A word from PIER 7 restaurant + bar - 'Shipyard Square' North Vancouver
With 180° views of Vancouver, from the bustling Port to the green belt of Stanley Park, no other restaurant in North Vancouver gets you this close to the water. PIER 7 is built on the boardwalk of the historic Victory Shipyards in the revitalized waterfront of the Lonsdale Quay area. The restaurant… is open 7 days a week for lunch, brunch, and dinner, with ocean view dining on two levels and outdoor dining featuring a fireplace and comfortable seating on two patios. The menu is seafood focused, with an emphasis on boat-to-table choices, and seasonal offerings of meat and poultry. The lively bar area is a favourite stop after work for professionals coming home on the nearby Sea Bus and the burgeoning ship building industry adjacent to the pier. We look forward to welcoming you to the North Shore’s newest neighborhood restaurant and lounge built in the most historically significant area of North Vancouver. See you at PIER 7 soon!Continued

  • "Great spot will be going again...caught the happy hour and special on local oysters.... Mixed it in with the night market. Well worth and will bring my out of town guest there. Service / Portion Size / Food Quality / Ambience and View .... frankly it has it all....Thanks"

  • "We love having a spontaneous night out and that was exactly the case this week as we hit Pier 7. We have enjoyed this venue a number of times and I never hesitate to return. We easily booked, got our special request taken care of and for myself...well I can't sit at the first table offered. Hence, the new table next to the water on the patio was excellent. Quiet and personal. Good food, Pascal gave us great service...a successful night out!"
    Dined on 7/8/2014
  • "My prawns were over done making them tough and having a charred taste. On the other hand the scallops were done perfectly. The hamburger dishes that were ordered were thought to be sandwich like on bread but were presented on a hamburger bun. No other complaints about the quality of food though and service was excellent. A fabulous view was enjoyed."

  • "this was our first visit and we were very impressed. We will return!"

  • "Met a good friend for dinner here, had a novice server who let us know it was his first day on his own. He did just fine, a couple of small glitches but rectified immediately. The food was very good, had the crab cake which was excellent, but portion was very small, and diver scallops with risotto, also very good. The noise level got a little louder as we were finishing our meal, which I don't like. When I am dining I would like to converse with my friend without having to raise my voice to be heard. All in all though, a very nice experience, and the view is to die for!"
    Dined on 6/17/2014
  • "Terrific way to see more of the city by taking the Seabus to North Van then a very short walk to this restaurant on the water. Wonderful views back to the city, large deck and facing south so sun all day, and probably great sunset in evening. Food was fine, but nothing outstanding. Good bet for visitors for a pleasant trip across the harbour for lunch or dinner"

  • "I reserved a table for my family for Father's Day. We were originally seated at a beautiful table with a great view but we relocated due to a planning error to a table with an obstructed view. My father and I both ordered the clam pasta and after our order was taken, we were notified that they have run out of fresh clams but will be still putting canned clam meat in the pasta. Unfortunately, we only received one fresh clam in our pasta each and the texture of the canned clam meat was dry and chewy. We ordered dessert and waited a lengthy amount of time for our dessert as the kitchen was running behind. Over all, I was very disappointed in the restaurant service and quality. The view was amazing from our original table though."

  • "Have been to this restaurant a couple of times. Service and food are very good. The view is the best part. Tried making a reservation for the patio but was told upon arrival that reservations only cover inside seating. Doesn't make sense to me but oh well."
    Dined on 6/5/2014
  • "We had a great time, service was perfect, food was great...table was unbelievable...best view in North Vancouver"
    Dined on 6/3/2014
  • "Went to celebrate out anniversary. Beautiful spot on the water, similar to The Sand Bar. Would have appreciated receiving a dessert or at least being sat at an especially romantic, quiet table (rather tham the patio seat by the door) as we were there for a special occasion but I guess not all restaurants to do things like that or perhaps it was overlooked. Would go back again- as that's not what it was about, but would certainly have made our evening especially memorable. "

