Reuben sandwich & Caesar salad
Paul M.

This was my first time dining at Dulin's, so I have only had one meal. The Reuben sandwich was one of the better Reubens I've ever had. The bread was toasted and buttery, and the corned beef was steaming hot and delicious. The Caesar salad was also very good. I did not leave hungry; the portion size was large. It was a very filling meal. The service was top-notch. It was a Saturday at 11 AM. It was not packed but decently crowded, and all of the servers seemed to be on their game. The ambiance reminds me of an old-school deli. It was very clean, and there was ample seating. My friend lives in Vancouver, so I will definitely be back to try more of the food offerings when I'm in the area visiting.

We've been wanting to try this place for awhile now, but it always looks so busy on the weekends, so we waited until we had a day off during the week. We arrived around 11:30 on a Wednesday. It was still pretty busy, and only two booths were open. We were first on the wait list. We only waited about 5 minutes for the host to clear the tables and set them. Staff was friendly and welcoming. You can tell it's a popular place by how busy it was on a weekday. This restaurant occupies an older building in downtown Vancouver. There is street parking available. It's a small establishment, but they do a great job of utilizing every inch. They even have a nice waiting area by the door with two long wooden benches. There are both table and chair seating, as well as a few booths. Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. We ordered the croissant club sandwich with fries and the triple play with half a reuben sandwich, Celtic Caesar salad and a cup of Irish stew. My hubby also asked for a side of bacon. The food came out rather quickly considering how busy they were. Everything we ordered we devoured. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. I added avocado to my club sandwich and it was so yummy! Prices are more than reasonable compared to other establishments. You get a generous portion as well. Overall we were happy with the service, food and prices. We'll definitely return to try their breakfast options. Everything looked so appealing as it came out of the kitchen. Would highly recommend!

Fresh fruit to start the day
Terrance S.

Always good service and good food. The staff is excellent. Very attentive and inviting. I always feel welcome here. From the whole grain pancakes, to the chicken sausage, to oatmeal, to fresh fruit, Dulin's is a staple in downtown Vancouver. It's like visiting a cozy neighborhood eatery where all the patrons are regulars. You don't want to miss it.,

El Paso

Brunch dreams do come true! We rolled up for brunch and were met with a 45-minute wait (it was Labor Day to be Fair)--but with all the glowing reviews, we figured it had to be worth it. Spoiler alert: IT TOTALLY WAS. To kill time, we wandered over to the vintage mall across the street (10/10 recommend for distraction shopping and questionable fashion decisions). By the time we were done laughing at '80s vinyls and questionable biker jackets, our table was ready. Perfect timing! Now let's talk food. Holy portions, Batman. We ordered the El Paso and the Dublin, plus a side stack of pancakes--because brunch isn't brunch without a pancake cameo, right? Safe to say, it was more than enough for two people (but we have no regrets, only delicious memories). Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and those pancakes were straight-up cloud magic. I could honestly come back just for a short stack and call it a day. The mimosas were bubbly joy in a glass, the service was decent, and overall, it was a solid brunch win. I'd 100% come back--and next time, I'm making a reservation like a pro

What a cute little find! I have been looking for a great place for huevos rancheros and found them here. Great staff. Great service!

The French omelet with bacon, mushrooms, and Brie cheese. My keto version without potatoes and added avocado and tomatoes. :-)

Great atmosphere and food... The French omelet with the mushrooms, bacon, and brie cheese was AMAZING!

Dulin's potato dish, a split portion. An ample amount to share.
Pamela L.

Three different staff members warmly greeted us and offered help while our table was being prepared--a great first impression. The space is bright and inviting, with natural light, plants, and large photos of village countrysides that perfectly reflect the café's name and theme. The menu blends Irish and American classics. We shared the Dulin's potato dish--corned beef, sautéed onions and bell peppers, cheese, horseradish, egg, and avocado. The French toast was another standout. We are looking forward to coming back to try the lunch menu!

Huevo rancheros
Autumn B.

