Restaurants in Lynden

Corduroy uses organic, local ingredients and an independent eye for craftsmanship to stitch together tasty food trousers for the tongue-legs of Vancouver foodies. Slip your taste buds into one of Corduroy’s starters, such as prawn cakes ($12), a Dungeness crab salad ($14), or the restaurant’s popular poutine ($11), with two-year aged cheddar, Guinness jus, and truffle oil atop fries. Corduroy’s main dishes are few in number, but they rebound in quality like a strike team of hardened criminals who find redemption in their mission. The pizzas ($14) boast a whole-wheat rosemary and honey crust, with topping combinations including roast chicken and barbecue sauce, chorizo and goat cheese, and roast zucchini and smoked gouda. Savour an organic beef stew braised in red wine with vegetables ($17), spool spaghetti and meatballs ($16) around utensils, or embrace the butternut-squash risotto ($17) with open mouths. Corduroy also livens up melancholic livers with drinks of the beer, wine, cocktail, and martini persuasions.

New York style deli in the heart of the West End. We offer a variety of local and imported products, fresh made to order sandwiches, cheeses, meats and groceries.

The hospitable staff at Raw Canvas challenges the concept of the starving artist with a menu of tapas and desserts that recharge brainpower for creative endeavours. Like a bust of Andy Warhol carved out of butter, Raw Canvas merges the worlds of art and cuisine with a painting pit where colourful brushstrokes flow freely and a dining area for munching on fine sausages and alpine cheeses. The restaurant-studio prides itself on its eco-friendly approach to both visual expression and bodily nourishment, stocking up on paints made on Granville Island and culinary ingredients culled from local family farms. Guests sip craft beers and complex wines as they marvel at Raw Canvas's gallery of original paintings by local artists, or admire the patron-conceived masterpieces that adorn the walls of the painting pit.
