Restaurants Near Garry Point Park — Steveston Village

The trail at Garry Point Park ends where Steveston Village begins — a five-minute stroll past the Cannery and along the boardwalk to Moncton Street. You're looking for a table after wind off the Fraser; Vogue Cafe sits at 12251 No 1 Rd #130, open daily 10:30am–8:30pm, fully licensed with a side patio that stays dry when the coast blows wet.

What the village actually feels like at dinner time

Moncton Street quiets down after the day-trippers leave. Locals take the corner tables at the bistro, a server pulls a Kronenbourg 1664 from the tap, and the dining room smells of reduced red wine and caramelized onion. The space is a heritage-style storefront: deep-red walls, wood tables, a small bar, and a covered side patio lined with greenery walls and red-checkered tablecloths. A dog bowl sits by the door. Inside, the printed menu is posted in the window so you can read it before you commit.
