Probably the main park attraction in Abbotsford. Very open with lots of pretty places to sit. And nice water park for kids. There's an area with big, tall trees that is cool to walk through The lake itself has a bunch of scenic spots There's a side where people can bring and board their boats (kayaks and stuff) and do a little fishing.

Gorgeous urban nature park with a 2.17 km paved pathway around a stunning man made lake complete with sizeable fountain. For bird enthusiasts, various water fowl and marsh birds can be heard and spotted, such as the red winged black bird. You might even spot a painted turtle sunning themselves! There are 3 playground areas, a water park, outdoor pool, picnic areas and baseball diamond. Plenty of open and shaded spots with park benches available, including a small floating dock for fishermen or anyone wanting to enjoy the lake breeze.

This is a great place to hang out with friends and family on a nice sunny day. Me and my husband usually come here for an after dinner walk. We love how relaxed and serene the atmosphere here. Bicycles are allowed here, pets on a leash are allowed except by the playground area. Washrooms are available and picnic tables are all over the place as well as benches. It’s a good 30-45 minute walk if you do the full circle. I like the bridge area the most especially during sunset. Also, I have seen a few men fishing by the dock and I have asked them what fishes are usually caught and they said it’s mostly trouts here. So, if you like to fish you can try it here. A lot of geese all over the place so watch out for land mines! Lol! Parking may be a challenge during peak hours. This place is friendly to all ages, wheelchair and stroller accessible!

The park is beautiful, well maintained and has a lot of nature. It is family and pet friendly. It has public bathrooms. It is a good place to practice many different sports including jogging and running. Also good for a picnic or to enjoy good time outside with family, pets and friends. The only thing preventing it to be 5 stars is that it does not have lights enough to enjoy it when it is dark.

Fairly nice park with pretty views. Paths are paved. Lots of parks along the loop, with playgrounds, washrooms, benches, and parking. Also a place to fish aswell as a boat ramp. Expect to see lots of ducks, birds and squirrels. Sadly a lot of homeless hanging out and camping in the area. Was approached multiple times while walking the loop which made me a bit uncomfortable as a young woman. Maybe not the best place to walk alone.

EDIT- this should be called Goose Lake, the park is just ripe with goose droppings. They’ve covered the walkways, paths, all the fields. It’s just absolutely disgusting! Other than that I could be beautiful park for humans but the geese have overtaken!!! My dog loves to go for walks around the lake but right now he doesn’t even want to walk the pathways and just directs to the sidewalk outside the park!

I loved this park, I went with my partner and my 7-month-old baby, we did the complete circuit, we were able to see many animals and plants, and the view of the lake is very beautiful. I recommend it

Beautiful park with a 2.5 km looped walking trail around the lake. You can see Mt Baker in the distance and there are benches and picnic tables around the park where you can sit and enjoy the view. There are parking lots scattered in different parts of the park and a big playground for kids next to each lot. Very clean and close to residential neighbourhoods. This is a beautiful park to visit for families, friends, and lovers.

Neat little art museum in Abbotsford. As an out of town visitor I was pleasantly surprised by the the amount of historical artifacts and information they have near the back of the museum about the town of Abbotsford. Entry is based on donation and the staff was friendly. Would recommend this place as a quick visit to other visitors.

Interesting Artist Installations. Liked the "Drawn From Water" exhibit, "When Microbes Dream" is an interesting collision of Art and Science- but my favourite Installation was the "Otherworldly" painting using salt water and the woollen exhibits. Well worth your time! You can bring the kids or pick up take-home paint kits for them.

For a small city, Abbotsford has a stunning museum. I visited during a Pro-D event and The Reach featured a Bangladeshi artist. The rest of the museum was a tribute to the first South Asian immigrants to BC. Our docent/curator was knowledgeable and friendly. The building's interior is deceptively huge. I heartily recommend a visit, and bring the kids; they have arts and craft activities for them.

