    About Bistro Wagon Rouge

    IMG_4194

    Bistro Wagon Rouge (sister restaurant to The Red Wagon) is a ‘plaid’ collar French bistro located in the heart of Vancouver’s old port district. With playlists compiled by their friends at Red Cat and Zulu, an ever-changing “classics” menu and plenty of features to select from, the vibe at Bistro Wagon Rouge is always fresh. Their menu evolves daily but you can expect to find greatest hits like cassoulet, pâté, duck confit, pork belly, French onion soup and steak frites. They always have fish, veggies and plenty of meat on the menu. Gather around a table with friends for dinner, or pull up a stool for a glass of wine and a small bite at the bar. Bistro Wagon Rouge does not accept reservations; it’s first come, first served. If there happens to be a line, don’t fret — as they are located in one of the emerging craft brewery and distillery communities of East Vancouver, you can grab a beer or a cocktail at one of the neighbouring tasting rooms while you wait. Dinner is served Tuesday through Saturday from 5PM – 10PM.

    Vancouver’s Best Japanese Curries, Our Favourites Mapped

    Japanese curry doesn’t chase the spotlight the way ramen or gyoza do, but it has always been one of Japan’s most reliable comfort meals: hot, filling, and easy on the wallet. With Vancouver’s cooler weather still lingering, it’s exactly the kind of satisfying bowl that hits the spot.
