Senor Froggy 's is a local Mexican grub place. It is budget-friendly and has quick service. If you're craving Mexican but don't want fancy prices, this is a great place to go. They have a large restaurant for eat-in as well. It is great for families! They also have Italian food with home-cooked sauces for those that are not into the spice and beans ;)

This place has home cooked food and many vegan, GF or allergy friendly options. It has a cool vibe to it, with local art on the walls (that is for sale). It can get busy at lunch, so arrive early. I don't think it's open for supper just FYI!

Great restaurant with beers made in-house. Popular Kamloops place to have drinks with friends after work or go to on a Friday or Saturday night. Beautiful patio as well. No live music but maybe that will change!

This Casino is huge, has live music and many restaurants. It is super fun to go to if you're looking for a random night out. They also have shuttles to take you home - there is one shuttle that will even take you from the casino back to our place for FREE (w/ tip). You just have to ask the lady at the front desk!

Kamloops' newest brewery/pub. I've yet to go but have heard great things! It is located next to the Noble Pig (one of my favourite restaurant/breweries in town). Might as well do a Kamloops brew tour as Red Collar Brewing is also in walking distance!!

Everything Else

Schubert Drive has a paved walking trail that goes from just below our house on the water, all the way to the Overlander bridge to downtown. I often go for runs from our home to downtown (6.5kms each way) as it is a flat, beautiful path along the river!

Shopping

This place is a shopping gem in Kamloops, offering everything from housewares, to clothing to Fluevog shoes. It is the go-to store when I want to find someone a gift. It is also owned by a local woman who is very fun & spunky.

Far & Wide is a locally owned shop full of amazing and unique items. They focus on having Canadian-made items, so you know I love to shop here. You may even find some of my husband's "Jon Smith Originals" serving boards there for sale ;) They are located downtown Kamloops.

Arts & Culture

The Kamloops Art Gallery has an amazing gift shop with items from a lot of local artists. It is also one of my go-to places to find gifts. Their stuff is very unique and you can find something in any budget. The Art Gallery itself is also a cool activity to do, and as it's attached to the library, it is also great for families!
