We’ve all seen and heard about the typical birthday freebies you can get all over Canada like the Starbucks drink and the Sephora sample set, but it’s worth mentioning that tons of local Vancouver businesses are willing to go that extra mile as well and celebrate your special day with you.
Here’s your comprehensive guide to local businesses that are worth discovering on your birthday.

This local chain has two locations in the city and gives you a delicious free donut on your birthday. It’s very simple, all you need to do is show your ID to prove it’s your birthday.
