The GOODS from The Irish Heather

Vancouver, BC | Join in the festivities this Easter Weekend with a sumptuous feast at the Irish Heather on Sunday April 20th and Monday April 21st. In true Long Table style, guests will gather round a communal table for an evening of good food, fine drink and much merriment, all at an unbeatable price.

The Long Table Series was originally designed as an alternative dining option when the recession was hitting hard and hindering folks from enjoying a night out. It has endured as a popular weekly event because it remains a unique and affordable experience that brings together all those who share a common love of food and good company.

This festive gathering marks the launch of the new Long Table Series menu for the season, and guests this weekend will enjoy what will become the Sunday special; Roast Beef with Yorkshire Pudding, Roasting Jus and Roast Potatoes, all washed down with a crisp pint of Grimbergen. Bring family and friends, or come to meet some friendly faces over a hearty home-cooked meal. At only $17 including the artisan beer, it’s hard to find an experience around town better suited for this holiday weekend. Details after the jump…

Easter Weekend Dinner will be served on Sunday April 20th and Monday April 21st at 7:00pm and is priced at $17 (plus taxes and gratuity). For reservations please email [email protected]. Vegetarian options are available on request.

The Long Table Series takes place every Sunday and Monday at The Irish Heather, 212 Carrall Street, Vancouver, BC. The menu this season features Roast Beef with Yorkshire Pudding, Roasting Jus and Roast Potatoes plus a pint of Grimbergen on Sundays, and Pasta Bolognese – rich homemade beef sauce served over penne and topped with parmesan cheese – with a pint of Steam Whistle Pilsner on Mondays. The 40-foot table is a “communal” table — please sit wherever there is room. You may not know the folks beside you, but you will within 10 minutes.

In a world filled with “Plastic Paddy” establishments, the Heather stands out as a beacon of authenticity. A true Irish House that is owned and operated by Irish people.
