I'll add to what others have said and mention that you can also buy a day pass that is good for unlimited travel on the bus, skytrain and seabus:

You can purchase passes from any authorized FareDealer, such as a 7-Eleven store, Safeway or London Drugs. You buy them and then 'scratch off' the day you want to use them, so you can, for example, buy four in advance.

A Vancouver bus stop looks like this:

Busier bus stops also have shelters that look like this:

Just a word. The service at the old, unionized White Spots is abysmal. Really abysmal. That at the newer ones is usually much better. I think the closest to you (W. Georgia and Seymour) is one of those old unreformed ones, as it the one further down on W. Georgia opposite from the Westin Bayshore. The Public Square or some such name (by the library) is also a good place to use a coupon..

Be aware that service at the Fish House never appears to fail to disappoint or at least be a let down, even when they're not busy. Food isn't too bad though...

I've never noticed that at White Spot, but have seen bad reviews of that bar/restaurant at Library Square.
