Situated in historic Gastown at 300 Water Street, Water St. Café has been a Vancouver landmark since 1988. Housed in a beautifully restored 1906 heritage building, it blends classic Italian cuisine with West Coast influences and fresh, local ingredients. Paired with an award-winning BC-focused wine and beverage list, the menu features everything from handmade pastas and seafood to brunch favourites and tapas. With its warm, relaxed dining rooms and regularly scheduled live music, it’s a place where elegance meets neighbourhood charm.
