Catch Kitchen + Bar

A relaxed atmosphere with sweeping views makes this an ultimate choice for dinner out any night of the week! The rooftop patio boasts panoramic views that will keep you coming back, time and time again. In addition to the view, the dining room is expansive making it the perfect spot for your next celebration. Casual, yet upscale with a menu that is just that - featuring plenty of options for the seafood lover in your life. If seafood isn’t your thing, not to worry – there is a selection of other dishes to choose from, all fresh and locally inspired.

Flying Beaver Bar & Grill

This is another place that is undeniably about the view! Nestled in a quiet corner of Richmond, on the Middle Arm of the Fraser River, the Flying Beaver Bar & Grill is a great place to grab a bite and take in a sunset. Located inside Harbour Air there are also plenty of opportunities to watch the seaplanes come and go. The menu features a wide selection of shareables, stone oven pizzas and more – making it a great place to meet friends for a catch-up session!

Blue Canoe Waterfront Restaurant

Another Steveston favourite, located right in the marina - Blue Canoe Waterfront restaurant serves up top-notch seafood in a stylish atmosphere. Dive into a three-tiered seafood platter or savour the soup of the day – each dish is prepared with enthusiasm and the intention to highlight the simple and fresh ingredients. Both the restaurant and the patio offer delightful views of the adjacent marina, making it a great spot to enjoy people watching and the hustle and bustle of Fisherman’s Wharf.

Summer is a time to enjoy the outdoors - hiking, biking and even patios. Next time you’re making plans to hit a patio with friends – put one of these excellent choices at the top of your list. They won’t let you down!
