LOCALLY MINDED. RESPONSIBLY RAISED. MICHELIN RECOMMENDED.Housed in two of Vancouver’s most iconic buildings, Homer St Cafe and Bar is a contemporary restaurant set in the base of the historic Homer Building and the Beasley building in Vancouver’s Yaletown district. Classic comfort cooking takes center stage thanks to a fire engine red rotisserie that roasts all manner of proteins. It’s chicken that’s the star here: served in quarter, half or whole portions, accompanied by classic sides basted in jus. A decidedly adventurous wine and cocktail list rounds out the menu. The restaurant features two spaces that consist of an open concept kitchen “Chef’s Bar” where one can get up close and personal with the culinary team, a semi private dining room with reclaimed factory windows, and bespoke seating complemented by antique tiling.

The beef dip, to quote those who had it at my table, was the best they ever had! Services was good but a wee bit slow. Overall an excellent choice!

Dinner was perfect. Food and wine were delicious as usual. Chicken, brisket and ribs - so good. Stand out for the night was the exceptional service. We can’t think of a better experience. 21 years living in Vancouver and this was hands down the best dining experience. Thanks to the whole team - with special thanks to our server for making my birthday the best night out.

Great service and food and ambience as always at La Casita Gastown. We had a large group of 15 and they seated us all together no problems, no buyout required for a large weekend lunch booking. Ordered off the regular menu (not the set tasting menu or group order menu), servers were friendly and knowledgeable about the food items, with several good recommendations. Have been coming here for a few years and it's great every time. Thank you very much La Casita!