Candy store
Sights & Landmarks
Clayburn Village Store is a charming attraction in Abbotsford, situated at the base of Sumas Mountain. Established in 1905, it was the first company town in British Columbia and offered various amenities to its employees. The village boasts several museums and cultural sites nearby. Visitors often stop by for a break during road trips and are delighted by the store's offerings. The shop provides an array of delicious treats, including homemade sausage rolls and nostalgic candies.
What a truly lovely 😍 & historical business. Staff were so friendly & accommodating. Sooo much variety of 🍬 candy...love the many British options as well as Dutch candy. I enjoyed a delicious Latte and my son had a fantastic frozen yogurt. I appreciate small businesses like this so much having been a small business owner/operator myself.
Sue — Google review
The village store is such a fascinating business to go to. I just wish I knew about it sooner because they have been in business for almost 40 years. They have a great variety of different candy, tea and even baked goods such as scones and pies to serve. They have some unique sweets like Cotton Candy Dr. Pepper, Reese’s Wafer bars, Karameller Swedish Candy and Candy Rock Sticks. They even sell a unique selection of beer; however, you can only have it when you are dining in their store. The interior countenance of the store is very old-fashioned yet appealing. There was an old but working fireplace, these historic industrial coffee makers and a lot of other old knick-knacks on display. The people who worked there were very pleasant and helpful too. I did not take any pictures or videos of the inside of the village store, out of respect for the owners and workers there. I would very much love to pay my patronage to the Clayburn Village Store again soon. For those of you that have not been there yet, go check it out.

The owners Trish and Bryan are kind , caring people who run a special shop . I’m never disappointed with their selection of British food and treats galore. Their home baked specialty pasties etc. are the best , their soups so tasty and made from the best local ingredients …. We’re so lucky to have them here !

A not to be missed experience. I especially enjoyed meeting and talking with Brian one of the store owners. Not only does he have extensive knowledge of the products in the store but he is so passionate about what he does. Walking around the store packed with items which in some cases are only available in this store, is an absolute joy. Products include British chocolates and candies, Chutneys, Jams, sauces etc.

What a spot! This place has everything for the sweet tooth in the family as well as some delicious savory fresh baked goods. The owners are incredibly welcoming and happy to have a chat to get to know you and tell you about the amazing history of this store. Its the true centre piece of Clayburn Village and its an amazing piece of community.

A cozy store with country charm and rare finds. Enjoy a blast from the past with gourmet food and candy. Located in historic Clayburn Village, this store has been serving the community since 1912. You will find a wide selection of gourmet food and candy, from local jams and honey to imported teas and chocolates.

A small shop at the back of a residential house selling body care and facial care products made with essential oils. Good quality, wonderful scent, and reasonable price.

Castle Fun Park is an amusement park located in Abbotsford, offering a wide range of family-friendly activities. The castle-like park features both indoor and outdoor facilities, including go-karting, bumper cars, mini golf, batting cages, and a large arcade with over 200 games. Kids can enjoy kiddie rides at the Wonder Farm Kids Zone and try their hand at the laser maze.
It was really fun! Mini golf costs $18 per adult, but it’s worth it—amazing interior design. There are lots of arcade games, ranging from $0.90 to $2.50. We spent around $50 for both of us. Parking is free!
Kateryna S — Google review
We had a great time visiting Castle Fun Park! There are plenty of games to enjoy, and the pricing for each one was quite reasonable. I’d definitely recommend this place for kids—but honestly, it’s just as fun for adults. After all, you’re never too old to be a kid again! We really enjoyed playing some of the shooting games, Racing, Mario Kart, and pinball. "Bumper car" was especially fun.mini golf is a must try. Unfortunately, we missed out on go-karting because we arrived too early—the track opens after 5 PM. Luckily, we still have our Castle Fun Card loaded with credit, so we’re looking forward to going back and trying the go-karts next time!

A nice arcade in a quiet area near Abbotsford. Go Karts open 5pm. There are plenty of games to play. Some are expensive like Underwater Golf but you can go along the kids even if you are not playing. The golf area is quite dated but nevertheless, kids love it. Laser Room is weird. Sometimes the game lasts 10 seconds. There are many more games upstairs including some real classic arcades like Contra. There is also mini bowling which is a great deal with the amount of turns you get. There is also dodging cars which is fun for the family. Overall, a nice place to spend 2-3 hours with the family.
Leegi B — Google review
Mostly arcade games, most of the machines are pretty old and don’t work as intended. Really wish they could upgrade the facility and improve on the concession snacks. Still this place is a great option for first timers and on rainy days. Staffs who work there are nice though.

