33 published restaurants Page 1 of 2 Vernon, BC

Vernon eats well at the head of the valley. 30th Avenue carries the downtown dining rooms a short walk from Polson Park, while the Highway 97 corridors and the Okanagan Landing lakeshore spread casual kitchens and family favourites through the rest of the city. Menus draw on the North Okanagan around them: ranch beef, dairy country, orchard fruit and lake fish. Every restaurant listed here was checked against its own website or confirmed by phone before going live.

The best time to SUP in Vernon: three lakes within twenty minutes

Vernon sits between Okanagan Lake's north arm, little Swan Lake and the road to Kalamalka. Which water suits which morning, where Kin Beach fits in, and how the north end's wind differs from the rest of the valley.
