My boyfriend and I are from California and was looking for a good breakfast place and was recommended to go here. So glad we did! The food was amazing so were the drink staff was so friendly. They even told us other good places to check out. We'd definitely go back. read more

Great place for large group. Owner was very accommodating and arranged reasonably priced fixed menu for us. Food quality was fantastic and service was top notch. Highly recommend! read more

This new spot is trying to compete with the Naam for the most uninspiring service in Vancouver, so get comfortable. The food is worth waiting for, and if the managers figure out how to staff this place, it could be something special. read more

Brunch is definitely the meal to have here (they have more vegetarian options than they do for dinner) The poached eggs over creamy lentils was a great brunch choice. When I went back for dinner I was forced to choose a seafood dish which was sub par. The restaurant has a nice rustic vibe. read more

Service was polite but slow and inconsistent. Asked for coffee refill twice and never received any. Took over 15 mins to get our bill. Food was ok. read more

The steak and eggs with kimchi fried rice is one of the beat meals I've had in van city. All the flavors!! The wait can be super long but worth the wait! read more

I've been to Catch 122 four times and every time has been great. A beautiful space, wood and brick and concrete flooring. Lovely service, friendly, care and attention to detail. Their brunch menu is great. No problem with substitutions. Lunch also great, nice salads and soups. Recently, we had a staff brunch at Catch 122 and everyone raved about their meal, the service and how they accommodated our seating needs. I will definitely be back and letting others know about this great place. read more

wait time- about 30 minutes wife got the french toast special and i got the chicken and waffles. my wife liked her dish and it was great as a leftover as well. the chicken was amazing. it was the thigh so juicer w a tasty crispy crust. the waffles were hard to chew, thick, dry, and not sweet at all. there was a scant amount of syrup which i tried to savor but it was overpowered by this honey butter that was more salty less honey. but the chicken was great. the wording on their saturday brunch coffee special that said coffee plus a shot-- $3.50, but actually turned out to be coffee 3.25 plus an additional 3.50. We must have read it wrong or something. Confusing, beware. despite the cardboard like waffles and tricky coffee pricing, the tasty chicken and french toast still made for a positive experience. Friendly service. give it a go! read more

We were in Canada for a day, and wanted to go to Jam on Betty. The line was a 2 hr wait so we tried Catch 122. What a great choice, everything was very delicious. We ordered the Belgian waffle, the Bread Pudding French toast and the Chorizo hash, which were all very tasty. The chorizo hash was my favorite, but would recommend all three. We also ordered a few espresso drinks which were also very good. Definitely will visit Catch 122 again! read more

Un-imaginary bland dishes accompanied by bad coffee. What a disappointed brunch! The price point was high in relation to the quality of food served. read more

Loved this place! Came here after cafe medina and jam had super long waits and it was a happy surprise! The mango mimosa is delicious, I also had the salmon Benedict which was awesome. We sat at the bar and the service was great and the bar seating was super comfy. Highly recommend! read more

I love their branch options, service is great and food is delicious. However, today I came at 3:20 pm (and they are supposed to be open till 4) and they have already closed the doors. About 2 months ago, me and my friend called them to ask if they are open and they said yes. So, we took a cab and when we got there, they were closed for the WHOLE day for a private event. That really pissed us off since we called prior to coming. read more

Highly disappointing. Go to Denny's instead. The hash was almost burnt. The ham, underwhelming as hell and the beans, tasteless.

I enjoyed my brunch here. Portions were big enough that my girlfriend and I split an eggs benny(it came with two) and I got a very large beer for pretty cheap. Food was rustic, but good and filling. read more

I just had the slow roasted pulled pork grilled cheese sandwich and yes it tasted as good as it sounds. Service was friendly and fast. Reasonable price and overall good atmosphere. You could do a lot worse for lunch than here. read more

My gf and I ordered the benedict, yogurt oatmeal, coffee and another drink. The benedict was good but the color of the egg kind of scared my girlfriend off so I was happy to eat it (the color of eggs depends on what is fed to the chickens when raised) read more

Came here with my girlfriend for brunch on a weekday after being turned off by the ridiculously long line at Cafe Jam. We were seated right away and taken care of promptly by our waiter. I ordered the Gastown Classic and found it to be a generous portion with the eggs being cooked right to my liking. Iced coffee was also on point. I would definitely come back again considering that our meal was both delicious and affordable! read more

Dissapointingly mediocre... lovely space, but the food just doesn't deliver.

Wow. I was thoroughly impressed with brunch here from the freshness of the ingredients to the inventive cocktails and beer selection to the bar service and decor. There can be a bit of a wait depending on the time of day but it was absolutely worth it. I would guess there is nothing on the menu that would disappoint and the potatoes are scrumptious. I had the pastrami sandwich which was so delicious and not too heavy. I would visit again if only we had more time on our trip. read more

One of my favourite brunch spots. Come either later in the afternoon or super early because spots do fill quickly. All brunch dishes are all $12 - which is super cheap! read more

Amazing breakfast! Went there this morning. Waiter was attentive and breakfast was delicious. The beans were to die for. Nom nom!!!

