Homer Street Café walks the line nicely between trendy and relaxed. The atmosphere is polished but approachable--sophisticated without trying too hard. Subtle chicken-themed details scattered throughout the space add a bit of charm without being gimmicky. The Food Overall, the food was solid, with a few standout moments. The Caesar salad came topped with fried chicken skins, which might just be reason enough to order it. Crisp, salty, and unexpectedly addictive. Another highlight was the fried mushrooms--crispy on the outside, tender inside, and full of earthy flavor. Easily one of the best bites of the night. The pork schnitzel, on the other hand, didn't quite live up to expectations. It sounded better on the menu than it was on the plate--fine, but forgettable, especially next to the more flavorful dishes read more

I stopped at Homer St. cafe and bar in Yaletown for a late dinner on the patio and loved it. The evening was warm and outside was much quieter. Great for people watching and noticing how many people speed on that street. I went for the bone-in pork chop schnitzel, which came out crisp and juicy, with a fresh salad with a tangy vinaigrette that cut through the richness. I polished off every bite and definitely ate more than I should have. One local lager brought the bill to about $45 before tip which is on the higher side, but fair for the neighborhood. The servers were upbeat and checked on us just enough to keep waters filled without hovering. If you're after a laid-back patio meal with solid cooking and friendly service, Homer is an easy recommendation. read more

I love this funky, historic bistro with lots of small spaces and a very interesting menu. The specialty here is rotisserie chicken, and it's definitely worth trying. It's right up there with the Michelin-starred Benoit in New York City. The baby back ribs are also good, especially if you like North Carolina style mustard BBQ sauce. The star of our meal was a special: chicken fried oyster mushrooms. These were delicately fried and served with a delicious mushroom dipping sauce. The other standout was the cole slaw that accompanied the ribs. I wouldn't have said coleslaw needed kale, but it was terrific--not too rich or sweet, and nice and crispy carrots and cabbage. The wine list and cocktails are very well thought out. The BC wines by the glass were excellent, and someone really likes bitter aperitifs like Amari. I certainly do! Our server was also the bartender, and they were terrific. read more

We parked in the area around noon on a Sunday to find something to eat and this was the first restaurant we came upon. It ended up being a delicious brunch, we sat outside to enjoy the nice weather and got coffees and breakfast food.

My first time here and not only is the vibes so cute and cozy/homey, but the food was amazing! The chilaquiles were recommended by the server and they said they never changed it on the menu, and it was definitely my favourite. The dill pickle fried chicken was also great. Avocado toast was good but since we were sharing as a group of 3 it definitely got messy trying to cut it up and share it. Lastly the tater tot poutine was also a hit at the table! read more

Was scheduled to come back in the next few days but I don't think I'll return. Brisket was good in texture but everything was a bit too salty for my taste. The yellow accompanying sauce doesn't seem to pair as well as a straight gravy or barbecue sauce would. The macaroni salad should just be potato salad. The liver and pâté on waffles was interesting. Wouldn't repeat. Portions also seem small for the price. One toilet wasn't flushing so there was a lineup for bathrooms. Also really noisy on a Friday night making it hard for conversation. Bit disappointed that our server knew about my friend's birthday from my Open Table reservation but didn't do anything other than a greeting with that information. He was good about checking on ingredients for her allergies though. read more

I came here a while ago and I had a great experience. Their restaurant is beautiful inside and their patio is awesome (perfect for the summer). They have a great menu with different options, so it can help everyone with their needs. If you are struggle with their menu, their waitresses are really helpful and they can give some tips. Their cocktails are fantastic and my favourite food was their Arctic Char, which it is a gnocchi squash tomatoes and butter sauce. It was so yummy. I wish they have more options for meals but I think their focus on shareable meals. It does make sense though, great idea to socialize more with friends through the food. Great place and I do recommend to make reservations! read more

Very cute café, no air conditioning, though, so it was a little warm. The service was spotty, attentive at times, and slow at other times. Food was picturesque. Turkish eggs were delicious, and the spinach and mushroom eggs benedict were so good. Potatoes were good, salad was bland. The lavender lemonade tasted like plain lemonade, no lemonade. The food took longer than expected to come out. Some paid street parking available. read more

