First time, I went to Cafe Deux Soleils was for Poetry Slam. It is one of the coolest cafes in Vancouver!
The cafe is very lively in the evening, as every day they have something going on. Mondays they have the poetry slam, improv on Tuesdays, open mic on Thursdays. Evenings are always lively and fun here.
My favourite events here are the Poetry Slam & the Improv nights. There is always some interesting thing going on each night.
The food here is really amazing, it is ONLY VEGETARIAN. You have been warned! It is still good for breakfast, lunch or dinner. This place will not disappoint you.
The cafe is located next to the the sky train station. It is quick to reach and always busy during the events -- there is a line up to get in. So come a bit early and enjoy a night of poetry slam or improv comedy!
You can find the list of things happening here.
