There is a lengthy history with the Ovaltine. With a neon sign that is still bright and two stories high, it’s a piece of unaltered Vancouver. The retro room could have gentrification vultures rubbing their hands. And then there\u2019s its social value \u2014 this isn\u2019t just a cool relic, it\u2019s the real thing, a no-pretensions diner providing locals with low-cost meals.<\/p>

The restaurant opened in 1942 and, in some ways, hasn\u2019t changed much, from its neon sign to the classic diner interior. \u00a0In fact, the aesthetic is so striking that the cafe has been featured in a variety of film and TV productions, including the X-Files, Supernatural and I, Robot.<\/p>

While the Ovaltine has been in business since the 1940s, it\u2019s been owned by Grace Chen, since 2014. \u00a0Grace has had a long time connection with the neighbourhood, starting off at the\u00a0Save on Meats. \u00a0After it was sold to Mark Brand a chance\u00a0presented\u00a0itself for the Ovaltine and Grace jumped in. \u00a0 For her, that connection with the neighbourhood continues to drive the business. with her main goal to keep prices affordable for locals \u2014 to hiring local staff to help in the kitchen to the menu, which she said has grown based on suggestions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
