Bar & Grill To Replace Fiddlehead Joes

The Fiddlehead Joe’s space on the False Creek seawall has been picked up the Daniel Hospitality Group (Mill Marine Bistro, Delilah’s, etc) and will soon open as an easygoing comfort food joint called the Burrard Bridge Marine Bar & Grill, just in time for summer. The seating will be the same/similar to that of FJ’s, with 60 seats inside and another 60 on the sun-soaked patio. More from an email courtesy of the owner, Daniel Frankel:

We’ll be focusing on seafood, market fresh — we’ll also have burgers and our own homemade beer battered fish & chips (cod and halibut). Keeping it simple and casual, fun and accessible.

Word on the street was that Gord Martin on the Bins had been taking a close look at the spot, which really would have been something…

  1. I was never impressed with Fiddlehead’s food. Aside from the fiddlehead concept that they had, it was a bit bland, and experiences were always underwhelming.

    Mill Marine has one of the best waterfront patios in the city. Foodwise was not bad either.

    “..homemade beer battered fish & chips (cod and halibut). Keeping it simple and casual, fun and accessible.”

    Sounds like Go Fish on the other side of False Creek!

  2. not surpized …. the food was kinda boring and the staff were never focused on selling and being friendly to the paying customers…. i would also see good old joe himself enjoying the patio too much with custmers waiting … too bad… i wander what joe is doing now?
