    Cassoulet ($20.00)
    Jonny M.

    Finally made it to try Tour de Feast. Not busy on a Friday for brunch. There's three parking spots in the back. Weird that you can make reservations online for dinner but not for brunch/lunch. - Americano ($4.50) and cappuccino ($5.50) - both drinks tasted watered down - Cassoulet ($20.00) - cheesy, navy beans didn't have much flavour. Crispy bacon, good soft poach on the eggs, tiny portion of sausage - Smoked salmon breakfast ($21.00) - potatoes were bland. Smoked salmon with avocado mousse and capers always a classic combo - Mushroom & swiss omelette ($16.00) with smoked bacon ($5.50) - Full French ($18.00)

    Great ambience and fantastic food at Tour De Feast. After researching a plethora of places to eat during my latest trip to Vancouver, and another handful of French cuisine contenders, I ended up deciding that Tour De Feast was the winner. We arrived near the beginning of dinner service, after 2-lengthy hikes. Wanting something substantial, we ended up each ordering our own entrees and splitting a 3rd entree. My partner ended up getting the Steak, I ended up getting the Duck Breast (although the Duck Confit was so close to winning out) and we split the Pork Belly. The front of house manager was fantastic in ensuring that we were taken care of, well hydrated with our water, and brought out everything in perfect order. He was able to engage in light conversation while also checking to make sure other tables were well attended to. Each of our three dishes came out perfectly made, was very well balanced, and left us wanting to return here on our next Vancouver trip. We informed him that we were from the Bay Area and that we purposely took on a second hike just so that we can plan around dining here (which was all true).

    Pulled Chicken Sandwich

    Heard from friends and seen online about here. Small cozy place. Parking in the back and on the streets. Fresh made and kids enjoyed their sandwiches too. Service was pleasant, polite and attentive to refill of coffee or water. Had the following - * Full French * Croque Madame with salad * Pulled Chicken sandwich I would come back and try for dinner if I am in North Vancouver.

    Full French ($18)

    We came for brunch and got in around 1:50pm and it was close to them closing for lunch (they close at 2:30pm with last call at 2pm). They checked with the kitchen and was ok to take us, thankfully. Granted, they had a lot of tables still working on their food. I liked the food. The braised short rib in the Black Bar and the short rib in the sandwich tasted the same. I like the robust seasoning but hubby found it on the smokey side. The kids loved their Full French dish. I wouldn't go out of my way just to come here as they serve similar fare as some other restaurants, but if I'm in the neighborhood again, I'll come back. Parking at the back was a bit confusing since they only have about 2 spots. But they said since it's the weekend, the unit next door was closed so we could use their parking.

    It has been a long time since I was wowed by a dish. This place did not disappoint and totally deserved the stars given. I have heard and read about this place and covid hit before I could try it. It was take out mostly then. We decided to try it over the weekend and were lucky to get a table as the place was tiny. There was a line waiting outside when we left. The menu is not extensive which is a good thing. It makes ordering easier. We decided on the cassoulet and my friend was also blown away by the dish. Served in a cast iron pan, it was filled with eggs, beans, meat, potatoes and toast. Forget about this dish if you were on a diet as it was full of flavor and good fats. The eggs were perfectly poached with soft yolks which ran slightly. The lardon bacon was fattier than regular bacon. The weisswurst sausage was flavorful and soft. Potatoes were nicely crisped around the edges with steamy soft flesh. Then the star of the dish -- pork rillette. So rich and so good when eaten with the toast. I always love duck rillette and this pork version was equally yummy. The navy beans just completed completed the dish, making it an hearty meal. I would need to come back to try the duck confit and short rib sandwich. Lovely service staff and the place is non fancy. A nice casual small place for good French food. Limited parking at rear, find side street parking instead.

    Lemon creme brûlée and chocolate pate.

