My partner and I came here for drinks and snacks, and discovered that SFB has brought on an incredible chef, Doug Lee, who's creating unparalleled dishes. We had his tasting menu, and were blown away by how thoughtfully made and tremendously flavorful each course was. We will be back again and again to have his food.
I had a group of 16 come from evening til close and planning with Manager John was a total BREEZE! They let us use their side function room that was perfect for some mingling with a long high top bar and two cocktail tables. It could easily have fit another 5 or even ten people if necessary and John was happy to accommodate some last minute changes in numbers for me. All of front of house were amazing. I kept a tab open and it was so easy just to shoot up and order and they’d have it ready for me asap. Special shout out to Annie!! She was the sweetest and you could tell she had pride in the craft when she helped me choose a cider for myself and some mega crowd pleasing jugs for my group. Not sure how long they’ll host Chef Doug Lee from Eluvian, but I hope to squeeze in a few more visits to try out some more of the a la carte menu. It definitely had something for everyone and for those that are tired of Vancouver’s typical food trends, there’s some totally unique combinations of flavours. It’d be a huge loss if you considered yourself a foodie and didn’t stop by.
My favourite brewery since I moved to here! Interesting/tasty rotating taps, cool art exhibitions and events, staff are sound.
