We met some friends at Silver Ball Social Club a few weeks ago. We didn't know there was a brunch…read moreoption, and we had already eaten before we arrived, so I can't comment on the food. We got the "free play" wristband, which allowed us to play about 25ish classic pinball machines in the back room. Unfortunately, the skee-ball machines (my weakness) and the Godzilla pinball were in the front of house and not included. The wristband was a good value, and I found a few machines that I enjoyed. Overall: + Free play wristband + Over 21 venue + Good selection of machines - It was uncomfortably hot in the pinball room - no AC or fan. - One of the games didn't have a right flipper button, so the only option was to stick your finger in a hole, which weirded me out. - A few machines weren't working when I cycled back

We walked in, were greeted immediately, we ordered the corn dog trio (we chose captain crunch, funyun and flaming hot), smash burger, Nashville hot chicken sandwich with fries, and the deviled eggs. Captain crunch corn dog was phenomenal, I did not expect it to be lol. The other 2 were meh IMO, the Nashville chicken sandwich was not hot at all, but really good, so were the fries, and the smash burger was amazing!!! I personally did not try the deviled eggs so I cannot give my opinion on that It was a Sunday night and they were having karaoke, KJ was solid, but the vibe was awful for it, maybe it's because of the setup? Separation of KJ space and patrons? Idk, the people there just didn't seem into it. From ordering and food drop off the service was good, nothing over the top but no complaints. I'd go back for the snacks again!

In the late summer, early fall the fruit and produce is abundant! Juicy peaches, plums, cherries, the last of the blueberries and blackberries, rhubarb, eggplant, tricolored peppers, and beets fill the stalls. everything so colorful and delicious. Was excited to happen upon the Catnip Takeout booth filled with the most adorable handmade, felted cat toys that of course contain catnip. The owner gives you a takeout box and you fill it with the toys of your choice. She had veggies, mushrooms, hearts, eyeballs, bees, round balls, fruit- all adorable! since my house is very spa like with shades of cream, gray and blues, I was excited to find so many options in these colors. My cat immediately began batting the ball around the minute I gave it to her! The nursery here is the biggest and best I've ever seen at a Farmers Market. The variety of plants was impressive and all were healthy and thriving. they also sell sun catchers, perfect for inside a window or in your garden - every garden deserves a bit of whimsy imo. Lots of food carts serving a variety of cuisines. some are within the market, several more line the street on the outside of the market. The gyros caught my attention, the scent of grilled lamb everywhere. it didn't disappoint! I ordered the mega traditional which had extra meat so I could have half for lunch and the other half for dinner. Love that this market is open both Saturday and Sundays until 3pm April through October. Saturday they open at 9am; on Sundays they open at 10am. Parking is on the street, use parking kitty to pay. On a Sunday at 12:30 I had no issue finding a spot close by.

There are fresh fruits and vegetables; honey; smoked fish, and prepared foods not on a truck. Plus there are food trucks. There are rows of arts and crafts. Candles, clothes, and other household items can be found; I even saw knife sharpening. Basically, you could skip the grocery store and Home Depot and just shop local artisans. The highlight was fresh heirloom tomatoes that looked incredibly tasty, They oozed freshness and flavor. Since we are in a hotel, we did not buy any but they looked like they would be an excellent salad. Everyone (vendors) were friendly and seemed to know their repeat customers. Market-goers (customers) were having a good time. There is an area for kids go play. The ambiance is laid back and family friendly. We'll be back in Vancouver and plan to return again. It's a great way to spend some quality time with the family in gorgeous summer weather.

They have everything set up for you and they have aprons available but I definitely encourage you to bring clothes you don't mind getting dirty. The instructor was great - she goes over a step by step demo and then with the whole class the instructor goes over the steps again and you end up with a piece of your choice. I ended up having time to make 3 pieces in total. Highly recommend - very fun and a nice challenge!

I believe it's $7 to play games (flat fee) my friend talked to the server while I was checking out games and he paid so it could be an hour? We were there for a full hour so sorry if wrong info! I was honed in on playing sega so I did not pay attention to the other consoles, but I added a picture. I wish they had sega genesis The only negative to the bar from my short visit is the music, it sounded like the music that's played in a horror movie during an attack LOL. A bit tooooo dark and eerie, maybe a bit more of a mix and some upbeat sounds would be better. I don't knock the people that enjoy that music but it dulled my vibe. Anyway, would be a great place with a handful of friends, I'll be back I'm sure!

That extra depth made the experience even more enjoyable for me.

It's a free museum that houses many artifacts related to aviation history tied to Pearson Field and Vancouver Barracks. Quite interestingly, the museum discusses the Spruce Mill (which is located quite literally on the ground you're standing on) which produced lumber for planes during WWI. It ran 24/7. There are lots of planes here on display, and also houses the first plane flown by Leah Hing. She's the first Chinese American woman to earn a pilot's license in the United States, and paved the way for aviation for future generations to come. There's also a small balcony area dedicated to the Chkalov transpolar flight. Three men flew sixty-three hours and sixteen minutes over the North Pole, from Moscow to Vancouver. The landing at Vancouver was unplanned as they were running out of fuel, but they had a warm welcome here. Overall, the museum was very informative and a great way to spend a few hours.

Alexander Pearson, an aviator who set airspeed records in the 1920s. During the interwar period, Pearson Field became a hub for innovative aviation, seeing visits from famous pilots like Charles Lindbergh. This is a must do! It's free and amazing.