    We found Tour de Feast as a happy accident during a weekend trip to North Vancouver. We made reservations based on recommendations online, and we are very glad we did. I would travel again just to get a chance to eat here again. I was so impressed with the hospitality of the staff and owners, the high food quality, cleanliness of the restaurant, unpretentious ambiance despite it being an award-winning restaurant, and the kindness and patience of the owners and their family. I highly recommend the duck breast and lemon creme brûlée, if still on the menu at the time of reading this review. They cook using seasonal ingredients, so if you like to be prepared, call ahead or take the chance. I've never eaten something so perfectly cooked, well portioned, and seasoned. I left feeling satisfied and can hands down state that it was the best meal I'd had in a long time. It's clear that someone is cooking with soul in their kitchen. They have great gluten free recommendations. I always recommend that if you have dietary restrictions, please do yourself a favor and plan ahead by giving them a call to ask! All in all, do not sleep on Tour de Feast!

    What a wonderful find, intimate and cozy, minimal decor and in the least likely of neighbourhoods. First off I'd have to say they're COVID friendly! Meaning they are following the rules, less tables, spread out and wearing face masks and disinfecting everything after each table is done and distancing themselves as much as possible during service. This made me feel a lot better about going out to dine again. My overall impression is the food is carefully prepared and not unlike any better dining experience you'd find in Paris. Bonus here is they cater to North American appetites! Portions are generous. The fois gras mousse appie is a must try for first timers! Light in texture but full in taste without being overly rich feeling on the tongue as you would with a solid piece. The onion jam is super tasty and goes well with the airy brioche it's served with. The other appie you must try is the Alsacienne onion tart. Served with a small side of greens, this is one to share. It has a wonderful light flaky buttery crust and equally tasty filling of melt in your mouth onions! The house charcuterie was also very good and another appie you could share! I can't say enough good things about the rest of our meal so you should just go and try it for yourself! Oh the lemon tart for dessert was excellent!

    st. germain and chambord

    julia's bday celebration continues - this time with my bestie s. it was also a semi-celebration for her new job! i can't rmb where i found this hidden gem but boy was it worth it! it is located just off the highway in north van, and the restaurant itself was a small, quaint place hidden around industrial shops. there is parking in the back and ample street parking around the place. as it is a smaller restaurant, resos are def recommended. we were greeted right away at the door - the owner asked if we had resos, which we did. she rmb that it was a bday dinner and asked who's bday it was. julia received more bday greetings, and yes it is never enough! there is a rotating drinks/wine list, which is not found on the site so julia had to decide what she wanted to have. i ultimately had the st. germain and s had the chambord. both were refreshing and light - perfect start to the dinner! some complimentary bread was provided and both of us loved that it was lightly toasted. it was crispy and warm - s' not a big fan of bread and thoroughly enjoyed it. we shared the mussels - the sauce was garlicky with a bit of a kick from chilli peppers. the sourdough bread that came with the dish was perfect to soak up the juices! the mussels were fresh and decent sized. i had the duck confit while s had the lamb shank. my duck confit was done amazingly - the skin was crispy and flavourful, the meat fell right off the bone and the jus on the bottom tied everything together. there were small slices of bacon that was a nice surprise as well. s shared some of her lamb with me even tho i'm not a big fan of lamb personally. the shank was not gamey at all - peeve of mine and basically why i don't like lamb - and the mash was smooth and creamy. we were stuffed at this point and didn't order any dessert. there was a table beside us with 2 ladies that did order dessert, and theirs looked delicious! when we were paying, the owner told us that they have brunch everyday. guess that means julia will be dropping by very soon

    Wild mushroom fricasse.
    Jessica M.

    Came across this place as it had a good amount of reviews for a place in Vancouver. I guess Yelp isn't widely used there? Anyway, we were on our way to do the Quarry Rock hike and wanted a place to eat on the way. We got here right as they opened, and was welcomed into their super warm and cozy restaurant. The place is pretty small, so I can see it getting crowded as it nears peak time. The servers were very nice, and asked us multiple times whether we had any allergies! (I later noticed that every place we went to in Vancouver asked this question, but they were the first!) I've only eaten French food a handful of times, so I wasn't familiar with the menu items. I ended up ordering the wild mushroom fricasse. The dish had tomatoes, potatoes, avocado, poached eggs, and crostini. I probably should've ordered something more familiar, but I wanted to be adventurous and try something new. The bread with the juices was good, but I wasn't a fan of the heavy tomato and mushroom flavor. The coffee they served was really good though. Even though I didn't like my dish, I wouldn't mind coming back and ordering something else!