  • "I think this is the best location and view on the North Shore, it is wonderful to be at waters edge with lots to look at. Charming servers and good food !"
    Dined on 5/23/2014
  • "I had ordered the pier 7 burger and was brought the grilled chicken sandwich. After eating a few fries I was than told I was brought the wrong burger. The server took it away and was told my pier 7 burger went to another table and apologized and said the chef had to make a new one and that he was going to talk to the manager. 15 mins later I was brought the food and not once were we asked how the food was and no manager was brought over to speak to us and nothing was done to our bill.This was my first experience at this restaurant and I would not recommend this place to any of my friends as the service was not great."
    Dined on 5/22/2014
  • "One of the best VIEW restaurants on the North Shore, menu needs a bit of work, very friendly service, lots of parking available."
    Dined on 5/21/2014
  • "Restaurant has a lovely view. Food and wine and service was great"
    Dined on 5/18/2014
  • "Very nice setting/venue. Great views! A good brunch selection on the menu. Friendly/helpful staff, and good service. I had a reservation but the place wasn't crowded, so it felt like an undiscovered gem of a brunch spot in North Van. We sat inside, but there was a great patio overlooking the water. We had a baby with us and they were very accommodating. I only didn't select 'kid friendly' above, because it's such a nice place, and at a busier time, maybe it wouldn't be an ideal spot for kids. Only complaints were the Smoked Salmon Benny was average, and my meal said it comes with fries or salad, so I ordered salad, and then got charged extra for it on the bill?? Good place overall though, and the coffee was good and strong too!"
    Dined on 5/18/2014
  • "Great food, great service and outstanding view and ambience."
    Dined on 5/17/2014
  • "For a weekday the restaurant was very busy. Service was very slow, although server was very nice. Found the food to be overpriced. Shared items was good. We ordered both salmon quinoa and the beet salad. Salmon was very dry and the beet salad was more of an appetizer. Beautiful view!"
    Dined on 5/13/2014
  • "Went for Mothers day brunch, Salmon Benny was very good. Nice setting, we sat inside. The patio was full and noticed that it was protected from the breeze, looks comfortable. Went for a nice walk along the waterfront and took in the history of the shipyard. Another great feature is the dock access when coming from the water for an afternoon break. will hold boats up to 20 meters for 3 hrs. Upstairs was closed, however offers a great spot for large gatherings and socials, nice spot for staff Christmas party."
    Dined on 5/11/2014
  • "My daughter took me to Pier 7 for Mother's Day brunch. It was outstanding. Everyone was welcoming, the service was wonderful and the food was great. It was a very positive experience. As we were leaving, we saw our server running back across the parking lot. Her last customer had forgotten to take his credit card and she chased after him to return it. Now, I call that service above and beyond! Thanks Pier 7 for making my Mother's Day even more special."
    Dined on 5/11/2014
  • "We were a party of three celebrating a special birthday and were seated outside with a spectacular view over the harbour. We all had fish of some kind - crab cake, salmon and halibut - all this was very well prepared and delicious. Although Pier 7 was busy, we didn't feel hurried and could have stayed longer. The glass surrounding the patio, the glass windows and the glass awnings all make the sound reverberate around - but it was manageable."
    Dined on 5/1/2014
  • "The view at Pier 7 is outstanding and the location is fantastic. We strolled over to the Lonsdale Quay afterwards. The food is fresh. The beet salad looked lovely. The service was adequate but not the best. We were seated near an open door that was cold and drafty. I asked to have the door closed but it was left open. I got up and closed it myself but it was still opened again. We had to ask to have our coffee refilled. The toast was missing from our order. They forgot to bring jam for the toast and we had to ask. On other visits, the service was better. Otherwise, we enjoyed our brunch and the tasty food."

