I'm going to be spending some time in Vancouver, BC soon. It's
reputed to have the best Chinatown in the Americas, so it ought to
have some good places for tea, right? Can someone suggest any? By
the way, there's no need to mention a Ten Ren/Ten Fu branch; I can
just walk to one (two, actually) from where I live.

This isn't what you were asking about-- but Murchie's tea is in
downtown Vancouver. Never been to their store myself, but used to
order from them. http://www.murchies.com/wwww/pender.php

I can only think of Murchies...not very exciting really...there's a
small teashop in RIchmond, but the lady was more keen to sell ginseng
than tea; Besttea used to have a shop off Alexandra street, but it
moved to Montreal I think...

Sorry, no help here...

I believe Lam Kie Yuen has a branch in Burnaby, BC, which is in the
Greater Vancouver area. There's also a few shops in Richmond,
although since I haven't been back to VBC for a while, I don't know
where they are exactly anymore. I think the Richmond stores are on No
3 road, not that that's much help...