    I hadn't been here for a couple of years. We came here for lunch and found the food to be the same - simply tasty and fresh! We both ordered the avocado and focaccia. The bread was crispy topped with 2 sunny side eggs. You have a choice of bacon or sausage. We felt safe as we were seated a good distance from other tables. They do a great job keeping the place clean. Next time we hope to visit for dinner. It's good to know they have prepared food for takeout. Parking is a bit of a challenge but it's worth it considering you're getting quality food. There are side streets nearby.

    Duck leg confit skillet
    Sangeetha M.

    I came here for brunch on a rainy day. There's parking right outside...convenient. The restaurant is smaller than I thought and has cozy vibes which I liked. The people working there (owner maybe?) was really warm and friendly. I was super excited to try the duck confit skillet and it was good! It was a lot of food for me though, I couldn't finish it. Then we were craving something sweet so we ordered something chocolatey, like a torte, which was really rich and just didn't hit the spot. Can't remember what exactly.

    Some of Metro Vancouver's best Christmas attractions are on the North Shore including at Grouse Mountain and Capilano Suspension Bridge. There are also a number of excellent Christmas artisan markets and Christmas shopping in the Lower Lonsdale area of North Vancouver. We decided to go out for brunch before going shopping and exploring Christmas attractions. We picked Tour De Feast since it is one of the highest-rated restaurants about their brunch. We would say Tour De Feast has the best cassoulet in town. It includes soft poached egg, white navy beans, weisswurst sausage, lardon bacon, swiss, and confit pork. It was well seasoned, and it was incredibly tasty. We really enjoyed it! Tour De Feast is a super tiny restaurant in the centremost part of North Vancouver's industrial area. It is located at 319 Mountain Hwy, North Vancouver, BC. Food: 5/5 Must Try! Service: ‍‍‍‍4/5 Kids: 3/5 A-OK for kids. Price: $30-$50 for two (Brunch) Presentation: 3/5 Parking: 1/5 - has only a few stalls in the back of the restaurant. Tips: *recommends to book a reservation as it is a small place with limited seating. *serves classic French cuisine. Would I Return: Yes ‍

    Rack of lamb

    Wonderful experience! We showed up a few minutes before they opened at 5:15 and they worked to get us seated quickly. We ordered the duck breast and rack of lamb and both were delicious! Great service, clean place, and yummy food. Definitely give this place a try.

My…read morefriend and I decided to take a drive and I remembered Blvd Bistro was on my list of places to try for a while now. Traffic wasn't too bad, so we arrived in good time. We parked on a side street not too far away and noticed how friendly people were as we walked to the restaurant. Everyone said hello and smiled as we passed through. You certainly don't get that same experience in many other areas of the Lower Mainland. Because it was spur of the moment, we didn't have a reservation. We put our name down with the host and waited about 10-15 minutes for a table. The restaurant was a little noisy but not overwhelmingly so. We both had coffee, which was really good. I should've asked what kind of coffee they serve because it's not very often the regular drip coffee is this good. I was having a hard time deciding between the Blvd Blackstone Benny with maple bacon and the Smokey Brisket Benny. I ended up choosing the latter with a side of avocado and my friend had the Huevos Rancheros - he added a side of fried potatoes when he saw how good they looked on my plate. I took one bite of the brisket and I was instantly so glad I chose it. The meat was so tender and flavourful and I didn't even need my knife to cut it. It was phenomenal. My eggs were overcooked but immediately replaced with new eggs when I mentioned it to the server. The replacements were soft with perfectly runny yolks. She also brought extra hollandaise sauce. My friend's meal looked amazing, in fact I now have to come back just so I can have this dish. I wasn't able to finish my meal so I boxed it up to finish later. I will definitely come back here to try more of the menu items, especially when the coffee is this good. Makes me wish I lived closer!

The food and drinks arrived to our table at a good amount of time although, it took a little bit for the server to come take our order or to re-fill our waters.

