The origin of The Story Café emerged from the mantra “There is a story in everything”So in 2018 when we fell upon a 30 year old warehouse, we saw the potential to transform the abandoned space into a warm, hospitable, unique eatery. Through consistent innovation, research and dedication we managed to blend our affinity for coffee, music, food and antique into a ambient mélange of vintage and nostalgia. Today, we proudly present our eatery to newcomers and are considered a staple in the Richmond community! We are excited to share with you that our restaurant has been voted for the OpenTable Diners’ Choice 2023 and 2024 award for multiple categories in Vancouver! This prestigious award is a testament to our commitment to providing exceptional dining experiences and top-notch service to our customers.Vancouver / British Columbia best for : Live Music and Contemporary AmericanVancouver Suburbs best for : HotSpot

    We went to blue canoe for dine out which was great, initially the appetizers took a while to come out, but after they did it was smooth sailing from there. The Risotto was really well done, crab cakes were nice, and overall we really enjoyed the experience. We were also in a rush to pick someone up from the airport, and after asking to receive the entree and dessert together, the wait staff was able to oblige to get us out faster. All in all, great seafood house in a great location.

    Jamoneria is definitely worth the experience. They serve quality meats and have wine pairing options that are a must-try. The staff are also really knowledgeable. The ambience wasn't as I expected as the seats were quite uncomfortable. Also, while we were there, there was a big group that was extremely loud so that made it a bit annoying --we couldn't hear what the server was saying and had difficulty conversing with each other. The place is not too big so their voices and laughter echoed throughout the room. The staff tried to ask the group to lower their voices down, but the group couldn't. It would've been better if they have a separate private area. I still highly recommend Jamoneria though and would definitely go back.

    Limited menu, but the stack house burger was juicy and delicious. The soup and grill cheese sandwich was right on point. The service .. the team was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean and comfortable just as you would expect from being inside of a hotel.
