Babylon Cafe
Babylon Cafe is a Middle Eastern fast-food restaurant on Commercial Drive serving shawerma, falafel, kebabs, and wraps with house-made sauces and fresh daily vegetables. Founded in 2004 as a tiny Robson Street spot, it became a Vancouver word-of-mouth institution before expanding to two Metro Vancouver locations. The Commercial Drive outpost sits in one of the city's most vibrant and cycle-friendly neighbourhoods, making it a natural stop on a cross-city ride.