  • "Took too long to get food. Great ambience though very noisy. Nice scenes of downtown Vancouver"
    Dined on 4/25/2014
  • "The food at this great restaurant is always consistent and good. It is set right on the water of a busy harbour so offers much to view. Recommend"
    Dined on 4/19/2014
  • "The food was excellent and our server had great suggestions. The view was specactular. "
    Dined on 4/18/2014
  • "We had some business people here from Chicago and wanted a place on the water for the view. The table was awkward for the servers, too tight to the table next to us, and right beside the patio door that kept on opening. It was loud because of the music and even though there weren't very many patrons, the service was nonchalant. I had originally booked lunch there this week as well to celebrate a friend's birthday, but was so disappointed that I cancelled and we are going to a different place. It's a great location but they need to decide who they are appealing to."
    Dined on 4/14/2014
  • "Great food, great atmosphere and view of the harbour."
    Dined on 4/12/2014
  • "We have been going to Pier 7 since it opened several years ago. Started out as a nice quiet good neighbourhood restaurant. Seems like lately the noise level in the restaurant has become so loud my wife and I couldn't even carry on a conversation at our table. The music volume is turned up so high everyone in the restaurant is yelling to be heard. Won't be going back anything soon."
    Dined on 4/4/2014
  • "We went for lunch and it was quiet business crowd, however, ive been before for dinner. The food is so-so; perhaps a hit and miss place. I had a quinoa salad that was dry and salty, but the broccoli soup was great. I like this spot for the ambience not the food."
    Dined on 4/3/2014
  • "We made a last minute reservation and didn't know what to expect. All the staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Mike our waiter was a true professional. He knew the menu, explained things easily, and answered our questions. He was attentive but not over-bearing--a true professional. We will visit again next time we are in Vancouver. It is a true gem that we highly recommend!"
    Dined on 4/2/2014
  • "Went here because it was close to our hotel & was next to the water. The menu looked terrific and we ordered the seafood nachos to start with gnocchi and ling cod as the mains. The plate of nachos was huge, unfortunately they were just nachos. Very little seafood in them and there were a couple of bites where we got something so spicy it almost ruined the whole meal. The gnocchi was fantastic, best dish of the night. The ling cod was terrible, the fish was chewy and tough. The curry sauce for the cod was bland and was like watered down soup, the veggies were all over cooked and the wilted spinach was soggy green blobs of tastelessness. Overall the service was good, a little slow but very friendly and always there when we needed something."
    Dined on 4/1/2014
  • "My wife and daughters arrived and were seated in the patio. Twenty minutes passed before we even saw our server. We ordered drinks and asked for water. We waited another 15 minutes before we decided to leave and find another restaurant. Thirty five minutes and not even a glass of water. They should be ashamed of themselves."
    Dined on 3/17/2014
  • "The food would have been poor quality at a moderately priced pub. It was overcooked, flavour profiles didn't work, and the food was swimming in butter. The New York Steak was the consistency of shoe leather, with about the same amount of flavour. The cauliflower risotto had huge pieces of cauliflower, and I had to search for the rice risotto. On a positive note, the fries were good. The side salad for $6 boasted fresh ingredients. Not once did our server offer to "freshen up" our water. Nor was there an offer to "freshen up" the $3 coke. This could be because we did not order alcohol."
    Dined on 3/14/2014
  • "Food is good here, waitresses are not too well informed."
    Dined on 3/12/2014
  • "Beautiful location and views. Nicely appointed interior. Sevice was good. Food was disappointing - had the oyster po-boy which would have been better without all the bread and batter. Coleslaw did not taste fresh. Menu really needs revamping. This restaurant COULD be fabulous."
    Dined on 3/11/2014
  • "Food quality was good to great, depending on what you ordered. We ordered the specials, of which some were already unavailable, even though we got to the restaurant @6:00 PM. Perhaps Cook under-ordered or underestimated the popularity of some of the specials. Staff were courteous to a fault, coming back a bit too often, and interrupting our conversation with the usual "how's everything?" Even so, a quality restaurant with great food and a great view."
    Dined on 3/9/2014
  • "We were given a gift certificate from our son for Christmas and decided to go to celebrate our 45th anniversary and found it wonderful! We went again 6 days later when a friend came to visit from Miami. Both times we found the tastes to be amazing. My husband had the bouillabaisse both times because it was so good. Enjoyed the lights of the harbour. The service was friendly and over the top when our guest had food allergies to certain foods."
    Dined on 2/21/2014
  • "One certainly isn't encouraged to linger. We were met with a warning that online reservation only entitled us to 90 minutes for our dinner, but given the food quantities involved, this doesn't present a problem. The portions are minute. We opted for the 4-course set menu, book-ended with a bisque served in a tiny espresso cup, and a cheese-cake the size of a Lego brick. The fish entree barely extended to three mouth-fulls. While the location is breathtaking, make sure you eat before you go. At these prices, there's a better time to be had elsewhere."
