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

Diner Reviews
  • "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."

  • "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."

  • "We had a lovely lunch with friends from Victoria and were very pleased with the food and service and staff"
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "One of the best restaurants I have been to in a while. Excellent seared scallops and duck breast. Service was excellent. Bonus: our waitress looks like Taylor Swift. Would definitely go back there again and again and again."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Although this restaurant has a great ambience and the server was excellent I asked for my salmon to be slightly undercooked and the result was an extremenly overcooked piece of fish."
    Dined on 2/7/2014
  • "Excellent lunch at Pier7. Had been several times before and it was always a "hit and miss." However it seems they have a new chef and you can tell. I had the mussels in white wine which came heaped high with long slice of French toast for dipping. I also ordered the fries, which were home made and delicious - came with mayo too for dipping. Server was gracious and attentive. When you get the food right and the service right, then it's a winner! View is always an added bonus. We will be back soon."

  • ".....just moved into LoLo and took my two friends for a 'late supper' last Friday evening (late because there weren't any reservations available until 8:30pm). Lovely surprise.... didn't know about the spectacular view nor the decor itself (nice!). The 'late for us' dining time meant we didn't want 'heavy' fare and we all found delightful food: my male friend, whose birthday it was, chose the bouillabaise and pronounced it the 'best in the lower mainland' (it's the 'red' kind and was, fortunately, not overburdened with potatoes). My girlfriend had a light prawn dish and I had beet soup accompanied with a most delicious beet salad! We''ll be back soon! Bonus: found pay parking at 8:30pm on a Friday evening 'right there'!"
    Dined on 1/31/2014
  • "I chose this restaurant to take my husband to for his birthday. We had never been there before. The ambience was nice; we had a window seat in a quiet area. The food was delicious. My one gripe is that I was still eating my starter when the waitress brought out our entrees! My husband had finished his starter before me and they had taken out his plate, but I was still eating and they put my entree in the middle of the table, where it sat going cold until I was ready for it. And because it was sitting there I felt like I had to start eating it straight away, without a break, because otherwise the food would go cold!"
    Dined on 2/1/2014
  • "Amazing view with great food. If your group is not 100% seafood compatible, avoid this place as everything has seafood in it. Nice place, just pricey."
    Dined on 2/11/2013
  • "Couldn't seem to cope with a full restaurant. Our server didn't remember who ordered what, we waited on dishes and drinks and initially the service was very slow. In fairness, though, they were very friendly and tried to make up with the disappointment of the service with discounts at the end of the meal, for which we were grateful and did not expect."
    Dined on 2/1/2014
  • "We liked the fact that the menu caters to those who want casual dinning, as well as those who want a more 'fine dinning' experience. The food was delicious, and our server was excellent! The wild mushroom risotto was creamy and full of mushrooms. The noise level was just right - not overly clattery, nor too hushed. I will definitely be back! Thanks for participating in the Dine Out Vancouver program."
    Dined on 1/30/2014
  • "was a beautiful sunny day when we lunched, so that really enhanced the experience. Look forward to dining in the summer on the outdoor patio."
    Dined on 1/31/2014
  • "It was my first time at this restaurant. I found the menu had interesting choices. All my food choices tasted great."

  • "We have had lunch several times there ,this was the first night time meal and it was a great experience with good food and great service and ambience.Very handy to downtown also"
    Dined on 1/28/2014
  • "The servers were very friendly and made us feel welcome. We met friends we had not seen for months and had a relaxed dinner catching up, we did not feel rushed at all. The Ahi tuna appetizer was especially good."

