A word from Arms Reach Bistro

"Deep Cove is a crowd of discerning, food loving folks in flip flops" The Georgia Strait "This Bistro is one of those local gems that foodies like me dream of discovering but dread revealing for fear of exposing its virtuous flavours" Cathy Bullen "Simply Devine" The North Shore News

"We celebrated my husband's birthday and the view from our table was spectacular. The waitress was very accommodating in helping us take a couple of group photos. This is a great place to showcase the beautiful Deep Cove community. We will consider bringing our out-of-town guests here for a meal."

"Arms reach was a favourite when we lived in the area and is still a place we don't mind traveling to. My husband and I love the romantic setting and brunch and lunch are friend and family favourites.
The humous is amazing. Portion size is just right. Dishes are prepared to enhance the flavour of the course not mask it with a big sauce.
The staff is always friendly and efficient. Arms reach is definitely in our top five for the North Shore."

"We brought my mom here for Easter brunch and my eggs Benedict were perfect. Also loved the cottage fries (home fries? Hash browns?) which were crispy on the outside and tender inside - perfect again. However, the plate did lack colour (maybe a parsley sprig would help) and my husband's mussels came with no bread to sop up the broth. My mom was happy with her shrimp sandwich and we both loved the tarte tatin."

"This was our first time here, we wanted a nice place for dinner to celebrate our daughter's graduation and since we are not from the area we went based on reviews. We are so glad we did, the food & service were fantastic! We will absolutely be back."

"We booked this restaurant ( using Open Table ) as it is one of our favorites and this was a special occasion.
We made this reservation at least 6 weeks before April 5th .

We were a little disappointed as we had a choice of two quite noisy tables - especially as one was a center table. As this was a night when most of the diners needed to be out by 8 for a Play we mentioned to both the maitre de and our server that we were not in a hurry .
We placed our order and again said we were not in a rush - however, in very little time, both our salad and our main courses arrived together. We did feel rushed and although the food was as wonderful as it usually is , we left feeling a little disappointed."
