If you are anything like us you still have a few last minute holiday gifts to pick up! Luckily in Vancouver there are no shortage of great local shops, perfect for this exact dilemma. The gifts that perplex us on a yearly basis are, the hostess gift, a present for the teacher, and a little something for your boss. Stress no longer. Here are the shops of choice to make everyone in your life feel special.
Gastown
Örling and Wu. – There are some amazing stores in the revitalized Gas Town area but our favourite gift shop is Örling and Wu. The Prince Vladimir, Kusmi Tea makes a great gift.
China Town
Charlie & Lee – This little spot in Vancouver’s China Town has a lovely assortment of items perfect for the hostess with the mostess!! We are in love with the Picot Collective Honey Tobacco Candle, and we think she will be too!
Main Street
Main Street is full of great shops but these 2 top our list for the season of gift giving.
Much & Little – This is a beautiful little shop with some great options for the foodie in your life. We love their collection of cookware and cutting boards, great for the chef on your list.
Still Life – We know that Still Life caters to both men and women but it’s an especially great place to get the perfect gift for “him”. Their selection of Filson bags is awesome and will be a lovely surprise for your man this Holiday.
Cambie Village
Walrus – Maybe our favourite of the bunch, although it’s too hard to choose just one. This is such a cute little boutique with just the nicest collection of interesting and beautiful products.
The ceramic jugs by now local artist Russell Hackney are stunning and cleaver and would make a great gift for friends or family.

Delish General Store – This shop located on Granville Island is such a fun place to browse for gifts. If you are looking for a secret Santa gift or something playful try the Real Life Award Ribbons, everyone should celebrate finishing a Netflix binge session!