Lots of out of order / broken games 10% maybe 20% for the older kids. The batting cages and outside still out of commission. The super young kids area is in good shape 100% functional. Food is well you know. Heat rack menu. Kids love it. Clean and tidy. Fairly busy - it is a rainy Sunday. Otherwise same old place as before.

Trethewey House Heritage Site is a must-visit for history enthusiasts. The site features the beautifully restored 1920s Trethewey House, along with other attractions like the Carriage House, Joeys Playhouse, Upper Sumas Train Station, and Sylvia Pincott Heritage Gardens. The house itself is an arts-and-crafts style bungalow constructed with local materials such as old-growth Abbotsford fir lumber and bricks and tile crafted from clay mined on Sumas Mountain.
A beautiful historic building with inviting floral gardens and recreational amenities on its border. This includes a 2.2 km walk around neighboring Mill Lake. A wonderful retreat for friends and family or a solo run.

For a wedding venue, Tretheway House must be very strongly considered. From a wedding photographers (Ken Pugh Wedding Photography), perspective, the opportunities for unique, creative photos at Tretheway are endless, and being so close to Mill Lake is a great asset as well.

The restaurant's chef, Jeff Massey, has gained local fame for his skillful use of the abundant produce from Fraser Valley's gardens and dairy farms. With a focus on simplicity and quality, the menu changes with the seasons to showcase the best ingredients from nearby producers.
Went for Valentine's dinner with my wife. It was so amazing the food is so delicious and the flavours are amazing I love every bite I take there! The service was great for such a busy night they did a phenomenal job. Every time I go there I have a tremendous meal and can't wait to go back!

We went for Mother’s Day 2025 and honestly left disappointed. The menu was super limited and none of the dishes really worked. The grilled octopus appetizer had a strange bitter taste, the fish had a red tomato sauce that didn’t match at all, and the short rib was dry even though it was tender. We were so unimpressed with the food that decided to skip the dessert. The staff were friendly and seated us early, which we appreciated. But overall, the food didn’t live up to the price. We won’t be going back.

The food was very delicious. We had the duck carbonara! The portion was small but it was rich and so it was perfect size. The best part, it was fresh pasta. We also had a tomato Burrata salad that was delicious. Pork belly was amazing in the corn soup sauce! The pork chop was juicy and not dry at all. Food was definitely great!

I finally had a chance to try snazzy Restaurant 62. I was not disappointed! For starters, their garbanzo dip with bread was amazing. And the potato gnocchi with wild mushrooms and brown butter, wow 🤌🏼! I forget what this dessert is called, but it was also delish!

One of my favourite restaurants ever! We are so lucky to have such a great farm to table restaurant in Abbotsford, that is so reasonably priced compared to similar places in Vancouver. I am always blown away by how good it is. Each dish is packed with flavour and you can tell it’s made with care. Service is always top notch. I’ve introduced this restaurant to a few people and they’ve been equally impressed. Their desserts and coffee are also incredible.

An esthetically beautiful restaurant with absolutely amazing service. Our waitress Sarah was incredibly attentive to our group. Cocktails were all delicious, great wine selections and the mocktails read to look to be tasty too. The presentation of all of the dishes were impeccable. My meal was very flavorful however, I should have went with my usual of a steak. I ordered the porkchop. Itself and the sides were cooked and spiced very well. The meal was well combined and flavored for a great taste. Hoever, the porkchop was very fatty and gritty with little actual meat. I will not fault Restaurant 62 as it can happen with this cut of meat. My friends meals were all delicious with no complaints.
Jessica — Google review
Synopsis: Worst service I’ve had in a while. Mediocre food with a fine dining price point. Many other places I’d prefer to spend time and money. More detailed review: Food: Muscles and carpaccio were good. Duck was bland. Gnocchi was incredibly doughy. Feedback from others in our group were regarding the scallops - 1 thought they were decent the other couldn’t finish as they found the dish was terrible (no specifics given). Porkchop was very tender. Dessert was equivalent to store bought. Drinks: Sangria was meh, as was the margarita. Service: Not once were we asked if we wanted another drink or a refill on water. I waited a solid 4-5 minutes longer than the other 10 people in the group for my meal, and had to ask for a fork. They didn’t check how the meal was or if anything else was required. Additional notes: this reservation was made a month prior so they would have had enough time to prepare. Because of the group, there was automatically an 18% gratuity for food and service that was so below what was expected, I can’t say that a tip above 10% would have been granted in any other circumstance, if at all. Unfortunately, we will not be returning and will not be recommending this restaurant to others.