Dulin's Café has become one of my absolute favorite breakfast spots , every visit is somehow better than the last. I order the Huevos Rancheros every single time, and it never disappoints. The flavors are fresh, perfectly balanced, and honestly? It might be the best version I've ever had anywhere. Their iced chai latte is another must-have, smooth, perfectly spiced, and not overly sweet. And if you're going for a brunch vibe, their mimosa flight is so fun and delicious. My boyfriend tries something new every time, and he swears their omelettes are top-tier across the board. Beyond the food, the service is amazing. The waitresses and waiters are always friendly, attentive, and genuinely seem to care about giving you a great experience. It's the kind of café where you feel welcomed the moment you sit down. If you're looking for a consistently excellent breakfast or brunch spot with great food, great drinks, and great people, Dulin's Café is it. Highly recommend!

$5.95 fruit cup after getting it out of the cup that had everything wedged into it.
John W.

Usually five out of five stars when I've dined at Dulin's the previous three times. I ordered the fruit cup previously before so I'm aware of its size and presentation. I don't know if they tried to dress it up to justified the $5.95 price which is more than fair in my opinion, but the way the fruit was shoved into the bowl was ridiculous. Half the mangis fell out when I tilted the small bowl to look at it. Then when I went to pull on of the 1/16" of an inch apple slices out, two more fell on the table. I'm not a germ-a-phob, but I should be able to pull my food out of the bowl without it falling onto a (hopefully clean) table. The worst part and I should have gave them one star for this, I immediately went to the counter and pair the manager? that delivered and when he asked if something was wrong, he rang me up. Fortunately I grabbed the bowl and was able to get a to go box for my "cup" of fruit. Here's a thought, give me a discount.‍ Big miss on customer service/satisfaction. Guess I'll wait a while before visiting again.

This is the second time we've enjoyed a yummy breakfast while in Vancouver! The service is great, everyone is warm and smiling. I enjoyed the veggie Benedict with avocado, spinach and tomato with a side of crispy potatoes. I especially love the local Silagy brand hot sauces; I stopped by the local market to pick up a few bottles ! :-) Tip- this is a busy spot, if you have to wait be sure to visit the antique shop across the street, lots of interesting finds.

Turkey Croissant Sandwich with Clam Chowder
Kelsie D.

Yummy food and very reasonable prices! Was seated quickly and staff was friendly. I ordered the Reuben sandwich and it was so good! Not greasy, just the right amount of sauce and the meat was cut nice and thin. Very yummy! Would definitely come back again and try other items.

Huevos Rancheros...art on a plate.
H.B. G.

Charming....charming is the word I would use to describe Dulin's Village Cafe in downtown Vancouver, like a warm hug on a rainy day. The first clue, that I had chosen wisely, was seeing people gather at the door, waiting for the restaurant to open. I ordered the short stack (2 pancakes) and a side of bacon which suited my sweet/salty cravings. The whole-grain pancakes were hot off the griddle, served with real butter, and syrup. They were tasty, but I am more of a buttermilk pancake gal. (if you want "real maple" syrup it costs extra....which, considering the jump in pricing at most restaurants, is a little annoying. But this is a minor quibble.) The two strips of thick bacon were perfectly grilled and had a nice, light, smokey flavor. Hub had the Huevos Rancheros...a layer of seasoned black beans, grilled tortilla, eggs (cooked any way you like), and topped with cheese and generous slices of avocado. It came with fresh salsa, a dollop of sour cream, and breakfast potatoes (which were delicious....and tasted freshly made, not frozen) We both had a rich cup of coffee served in a chunky mug. The service was friendly, attentive, and professional. The total for breakfast, for two, was about $33. It is getting harder to find non-chain restaurants that serve a traditional breakfast. So glad Dulin's is here. It is on my list whenever I am in downtown Vancouver.

