Gentrifier Bait: A Cambie Icon Destined For Diamond Studding?

IMG_2224

340 Cambie is up for sale, so I wonder if that means the 112 seat pub and the 48 rooms are going to be “brilliantly re-imagined” by well financed bespectacled boutiquers in flannel fronting PBR’s or consumed in a suspicious insurance fire. Bummer. Just a few weeks ago they had a large, hand-written sign in the window declaring it home to the “Best Food In Gastown”.

Perhaps not.