Ripples Estate Winery & New Wave Distilling, located east of town and south of the TransCanada Highway, offers a unique selection of fruit wines, including a port-style blueberry wine and sparkling blueberry wine. The winery also serves creative cocktails on its excellent patio. While some visitors have noted the need for better cooling options and to-go containers for food, others have praised the friendly service staff and enjoyable offerings like charcuterie boards and cocktail flights.
I don’t believe the few 1 star reviews here. Probably either manipulated the story or are looking to be victims. Food was great – recommend the whipped feta with peaches & pistachios. The drinks were super balanced and tasted awesome. The owner came over and chatted and she seemed super nice – let us try the mango wheat beer(great!). If you’re booking / looking for a wedding venue – the reception area was gorgeous. The care and thought behind the plants and decor is evident. Would for sure go back!

Worth the detour and or a drive out of your way. Space is very nice, service was really good and drinks were fun and good. I'd definitely come back, they had a new bar tender so some drinks I feel were slightly off from what I would suspect them to be, but they are good none the less. This place makes for a beautiful drive out rain or shine and again is well worth a visit. I think they host a lot of events too which this place would be perfect for an event. I do wish they had a couple options for vegan besides just hummus but it's quite common out this way to not cater to vegan's.

Loved photographing this wedding from start to finish. Even though the rain moved the ceremony indoors, the venue was stunning. The bridal room is classic and elegant, filled with white details that give off such a wedding vibe. The large tent for the ceremony and reception was gorgeous—tall, bright, surrounded by greenery, and accented with beautiful chandeliers. I’d definitely recommend this venue to any couple! The only small drawbacks were a few puddles from the rain and limited signage to help direct guests, but overall, it’s a 5-star venue.

Banter Ice Cream, located in Jubilee Park near downtown, is a delightful spot inspired by lighthearted conversations and delicious ice cream. All of their flavors are made in-house using ingredients primarily sourced from the Fraser Valley. The menu features creative options like Earl Grey and Blueberry Basil, as well as vegan choices. Visitors can enjoy single or double scoops, 4-scoop flights, or take home pints.
Have been hearing nothing but good things about Banter and it did not disappoint! We started with a flight but ended up getting a second one because we just wanted to try more flavours after our first! Every single flavour is so unique, and my favourite was the lemon curd - by far the best lemon curd ice cream I have had! The homemade cone is also to die for. Staff is also super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend coming here for a sweet treat and I am sure you won’t be disappointed!

Very smooth yet dense textured ice cream that is delicious. Above average ice cream for sure. Lots of diverse flavours to choose from including classic flavours, creative flavours, and international flavours. Tried the vegan mango ice cream and it tasted like Asian mango pudding. It was very good but doesn’t have fresh mango fruit vibes, more mango flavour vibes. The sea salt caramel ribbon ice cream was delicious and creamy too. The scout mint was solid as well. Would recommend this place as an ice cream stop for sure

This spot is absolutely worth the drive – hands down the best ice cream I’ve had in the whole city!! 🍦 The flavors are rich, creamy, and made with top-quality ingredients. The waffle cone? Next level. Perfectly crisp, buttery, and fresh. It honestly tastes homemade and pairs so perfectly with the ice cream. What really impressed me too is that they have vegan options and they are good! The ice cream shop is located by the river making it a perfect place to go for some ice cream and a nice walk! I’ve tried countless ice cream shops in the city, but nothing comes close. Even though it’s far, I’d happily make the trip again and again. If you’re an ice cream lover (vegan or not), this is the spot.

Super popular ice cream shop in Abbotsford that is located in a local park and has a nice farm market there on weekends as well. This place can get busy as noted by the many signs directing people how to line up, but when we went, we got lucky there was only 2 people in front of us. They have a lot of the usual flavours but they also have some unique ones like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, which was delicious! They also make their waffle cones in house which is and added bonus. Overall, a solid ice cream shop, not sure if it would be worth the wait on a hot day, but on this day, it was perfect. The service is super friendly and helpful, and yes, you’re allowed to try before you buy.

