Cafés in Vernon
Coffee in Vernon starts early and travels far. Roasters pour along the downtown blocks around 30th Avenue, students and staff keep the shops near the Okanagan College campus busy during term, and morning traffic splits between ski shuttles heading up toward Silver Star and beach runs down to Kalamalka Lake. Hours shift with the seasons here, sometimes twice a year, so listings carry current times rather than assumptions.
