a great restaurant in the Powell River area. The interior is so modern, warm and cozy, it's something you would expect to find at a coastal town like here. Loved their peach Bellini drink here, and their fish and chips are definitely the way to go! Service was friendly and the restaurant is kept well clean overall. Prices are what you'd expect them to be, in my opinion. No complaints here, if I'm ever in Powell River again I'll definitely be back. read more

Stopped in for Happy Hour and we ended up getting Appy's and a main plus a few drinks. House white right now is from Fitzpatrick in the Okanagan which was good. For Appy's we got the Poutine and BBQ Chicken bites that had a bit of a Korean Gojijan flavour which we enjoyed. They gave us the creamy parm dip on the side that was sooooo good and I finished it with the fries that came with the burger, lol. We also got a Smash burger which was excellent and the Cod burger was fantastic, nice size piece of fish! Also tried the root beer in a bottle that was sooooo good. Our server was fantastic and so nice. read more

Beautiful atmosphere especially if you have a table on the balcony overlooking the beautiful water. The waiter and hostess were very friendly and we were able to try a few samples of beer before making our selection. We all enjoyed our food. Out of the four dishes I though the lettuce cups and the laksa bowl were the best! The laksa bowl had so much flavor I would definitely order it again. We also had no wait at all as we made a reservation ahead of time, which I would recommend it. It was a pretty busy place. read more

Neat place with some great views if you sit outdoors. All of the four dishes that we ordered were soli. My fish and chips were battered perfect in a light batter that didn't take away from the fish flavor. Good service and an attentive waiter made the meal more enjoyable. read more

Everything about this place is excellent minus the service today. Maybe it was an off day but the server forgot our drink order 3 times. Not overly busy but seemed a bit off. Cute place, excellent food options, and gorgeous views. We ordered the pretzel (fresh artisan pretzel, creamy garlic parmesan, yellow mustard) and it was warm and buttery. The garlic parm dip was an excellent pairing option. I also got the Beurre Blanc Mac & Cheese (Smoked cheddar, white wine butter sauce, crispy bacon) - no bacon. Very creamy and cheesy but not smokey. Also, they charged for hot sauce. For dessert, the Vanilla Cheesecake (Sea salt, espresso crème anglaise, and cocoa nib brittle). Out of this world! Hands down one of the best treats I've ever had! Loved the food! The service was a bit off but I would totally come back again!! read more

Cool place with a great view and great food and friendly staff Appetizers were great - had Brussels Sprouts and their Ahi stack both were great - Laksa bowl needed salt then was really good and the waffle sandwich was good but not the dream it sounds like it'd be - maple syrup maybe would've blown it out of the park. Definitely will come back again next time I'm near read more

Congratulation to Powell River for the upscale eatery. The ribs were amazing. We were a table of five. The tuna stack was also amazing. Regrettable we were not even offered a desert menu so we left without tasting any treats. Couple of friends did not enjoy meals. Fish and chips wish dry fish, could not eat. Mashed potatoes and fresh vegetable were much better than fries, read more

Ocean view and good service food is very good Has a good happy hour. vibrant crowd. up the butt chicken is the best.

One of the few restaurants on this strip that was actually opened for lunch. Many of the other restaurants don't open until 3-4pm, this was also on a Sat. We were able to sit outside overlooking the sea view. The menu selection was varied and plenty to choose from. I had the salad with chicken which was excellent and my husband had the salmon burger. Both were very tasty. read more

So good I came here twice during my trip! Loved the chop salad and also the beet burger! They have a diverse menu with something for everyone and there were still more things I want to get next time. Drinks were good as well and there was quite a variety including a few non- alcoholic versions. Oh and the bread pudding is worth it! read more

I came here with a colleague and even though it was busy our server greeted us immediately and got our orders started. The food was very good and fairly priced. This is a nice spot near the water with an amazing view. read more

Absolutely a wonderful place to unwind after a long day of traveling. The Shanghai Bowl was perfect for the cool weather and the bear went down smooth. Service was great. Everyone checks on in you, not just your server. Pleasant, calm atmosphere and beautiful view of the river. read more

Visited on a sunny warm Friday evening just before happy hour ended. Sat on the patio with a view of the strait. Sipped on a turmeric spritzer and a happy hour beer ($5, reg $6) and saw many whale blows as we waited for our meals. Food arrived quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed my delicious Buddha bowl while hubby devoured his mac & cheese (subbed bacon for capers at no charge). Wait staff were friendly and attentive. Overall a wonderful dining experience. Well done Coastal Cookery! P.S.

