Little Sister’s is such a special part of Vancouver. There’s a fantastic selection of books, gifts, cards and queer art, but what really stands out is how welcoming and inclusive the space feels. It’s more than just a bookstore - it has such an important history in Vancouver’s LGBTQ+ community and has been creating a safe, visible space for decades. The staff are friendly and helpful, and there’s always something interesting or unique to discover. Absolutely worth supporting and visiting whenever you’re on Davie!

Great store! Friendly services! Love this store since 1999 stepped in! Finally, after moving away downtown. Finally had the chance to walk into this store in 2026 again, managed to get a shirt that i been looking for. Sure lot of changes at this store since 1999. Deeply missed the original owners/manager at LSBAE.. Great new staffs and friendly, helpful!

This laundromat has been great for years. Machines are still good, though smell a bit of mildue. Prices went up recently to $5 per small load. That's wild. That price hike has to be past the point of diminishing returns, right?
