Stage is our go to spot! It is a wine/tapa bar. The wine list is really good, but also reasonably priced. Food is stellar, staff are so friendly, and there is a wonderful vibe/ambiance.

Another local fave! Yummy baked sweet and savoury treats and desserts. 2 of our top picks: the Brioche cinnamon buns and the "loaded" foccacia bread!! Perfect as an easy appetizer for the whole family (we often bring this to dinner parties, etc.). They also offer a number of gluten free options, frozen goods (shepherds pie, sweet pies, etc.) and lunch/dinner options like pizzas, wrap's, quiche, etc.

Drinks & Nightlife
The Livet and Stage are owned by the same person, so there are some similarities - great food, wine, cocktails, etc. It too has a great vibe, though different. Being downtown it's a little more hip/young/"showy".

Parks & Nature
There are various trails you can take in and around Goldstream. If you are more active, the "Finlayson" trail is awesome! It is by no means an easy hike though. There are sections that are pretty steep and rocky. This is best hiked on a sunny day. The views from the top are TREMENDOUS and worth the effort!
