Located in the Shipyards District, the Pier 7 Restaurant + Bar is a North Vancouver ocean-front restaurant that specializes in seafood.

Pier 7 is a great place for lunch, dinner, brunch and drinks, especially on the patio on warm sunny days. The restaurant serves excellent food and has some of the best views in the region. It’s located at 25 Wallace Mews in the heart of the Shipyards in North Vancouver.

Restaurants related to the Pier 7 include The Lobby (also in North Vancouver’s Shipyards District), Tutto (which is a great Italian place in Yaletown), and the P2B Bistro (which is at the Pinnacle Harbourfront Hotel in downtown Vancouver). All of them are very good!

Pier 7 Restaurant + Bar in North Vancouver

Pier 7 is an upscale seafood restaurant and bar situated right on the North Shore waterfront. Although the restaurant is in a stand-alone building, Pier 7 is related to the Pinnacle Hotel at the Pier and The Lobby Restaurant which are on the other side of Shipbuilders’ Square just a 60-second walk away. In fact, the hotel and both restaurants are owned by the same local company.

The Pier 7 restaurant offers stunning views of Vancouver’s skyline from the Shipyards District. When we visited for lunch recently, we sat at a corner table inside, facing south towards downtown Vancouver. Tall windows provide natural light and scenery.

We had an unobstructed view of the ocean, Vancouver’s downtown skyscrapers, seaplanes landing every few minutes and the majestic cruise liners berthed at Canada Place across from the North Shore.

Pier 7 also has a very popular covered outdoor patio that’s heated during cooler times of the year. In the summer, there is live music three evenings per week. The restaurant also has seating upstairs for even more beautiful views. Dining upstairs, though, is open only from 6:00 pm onwards

Menu Descriptions

Pier 7 specializes in seafood, but the restaurant also offers other dishes along with a fully stocked bar. Short descriptions of each menu are below.

Brunch, Lunch and Dinner

Brunch at Pier 7 is available on weekends and holidays. It runs from 10:30 am until 2:00 pm. There are breakfast classics like seafood benedict dishes, waffles, pancakes and more. Also available are things like breakfast poutine and steak.

Pier 7 has one menu for both the afternoon and evening. There are several starters and sharing plates, including clams, mussels and seafood chowder. Various salads are offered as well. There are beef, salmon and chicken burgers served with seasoned fries. Other main dishes include blackened salmon with grilled prawns, steak with lobster, fish and chips, and more.

Items we’ve had and loved in the past include mussels which came in a delicious white wine sauce. We’ve had tiger prawns as a starter, served on a bed of ice, a wedge of lemon, and a dipping cocktail sauce. We’ve had the burrata (cheese) appetizer, which was amazing. As well, we’ve really enjoyed the blackened salmon and prawns.

More recently, on a newer menu, we had the poke bowl, chicken burger, truffle steak and steelhead salmon. All were great, as was the chocolate lava cake and tiramisu.