  • "Love the scenic and romantic environment with healthy delicious food, will definitely return"
    Dined on 1/20/2014
  • "I had the clam chowder soup appetizer which was a bit on the thin side but tasty. Braised pork cheeks for main course which were totally excellent. Bread pudding for desert which was perfectly OK and enjoyable but not outstanding. The service was terrific. Overall a very enjoyable experience and will not doubt be back at this restaurant."
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "The restaurant overlooks the harbour and at night the lights of the Vancouver skyline are reflected in the water. A wall of windows and elevated tables farther from the windows means a good view for all. The service was friendly, attentive but not invasive. The food was tasty and well prepared. Some restaurants become pretentious, trying to gain a reputation for trendiness. Here, the emphasis was on flavour and good ingredients. The Dine Out menu desserts were both milk based and when we asked if there could be a substitution because of lactose intolerance, the chef prepared a lovely replacement. We enjoyed the meal from start to finish and would love to return."
    Dined on 1/19/2014
  • "Food and service were great, no complaints at all. Found our table very close to the next and it was very tight at the bar getting to the front door. It was a foggy night but I know the view is out there for next time."
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "Hello. I have dined at pier 7 twice recently and on both occasions I found the food service to be on the slow side. Normally when you are out with you spouse or friend and have extra time to kill this wouldn't be too bad but we have two small children and going out for dinner there just takes too long, kids get hungry and restless. Our calamari was unfortunately not very tasty, it seemed to have so much breading and not much flavour. The reset of out meal was good and our table service as good."
    Dined on 1/14/2014
  • "Pier 7 could be a real gem but they continue to hire staff (manager included) that are not fit to serve the in the industry. Attention to detail aside, the amount of time we waited for everything (including our bill) was unbelievable. After we were seated it took over 5 minutes to even be acknowledged. The manager walked our way three times and didn't even look our way, she picked up a plate at an already served table and that was it! I'll say it again, unbelievable for such an awesome location. I won't name names here but our server was appauling. I truly hope that the fact we were two women at the table had no bearing on the subject but the men sure got a lot more attention that we did!"
    Dined on 12/28/2013
  • "This was our second time dining at Pier 7, and it was not nearly as good as the first time. There was food under our table when we were seated, and it had not been fully set. There were empties at both of two unoccupied tables next to us. They did not have the usual crayons and colouring menu for kids that most places, but were able to scrounge up a pencil and marker very late into dinner and my son had no interest at that point. Service was slow despite there being very few tables occupied. We ordered the tuna tacos appetizer, the calamari, and a bowl of fries for our son. tacos were too moist and unremarkable. Calamari was tasty and the fries were adequate. The virgin mojito was tasty and my dark -n- stormy was strong."

  • "Have been to this restaurant twice with same outcome both times. Food is poor quality/ poorly cooked. Other I know have had same experiance."
    Dined on 12/23/2013
  • "We have been to the restaurant twice. Our server (Krista?) was absolutely fantastic with our kids (who have allergies to eggs and nuts). She brought out allergy friendly bread that the kids loved. The bouillaibaisse was thicker than expected - i didn't enjoy it as much as the one I've eaten regularly at Monk McQueen's. The salmon was fantastic and good for the kids. The beet salad and calamari were great. We had the crumble for dessert which was also nice - and they replaced the ice cream with sorbet to accommodate the kids. We celebrated our 10th anniversary. The servers didn't bring anything special which was too bad - but it was still a great experience."
    Dined on 12/17/2013
  • "Have now been to this restaurant twice. Will not be going back. Mediocre. And so unfortunate as view is nice. Food mediocre to bland and unimaginative. Slightly more than White Spot and substantially less than Cactus Club"

  • "in my mind this is a replacement for the much loved cannery"
    Dined on 12/18/2013
  • "We really enjoyed our dinner and generally had great service. Our sommelier took us by surprise as we weren't expecting to have that type of service. However, it was greatly appreciated. Overall, staff was friendly, the food terrific, view amazing and we all had a memorable evening. Love having this restaurant as an option in North Vancouver."
    Dined on 12/13/2013
  • "Large plates, a bit pricey, we liked the pisco sour that was very well prepared and the bullabesa was delicious"
    Dined on 12/9/2013
  • "Beautiful view, quiet place. However, the menu needs to be re-looked. Menu options and taste need to improve. There are lots of other menu choices that can be looked and compared. Keep in mind that you are in a prime location in Vancouver. That and a good reputation for the menu selection are a win win. Good luck!"

  • "Brought a group of 12 to the restaurant to celebrate Christmas. The food was great. The view spectacular. The service was good."

  • "For a special occasion it was wonderful night. I loved the choice of the all in one menu for $33. The setting was very inviting as was all the staff."
    Dined on 11/24/2013
  • "Given the location, menus and exterior modern aesthetic, we were expecting much more (ie Vancouver's Lift). I was surprised by the pub atmosphere when we first walked in, and the dining room was reminiscent of a 90's hotel restaurant. The view could have been spectacular but the chunky window design obscured much of it. The menu looked promising but the food arrived lukewarm and tasted more like pub fare than fine dining. We also waited 20 minutes for our second course to arrive and when it did there was a mistake, so we had to wait longer. We ended up not even finishing the dinner. The food itself was much too expensive for what we got. This restaurant has potential, but needs a drastic makeover and rebranding."

  • "The food was awesome. Great improvement from when I dined here in the summer."
    Dined on 11/19/2013

  • "Great ambience, and location with a to-die-for view. My husband and I went for our anniversary on a Saturday night. We had the calamari to start, with NY Steak and the West Coast Bouillabaisse for mains, both were delicious. Servers were attentive and friendly. Would definitely go back!"
    Dined on 11/3/2013
  • "I've been here a couple times. It's been good each time. Not too expensive and good service and food options. I've only eaten in the bar, but the rest of the restaurant looks nice."

  • "The title says it all. Noise level was uncomfortable and made conversation very difficult."
