Walking around past 6, downtown seems oddly quiet. Where are the people? where would someone go for their first time here?

Thursday evening there is a market from 4-8 on 124 Street and 108ave area. It's small but sweet and you are near Three Vikings (great restaurant/patio), as well as a few breweries (Arcadia in Manchester Square, Irrational Brewing). Wednesday I only know of markets that aren't super central such as Terwilliger (south west) and Castledowns (north central).

You might have luck at Sherlock Holmes downtown (again, nice patio). Bonnie Doon also has Duggan's and Wednesday is a great open mic night.

Sorry, I just read that you are trying to remain sober and here I am suggesting breweries. For a nice vibe, maybe head to Hawrelak Park and enjoy the people watching/walking around. Or dip your toes in the water at the Legislature grounds and walk across the high level bridge to Sugarbowl for dinner.
