Coal Harbour

About the restaurant

Since 1975, this popular breakfast, brunch and lunch spot has satisfied the hunger cravings of British Columbians thanks to a tasty menu of sweet and savoury treats. Arrive hungry and order the signature Dutch Pannekoek, which tastes similar to a North American pancake but is only slightly thicker than a crepe. Fun fact: the large pannekoek can be cut into 113 square one-inch bites. Popular toppings for this substantial meal include The Canadian with bacon, eggs, tomatoes and maple syrup, and The Trail Mix with trail mix, honey and hot cinnamon-dusted apples. Located in the Convention Centre West, the Burrard Landing location offers stunning views of Stanley park and the North Shore.

This is a go to spot for our family meet ups - such a wonderful place to enjoy a breakfast overlooking the stunning Vancouver harbour. On this day we experienced excellent food and service as usual. I enjoyed fresh orange juice and an apple cinnamon pannekoek with syrup and whipped cream, plus coffee.

The food presentation and the food server were excellent. Way better than Carlino. Even your Front Guest Services Staff was so gracious. I lived around the area for a while that I didn't realize it is more than a Cafe, it is a great place for people to hang out and reconnect. Thank you for the great experience. Keep it up.

We were going to go to a posher restaurant to celebrate our anniversary but decided we'd rather go to a full-on vegetarian restaurant rather than just have a fancy restaurant's one vegetarian option. Meet is a very casual restaurant with quite a millennial vibe and has an excellent and varied fully vegetarian menu. Service was excellent. The "Vegetarian Calamari", which I think should just be called "Battered Oyster Mushrooms", was the best dish we had.
