    Menu | A fresh and vibrant distillation of the Pacific Northwest, the 100-seat Juniper is a Cascadian-themed restaurant in the heart of Vancouver’s vibrant Chinatown neighbourhood. Craftsman-like quality and time-honoured traditions come together in a seasonally-inspired menu that embodies Chef Sarah Stewart’s love of the great outdoors, her small-town, farming-community roots and a deep respect for Canada’s shared culinary heritage.

    Bar | Juniper’s central bar, helmed by internationally acclaimed bartender Shaun Layton, compliments the kitchen’s regional focus with a broad selection of local and international small-batch spirits, a revolving list of curated gin & tonics and a wine list highlighting West Coast vineyards from Northern California to B.C.