The patio has a great view. I had the wild mushroom rigatoni. It was spectacular. Ordered a takeout of the same dish for my wife and she was of the same view. While I can't say whether any of the other things on the menu are even close to the rigatoni, I would come back for this dish alone in a heartbeat. read more

A sophisticated eatery with a waterfront view and a great ambiance I was driving, and hence not drinking alcohol, but their bar selections looked great (single malt scotches, etc.). I had the short-rib sliders and a root beer (good driving food), but felt like I was the exception - most folks were settled in for a leisurely and fancy brunch. I'll definitely stop when I'm in town again. It's fancy without being too formal. A great place for drinks, brunch or dinner. read more

Great view, incredible cocktails, good food! Watched whales breaching from the deck it was surreal.

Yummy and beautiful setting. We got a few dishes to share for a late lunch. Good mocktails too.

We came yesterday evening for a goodbye dinner for one of our friends. We were sat and three different waitresses walked past us with no acknowledgement, other then a glance as they walked by to bring drinks to the two tables that arrived after us. After 25 minutes, we walked out. Nobody bothered to even acknowledge us as we left. They all just stared at us. Will not be returning. Please teach your staff to actually do their jobs. Went down the street to Monks and had a lovely meal and service. read more

This restaurant is the definition of stuck up. The staff treat you as an inconvenience and they are so misguided by their own ego that they refuse to change or update the menu in any meaningful way. With prices so high and a staff so uncaring is it any wonder that people are flocking to the much smaller but much friendlier and more original Monks on marine. So done with "coastal" read more

This is what you get from Coastal Cookery in Powell River people. ABSOLUTELY disgusting and to top it off she made it seem like she was doing me a FAVOR by taking it off the bill. Give me a break. The whole bill should have been covered and some apologies maybe would have been a good start. That burger was still walking around. read more

Coastal cookery is well located with a fine view over the town marina. It's a stylish place and the staff are all very friendly, attentive and helpful. We sat on the balcony (more in a minute) and ordered what amounted to fish and chips. The fish, ling cod, was beautifully prepared, fresh and fried in a light crispy batter. The fries were excellent and the assorted bits which came with it were all high quality. The food, the people and the restaurants in British Columbia all seem to be absolutely first rate. Coastal Cookery was no exception. Our only complaint was that this is a noisy restaurant. We had to be moved to the balcony because the noise inside was almost unbearable. There are lots of reflective surfaces in the restaurant and nothing to dampen sound. Man, it's loud! But the food was wonderful and we would certainly go back, perhaps with ear plugs. read more

After a morning of hiking I came in for some lunch and a beer or three. Mala my server was amazing and friendly. I ordered the Humbolt calamari and the Da Burger. Both were perfection. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. read more

We come to Powell River quite often to visit one of our sisters but have never tried this restaurant. We in fact ordered a meal for our sister to be picked up on Christmas Eve last year but she missed the closing time of Coastal Cookery so never received it. Last night the restaurant did not hesitate to honour a gift card that had already been fulfilled (but not picked up), which speaks to the way the owners and staff run this business. And then we had an outstanding meal in a lovely surrounding - definitely the best meal we have had in Powell River and we have tried dozens over the last decade or so visiting our sister. And lots of interesting options - squid, duck, amazing soup with a toasted cheese sandwich. Highly recommend this place - we will certainly be back very soon. Worth the trip to Powell River alone! read more

Great food. I had the sticky chicken rice bowl and it was awesome. All of the staff made us feel welcome and we're amazing hosts. Keep up the good work and I will definitely be back read more

Stopped in for lunch and had the sticky rice chicken bowl... very good! A little spice to take things up a notch with tender chicken and a mix of veggies that went perfectly. The view is very nice!! Can't go wrong there. It was busy, noise was a bit more than moderate - call it very lively. Would love to have dinner here one night. Next time I am in town I will be back for sure. Enjoy! read more

Amazing food An service . I can't remember the name of the burger it was the beef an bacon one. Honestly one of the best made burgers I've had in a long time. Also amazing Cesar's the double Cesar comes with a piece of jerky witch was a nice touch. read more

One of the best spots in Powell River, great food and vibe. our server Leena was fantastic and friendly!