There was only one table available in a small room with 3 other four-top tables. It was super loud with that many people in such a small space. They definitely try to make use of every inch they have. We're not really 'crowd' people, nor do we enjoy high volume environments where we can't have a conversation without raising our voices. That part of the experience left little to be desired. The staff was super friendly, helpful and attentive. Our water glasses were refilled promptly, and considering how busy they were, our food came out timely. We ordered the club sandwich with fries and a bacon Swiss burger with chili. The food was good, but nothing outstanding. They offer generous portions at affordable prices. Overall we enjoyed our meal, but given the loud and crowded environment, we're not sure it's a place we'll frequent in the future.

We're relatively new to Vancouver and are still exploring the area, looking for all the great food…read morethis city has to offer. Amaro's was one of the first recommendations we received from a gentleman sitting next to me, and tonight we finally had the opportunity to give it a try. I've walked past Amaro's many times and peeked through the windows. It always looked rather upscale, and as a chef myself, I'll admit I'm not always drawn to food that feels a little too bougie. Sometimes I just want to sit down, relax, and enjoy a great meal without overthinking it. From the moment we walked through the door, we were greeted with smiles. We were seated at a beautiful table, and immediately felt comfortable. Then came our server, Alyssa, who was an absolute delight! She was attentive without being pushy, had a wonderfully calm and welcoming personality, and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the evening. As someone who works in hospitality, I appreciate that balance more than I can say. We started with the salt-and-pepper calamari. This is one of those dishes that can be fantastic at one restaurant and greasy or disappointing at another. Amaro's got it right! Crunchy, delicious, and a wonderful start to dinner. We also learned that the restaurant features a signature risotto each evening. We ordered the chicken Parmesan with risotto and the steak sandwich on ciabatta. Both were delicious! I ordered the pepper sauce on the side, thinking I might prefer it that way. Next time, I'll definitely have it on the sandwich. It was so good that I even used it as a dipping sauce for the house chips. Trust me, that sauce deserves to be enjoyed! The general manager, Cora, stopped by several times to check on us. We didn't even realize she was the general manager at first. She was simply another friendly face making sure we were enjoying ourselves. That's what genuine hospitality looks like! I also happened to notice the fried chicken at the neighboring table. Let me tell you, that portion looked impressive! It's definitely going on our list for the next visit. By the time dinner was over, we were absolutely stuffed and couldn't finish everything on our plates. Somehow, though, we managed to find room for dessert! We ordered the ricotta donuts with caramel dipping sauce. Dessert isn't normally something I would order, but I'm so glad we did. They were absolutely worth having and the perfect finishing touch to an already wonderful dinner. Before leaving, Cora stopped by one last time, and we enjoyed a lovely closing conversation. A special thank-you to Cora, Alyssa, and the entire team for making our evening so enjoyable. Alyssa, if you're lucky enough to sit in her section, you're in for a treat! And finally, my compliments to the chef and kitchen team. As a chef myself, I know a successful restaurant experience takes more than good food. It takes an entire team working together to make guests feel welcome and eager to return. We came in to try a restaurant someone recommended, and we left feeling like we had discovered a new favorite. Great food, genuine hospitality, and a perfect way to end a three-day weekend. Welcome to our growing list of Vancouver favorites, Amaro's! We'll definitely be back!

Excellent experience, all the way around. We showed up just after 5 PM on a Saturday and they had…read morequite a few reservations so there was going to be 20 minute wait for a table in the dining room. Not bad, but they offered an alternative which was to take a table in their atrium seating which is an indoor area they use on the weekends when their patio is closed for the season. Sure, why not? It was great. Spread out, a lot of windows so we could see the beautiful premises, and great service from Karen. I was delighted to learn that they now have a new section on their menu that just came out two days ago that are smaller portioned meals. There are about a half dozen to choose from and I had the chicken marsala which comes with the same thing as the full plate, mashed potatoes, and a seasonal vegetable, tonight, French green beans. The portion was ideal and incredibly tasty just a symphony of flavor in the chicken and the marsala sauce. My dinner partner had the citrus salmon and enjoyed it very much as well. I like the East Vancouver and the Hazel Dell locations as well, but I think downtown might be my favorite. Main street is alive and happening and now with beautiful string lights running across the road as far as the I can see in either direction, it's just magical.