The brioche bun was soft yet crispy and the flavours were nice. My friends got eggs benny. They said it was good although the egg was not runny, rather a soft jammy egg yolk. If you like a runny yolk, be sure to let the waiter know. On the table they have a hot sauce, and that was delicious. It was sweet and tangy and had a good amount of spice. Overall, it was good and I would come back again

Aside from its great floor plan, it just has an inviting energy. Oh, and you have to see the outside ....they've got fire pits! :) What's more awesome than sitting around a fire pit in the fall?! We sat in a cozy little booth, ordered a couple of Social Lagers, Dry Ribs and the Traditional Pub Burger. All fantastic. I've had this same exact combination of drinks and a meal at a different Browns but this hit different. The Burger was expertly made (see pic.) The dry ribs were a stunning pairing with the crisp Lager. We also ordered a side of gravy. You have to try their Gravy! It's ridiculously good. I'd probably dunk my rain boots in that Gravy and have a bite and it would taste good. The Dry Ribs were hot, with Peppered Salt juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. With the fat trimmed off of almost all the bits, there were a couple of little pieces that were intentional rib fat which were heavenly. Yummm! We ended the meal with their newly added addition to the menu, the Sticky Toffee Pudding (see pic.) Quality creamy vanilla ice cream with chocolate sponge melting in your mouth and Toffee pouring out.....yup. The Lagers were typical cold ones that really hit the spot on a Friday afternoon starting off the weekend while gladly sliding into a beautiful Autumn Transition in cozy Lynn Valley.

Although the gyoza tasted just like store bought, with very chewy skin and not much meat inside. The restaurant is bar style, with many TVs hanging around. I would definitely come here again if there's a game going on. It's a great place to social and watch sports.

The lighting isn't the best, as the staff mostly rely on the large entrance window for natural light. Service Quality The staff was kind and friendly. They are more than happy to help you choose a sandwich if it's your first time. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Menu Variety Their sandwich selection is excellent, and the bread is particularly noteworthy. They also offer a couple of iced tea options, which is a nice alternative to water. Food Presentation If you're dining in, your sandwich will be served in a plastic basket lined with wax paper. For takeout, it's wrapped in the same wax paper. Food Taste and Quality I ordered the Spicy Italian, which had just the right amount of heat. It was generously loaded with greens, and the multigrain bread was fresh, likely baked that morning. Portion Sizes The portions are substantial. I was only able to finish half of my sandwich for lunch. Price and Value The sandwich cost about $15, which is on the pricier side. It would have been nice to see it priced around $12. Overall Experience and Recommendation If you're in the area or heading to Horseshoe Bay to catch a ferry, definitely stop by S'wich for a sandwich. I will definitely be returning to try other options on the menu.

    I came by on a casual weekday to grab some sandwiches. The price value for what you get is…read moreabsolutely worth it. I got the roast beef, and my partner got the cubano. They both had great meat-to-bread ratio. It gave what it promised, and it felt like a clean eat, which I appreciated. I'd stay away from the coffee though... Maybe it's because I'm from Portland where coffee is literally so good everywhere, but the americano was mid at best.

    Came here for a birthday dinner and I'd highly recommend this place for special occasions. Our…read morewaiter was very friendly and made sure to check in with our table throughout the meal. The place was also very well decorated and looked upscale. We were seated on the upper floor and got a nice view of the entire restaurant. As for the food, the duck poutine was so good! I'd come back here just for the duck poutine. Everything was well made and at the end of our meal, the waiter surprised us with a lovely dessert plate for the birthday celebration.

    We were so impressed. We were lucky to be seated on a Saturday evening without reservation…read more(although I DO recommend you make one.) The Happy Hour truly is the best anywhere! This was 6 months ago and I still remember our time here fondly and look forward to returning. We scarfed down the shrimp Provençal and mussels. The Empress Club is a treat for the senses - looks, smells and tastes delicious. The duck poutine is out of this world. You do need to have self-control and patience. Don't dig in right when it is served. Give the fries a chance to soak up the juicy gravy. Trust me, waaaait! It's hands down the best poutine. The cheese is a secret blend. Delectable! The service is top notch. Again, we look forward to returning.
