Our original bistro opened in December 2001 in Point Grey in Vancouver's West Side. Through the heartwarming support of our local guests, we quickly experienced what neighbourhood and community mean to our bistro concept and our personal well being. Since our modest beginnings, we continue to select vital urban neighbourhoods in which to situate our bistros. To this day, we feel it's important to participate in the communities where we live and work.more...See more text
Burgoo specializes in comfort food from around the world. With a rotating menu that’s guided by seasonal traditions and availability, the food has been a hit with locals from the start. With multiple locations, including one at the bottom of Lonsdale in North Vancouver, it's an affordable option for French-inspired hot potting.
Grab a blanket and cozy up to some fondue on this cozy Mount Pleasant patio. The comfort food and heated outdoor seating area at Burgoo offer similar solace to that of a crackling fire in the middle of a snowstorm. Two varieties of macaroni and cheese and a warm glass of mead wine make impeccable companions on a rainy day in Vancouver.
Burgoo may be known equally for its long, slow braises and its comforting veggie options, but those meatless dishes are the focus on this list. Ooey-gooey grilled cheese served with bright and acidic tomato soup; life-affirming borscht; hearty salads of kale and quinoa and fruits and nuts; various cheese fondues and a classic French ratatouille — this is vegetarian comfort food to warm the bones and settle into. Their rustic wood interior and a basket of warm cheddar biscuits rounds out the alpine, après-ski vibe.