My first time there was great, then my second time was terrible...then I try again and again. But your food quality is so inconsistent that I gave up. read more

Came here for dinner, ordered appies and entrees. They forgot our entrees, no apologies, no restitution. I've been here before and loved the food, service and atmosphere, so was extremely disappointed. Will not be back. read more

Food was great. Had the 'catch of the day' which was halibut with asparagus risotto. Loved it. And the espresso Creme Brûlée was excellent (I'm stealing the iced grapes idea). Really want to try brunch. Go eat here! read more

A great choice in Gastown for solid and reasonably priced French cuisine. Service was friendly and efficient. We were one of the first tables in, as we were going to a show at the QE Theatre which is within easy walking. My onion soup was nice and tasty without that "slimy" texture that some get. The duck leg confit a la orange was nicely cooked, and served with a bean and sausage accompaniment. My dining partner started with the warm poach pear salad, which was given a "nothing special" rating and the beef ribs, which were rated "very tasty". I closed with the mocha creme brulee and he with the crepe suzette, both get a thumbs up. In short, maybe not the best French in Vancouver but a great value for the price and good service. As an aside, I take all Dine Out reviews with a grain of salt. It really doesn't give you a true view of any restaurant's normal operation read more

This is a great place to check out they have a wonderful happy bar from 3 to 6. They also have 6 dollar wine deals on their wine selection on Wednesday. My friend and I ended up chatting for house and our server was attentive while also letting us enjoy our conversation. Lastly they have a really enjoyable ambiance. read more

Came here for a great supper. I had the duck breast, and the others in my party had the salmon and the seared tuna + asparagus salad. the duck breast was extremely tasty, as were the sides that it came with. We shared the homemade bread &b butter and pork terrine for an appetizer. The bread & butter were amazing. Their drink menu isn't the most extensive, but they've got the classics covered, plus a decent list of in-house concoctions, and good beer and wine lists. If they wanted to work on something, I would suggest diversifying and slightly expanding the desert menu, as well as improving the quality of the espresso (it seemed to have been drawn correctly, but I don't think the beans were great). That being said, our appies and mains were so good, as was the ambience and service that I'm still giving 5 stars. Finally, they have several large tables, and the space seemed really well suited for larger parties. read more

I love their open dining area and the breakfast/brunch here is pretty amazing. I'm always debating if it's worth the price, but the food is always tasty. You can also pick up the free WiFi from the Hive co-op space which is a nice added bonus. read more

Had a great eggs Benedict. Good combination of flavors and just the right size with hash. Nice service . With a good environment

We never even got sat down to have lunch. We were a group of 5 with a reservation. We stood at the door to be greeted (that never came), after 10 mins of being patient (there were about 12 people at the door now), we approached one of the waiters and he said that they are waiting for some tables to open up. Fair enough, but there was a cafeteria type table for 10 and another table of 4 empty and clean the entire time we were there. After 20 mins of this we left. No one came up to us and explained what was going on let alone a simple greeting. What a waste of time. Never going back. read more

Amazing brunch deals and specials! Loved coming here for different tastes and the brick walls are pretty cool. Everyone is pretty friendly and there can be a wait. But like with most brunch places you'll want a reso. read more

Came to try this breakfast place on recommendation from a friend. The restaurant is darkly lit inside and has the feel of a bar and evening hangout. On a Thursday morning it was relatively quiet with only a few tables with customers. Our server was friendly and polite and got our drink and food orders quickly. They were happy to accommodate a slight variation on one menu item. My little one got crayons and a colouring sheet. We ordered eggs Benedict with salmon, mushroom omelette x2, side of sausage, the catch 122, tea and French press coffee Also ordered the duck confit poutine. The food was as expected for a breakfast menu. The hash side with the entrees seemed overly fried and dark but had a nice crisp. Kale and mixed green salad was nice. Eggs Benedict was slightly overdone, the egg was almost solid and no oozing of the yolk. I was disappointed with the the duck poutine. The dish was not hot enough so the cheese curds did not melt and were solid throughout. There was bits of Brie throughout that was a nice variation but didn't really add to the overall dish. The duck confit was not well seasoned meat and tasted bland, the gravy was unremarkable. The food was overall fair. No change table for little ones in the women's washroom. Good ambience for couples and small groups. read more

The food was very good. I didn't think one could get more creative with eggs but clearly they can! The use of avocado and hollandaise sauce is perfect. read more

Really good breakfast, everything was $13 plus so many mimosas. They were super accommodating with my dairy allergy, and my friend's inability to each pork or beef! read more

We first come in around 10:40 on a Sunday morning for a group of 9. Got quoted 30-45mins. We didn't get to sit down til 11:45am. Since we were able to look at the menu during our long wait, we were ready to order once we sat down. Once the server, Evan, took our order, we were served complimentary chocolate chip banana bread which was a nice touch. We later got our food and we were floored by the taste. Our group ordered a variety from the brunch menu. I ordered the eggs benedict with Salmon and it was cooked to perfection. The yolk was runny, and even the small salad had a sweet taste to it. Would definitely come back for brunch, just hoped the quote time was more accurate. read more

