Getting Here
🚇 Transit
Your best bet is the #20 bus, which runs frequently along Commercial Drive and connects directly to the Commercial–Broadway SkyTrain station. Getting here by transit is far easier than trying to drive.
🚗 Parking
Don't count on finding parking easily. Metered street parking on The Drive is notoriously scarce and competitive, so be prepared to circle the residential side streets and walk a few blocks.