Mashed potatoes which came with the beered chicken tasted stale. Ling cod with black Thai rice was very dry. Same with the chicken bites.

Impressed by their menu and service options. Very attentive folks and we were about 20 people and our server did very well. Great food quality had a bowl, 83 year old Aunty had the chicken and waffle combo and left nothing behind. We are Vancouver residents and didn't expect to have such options of healthy dining. Would definitely recommend and I want to go back to try more options. Thank you. read more

This is our go-to place for breakfast when our best friends drop in from out of town. Diverse menu, well prepared and presented meals. Pleasant service and relaxed, slightly eclectic atmosphere make this a regular on our list. read more

Love the food at Coastal Cookery. Great, very friendly staff. I now especially love that they offer takeout. Same great food, but in the quiet of my home. I would rate 5 stars if it wasn't for how noisey this place is. Definitely not a place for a nice quiet dinner if you are not on the balcony. I do highly recommend this restaurant and in particular the mussels, you must try the mussels. read more

Love this place! It's open late. It has a cool hipster vibe. They serve local and craft brews. Ocean views. I ordered a townside (local) blonde ale and a beef short ribs. Both were great! Highly recommend. Minus one star cause the location wasn't accurate. read more

Happened to come across this place as nothing was open on a Monday night. Am I glad I did!! Drinks were great! Asian Sweet n Sticky Wings were a great flavor and serving. Entree of beer can chicken was awesome ( slight copy of cactus club dish). None the less, worth trying. Bourbon Pecan Galette for dessert!!! Incredible!! Don't think I will be eating anywhere else when visiting read more

Nice place great atmosphere used to be my abosijte favourite but consistent food here I used to get is slowly fading, portions are often way off but is overall pretty good, last year Inwoukd have given 4.5 instead of 3. Also need more wing options your a bar/pub/lounge people like wings lol. With more than two options read more

This place is nice inside the food is not bad the menu could be bigger for entree's. The waitresses and host are wonderful, only thing if you find something wrong with your meal - DONT send it back as you will have the manager come out and embarrass you and tell you about starving children in the world because you sent it back. They don't take criticism very well as if you criticize any of their food good or bad you may get banned from the restaurant, as I was for saying my Salmon burger tasted a little off. read more

Good food, I had the waffle chicken burger which is out of my element but was so delicious. Probably the best chicken burger I have ever had. read more

Small but excellently curated and executed menu. This food will not disappoint! The service we received was second to non; the staff was especially kind and understanding with our teenage daughter who has ASD and suffers a great deal with mealtimes. We wholeheartedly recommend coastal cookery! read more

I was pretty excited to see a new place hit Powell Dam, I mean River. My husband is from this adorable town, so I have visited enough to know that pickings are slim if you are wanting a nice restaurant experience WITH good food. We were a party of four and seated immediately. All the workers were super friendly. We were all very happy with our meal, all very tasty. I got the quinoa sliders, probably should be named, mini-quinoa sliders. Luckily I am a tiny human that does not require much food to function so it was fine, but for what you are paying + lack of sides (as in... there are none), it was a bit of bummer to pay THAT much. The menu is diverse so you will have many reasons to come back. I hope this place makes it. It looks great downtown and offers something Powell River was missing. So good luck Coastal Cookery. I will look for you when we return to PR! read more

The food was delicious and the service was great!! Taylor was really nice and made sure we ordered all the good food!! Great seating in the back patio! Had the poutine, Brussels sprouts, sliders, Mac and cheese, green salad. All of them were top drawer!! read more