Best Brunch spot in Vancouver! I've eaten here so many times and have never been disappointed. Worth any wait in line, but if you don't like waiting just arrive early usually you'll get right in :) read more

Its Dine-Out season, which means its time to explore new places and ditch the norms! For my 1st place of this year, I chose Catch 122. Catch 122 is quite lofty in appearance, much like meat & bread down the street. The location is quite troublesome to find parking, the best I could find on a sat evening was on cordova across from the public house. Catch 122 to me is unique, its a love affair and a break-up at the same time, which reflects its rating. The docked marks are for service and entrees. The rest of the menu was fine. For service, it was horrible. My friend and I were greeted and sat down by the owner; so good thus far. We looked at the menu for a good couple of minutes, then looked around for a waiter; not even a stare or word of acknowledgement. =Z This continues for a good 5-7 minutes? Until we got pretty frustrated and started waving our arms violently flagging down someone. The servers were confused as to whom section we belonged to and were promptly served with water and our orders taken there after. Understanding our frustration, our server offered us 2 drinks on the house. =) The appetizers we've chosen were the smoked salmon and the wild boar. The smoked salmon was not what I had envisioned but it was pretty good nevertheless. It looks like a strip of baked salmon but its actually lightly smoked to a 'tataki' texture of cooked outside and raw inside. The wild boar terrine was quite good aswell, it was sweet and savoury served on a slice of brioche with red wine pickled onions and some greens. On to entrees, which was the real kicker =( We both chose the arctic char which was a mistake. One of us should of taken another choice but we couldn't of foreseen the horrors that would await us in a couple of minutes. The char was pan seared on a bed of peas, roots? spuds?, and topped off with a couple of pieces of smoked mussels. Looks innocent enough, but man...there was way too many peas...it was like an ocean! The char was smoking hot but upon 'deeper' inspection, it revealed a completely raw center for pretty thin, tail-end piece of fish... horrified at the somewhat dead piece of fish infront of us, we quickly flagged down a server to either get us a new one or blast it with some fire. Our entrees came back on new plates and new pieces of fish. This time, it was the complete opposite; so cooked and tough, it was like eating gum. =( We reached an understanding that continuing to send back our entrees was probably not in our best interest as we might get some 'interest' back on our order. DESSERT! says the pastry cook. Ive probably seen it all and tasted it all but hot damn, it was pretty hella good. We ordered a carrot cake and the caramel brownie ice cream. My friend literally licked her carrot cake plate, stating that its the BEST CARROT CAKE EVARRRR! The cake was deconstructed into the cake portion, carrot puree, and Quenelle of cream cheese mousse. The caramel chocolate brownie ice cream was quite innocent looking but secretly, it was lightly spiked with some whiskey. thanks to the whiskey, the hazelnut ice cream tasted great along with the grounded hazelnuts which gave it good texture. The night ended with an apology by the owner about service, then proceeded to ask us for feedback. I pretty much said what I wrote here to him in hopes it would fix some of the problems in the near future. I was surprised but I give props to the owner for stepping up and being the bigger man in acknowledging where fault lies. Would I come back? Not sure. The desserts were great, so maybe if that was the only thing I was craving for and around the neighbourhood, then sure! A mixed three, out of five. read more

We used to come here all the time for their amazing brunch! But the last couple times we've been really disappointed in the quality. Their sourdough bread and fried chicken are still really good, but their eggs are way overdone. I got the avocado toast the other day and the whole thing was much smaller than before and way too sour. The worst part were the poached eggs which were way overdone. Amateur mistake. Very disappointed. Hope they address this issue. There are way better brunch places now around the area. read more

This was my partner and I's first meal in Vancouver and was my favorite one we had during our week here. We came on a weekday and were seated immediately. We ordered the eggs and toast, liege waffles (comes with 2), and the harvest hash. The eggs and toast: Their house-made sourdough was very thick and tasty, the eggs were seasoned well (we asked for them scrambled and they came on top of the toast), and there was also a blistered tomato on the side of the dish. We both really enjoyed it! The liege waffle was amazing, we really enjoyed the fruit preserves - it seemed like blackberry and blueberry - plus the almonds and mascarpone (Also infused with berries!) was a real treat and very dimensional with good texture. Lastly, the harvest hash was delicious. I hadn't had anything quite like this before and really enjoyed the different components and textures. Personally I'd like my potatoes a little more cooked (they were slightly hard/crunchy), but it didn't bother me much. The yam puree was a standout for me, something I'm going to try to make myself! So smooth and creamy and went well with everything in the dish. I don't typically comment on plating but it was all beautifully presented as well. 100% somewhere we'd return to and would recommend to anyone in Vancouver. read more

Loved the ambiance and service here! We got here early on a Saturday before the rush came for brunch. The food itself was unlike any breakfast food I've ever had.. It had unique dishes that were good, but not my cup of tea. I ordered the catch-122 which was good, but the salmon with eggs wasnt my type of combination. My friend ordered the bacon porridge; unfortunately, he just couldnt eat the dish because he didn't care for the taste. I also tried it, and didn't like it. read more