Good selection with unique flavors. Tried the Cinnamon Toast Crunch and the strawberry rhubarb crumble and both were delicious. Some feedback for the store— would be nice for the cones to have paper wrappers as the staff just handed us a cone wrapped in a scrunched up napkin which didn’t feel really food safe, especially when they’re also handling the cash desk.

All the food I got tonight was old / over cooked and just unpleasant. Not sure if that is the normal fare. But take out was really bad. Got home ate not more than 2 bites. The beef is black and old you can see in the photos and that chicken has been cooked twice for sure Buyer beware Notice that there is zero reply from the owner as they must not care about the quality or customer satisfaction. Yet on the Five star reviews the owner jumps in for a "thanks". I would never recommend you eat at this location. Zero stars.

I love how they don’t make your soup spicy and give the hot sauce on the side, so you can put however much you like. We got a house beef pho and chicken pho. Perfect food, especially for a rainy day. The customer service is great as well, super friendly and accommodating staff.

I ordered the pho with beef balls and steak it wasn't bad but it wasn't the best either however it was a top 3 for all of the Fraser Valley the service wasn't bad nice and friendly staff . One thing I didn't like was that our pho was served with cilantro and lemon with bean spouts I personally would have preferred Thai basil lime and bean sprouts like a more traditional pho I'm not knocking this place down because I feel that they can improve on the little things to make it better . I will go back in the future a must try is their salad rolls . Ps it's much better then little Saigon..

They have a beautiful waitress. She is so sweet, and her service is excellent. I ordered house special pho and deep fried quail. I do not like the pho. The broth is relatively plain. The beef is too chewy. The deep fried quail is good, but not surprising, taste just like lemon grass grilled chicken.

Shania/server was amazing and so warm and patient with my dtr as she ordered. Food service is fast, delicious, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone coming through the town (worth the drive into the heart of their town proper) even though a bit off the highway.

A cozy neighbourhood diner that serves delicious home-cooked feel meals. I loved everything that we ordered especially the soup and pancakes. No wonder there’s a big line-up. But not to worry, orders come out fast and hot. The servers were so friendly and engaging. Special thanks to Asia for being so nice.

This place is like a portal back in time, and I mean it in a very good way. This is a perfect spot for a date or just even a fun time with friends or family! The food is good, it’s not something spectacularly, but consistently good food, the staff are very kind and make you feel welcomed. There is a lot of cool decor and photos to see, I love places like this because they have a taste and this place is for sure unique and contributes to Abbotsford’s food experience! This place also always has customers, not too hectic but it’s always a good sign to see that there are people and a lot of them are returning customers. I had two bacon and eggs with hash and French toast with peanut butter and jam as well as coffee with cream and I was more than satisfied! Definitely recommend!

My partner and I went in for a visit this afternoon for a quick brunch. We are quite literally obsessed with this place. This might even become a part of our weekly rotation. We have never literally finished the entire meal but the food is SO divine that it’ll be hard not to finish every single thing on your plate. We had one of the best experiences at this restaurant than we’ve ever had. Can’t wait to continue visiting and hope that everyone find themselves visiting as they deserve the business. 10/10 quality and the kindest staff!

Great little restaurant. The food is great. The menu is huge and had lots of options. The dining area is small so it fills up quick.

This is a great old fashioned diner. I got the Cajun Chicken Benny for brunch today and it was delicious. There was a wait for a table, but it was absolutely worth it. They quoted us 30 minutes and we were seated within about 15 minutes. I would absolutely recommend it and will be back!

I like the pancake and chicken tenders. Very good portion size. Service was good. Had to wait for 20 mins to be seated on a Sunday around 12 noon

Been coming here far a long while and didn’t realize that I did t post a review of Anne-Marie’s. Aside from the 50s Decor with the checkered board, Floors, the food here is remarkably outstanding! It’s perfect for breakfast and lunch, but breakfast is always been my favourite The staff here is very friendly, especially Angie, the snarky waitress 😁 She has an old diner, charm, and pizzaz to reel in the customers. Conveniently located and now it’s called the rail District, which is the old downtown of Abbotsford. Allen gives a big enthusiastic two thumbs up for Angie and the food that served here Allan