It was the first time we tried Homer Street Bistro and it was lovely. It is very loud but still enjoyable. We brought our own bottle of wine because my husband did not like the prices or the wines that they had available. While we were sitting at the table the sommelier came up to us and asked us about the bottle of wine we had brought along as he was curious. When my husband showed him the bottle. He said OMG - I know the winery and the owners are very good friends of mine in fact I'm going to a 3 day event at their winery and I'll be staying with them. I'll have to tell them that customers did BYOB and brought their wine. We offered him a taste of the wine and he quickly accepted. Homer Street Bisstro has a Michelin recommendation for their chicken. My husband had the chicken for his entree and I have to say it is the best chicken that I've ever tasted in a restaurant. I had the special of the evening - spot prawns with linguine and it also was amazing. The prawns were perfectly cooked and the linguine was a perfect compliment to go with it. We shared an order of chicken fried oyster mushrooms as an appetizer. It was a terrific evening. The service was good and the food amazing. Reservations are definitely recommended read more

I usually have a great time here but I was in on Friday night with some friends and because one of them was pregnant she wasn't drinking, but we ordered non alcoholic cocktail and wine and ate food. We were enjoying a leisurely time, but about 45 minutes into our sit, the waitress and possibly even manager interrupted us many times asking if we needed anything else. It genuinely reminded me of wasps buzzing around interrupting your meal. They had no tact, just butted in every 5 to 10 minutes to ask if we needed anything else. It felt like they were asking us to leave, because we weren't drinking a lot of alcohol or something. We weren't even there very long! They weren't asking if we needed anything else, the subtext was - order more drinks, or leave. It was gross. We were still picking at our food, and maybe we would have stayed and ordered more if we didn't feel so unwelcome. It felt gross, like we were commodities interrupting the flow of capital. And of course, that's the world - but they were so bald about it that I can't help but feel embarrassed for them. Hope they learn some customer service, tact or grace. read more

Walked by here very often and always wanted to try. We were seated outside on the patio for brunch. The restaurant itself is very aesthetic and service was very prompt given how busy the restaurant was on a long weekend at 11am. Ordered the rigatoni alla carbonara and was disappointed. The sauce was overly salty, and barely coated the noodles. The noodles tasted al dente, and the egg was cooked perfectly, however I only tasted salt from the sauce. read more

Had dinner here our first night in Vancouver. They were super busy and we didn't have a reservation (it was only 5:00 and already they were on a wait) but they got us in pretty quickly. We ordered the gnocchi and steak frite. The gnocchi surprised me- it was very differently shaped in large coin-size rounds rather than pillows. It was very good! The steak was perfectly done with a tasty chimichurri sauce. Tables are pretty close to each other so not the best place for intimate conversation but overall it has a nice vibe. read more

Went here after work for happy hour/late lunch. We were warmly greeted by hostess as soon as we walked in. The great service continued with our amazing waitress. The were so accommodating to us by making a cocktail not in season and off menu. All the food we had was great but I recommend getting the tuna crudo and happy hour burger the most. The burger was well priced and tasted good. read more

Had a terrific and flavorful client dinner here. I got the brisket with cabbage coleslaw and it was so flavorful and soft to chew. I highly recommend. Easy five in flavors and quality of what the kitchen prepared. We got many appetizers. The tuna was very flavorful as well as the Brussel sprouts. Most dishes had terrific sauces that added all the savory/sweet flavor. The chicken wings I'd skip. Nothing special and they are more like fried chicken than chicken wings. Desserts were great like the chocolate puddin'. The butter tart was just ok, but a little small for the price. I recommend the puddin'. Excellent professional service. We sat upstairs with a fun rooster-filled wall. Check it out before you go. read more

our third stop of the evening was homer street cafe and bar on a friday night around 6:30 pm. the place was buzzing and really loud, full of energy. homer street cafe is part of the same restaurant group as tableau and maxine's. i had always thought of it as the small spot on the corner of homer and smithe, but i was surprised by how spacious it actually is. the restaurant has high ceilings, large windows, and white walls with elegant molding that create an open, airy feel. industrial-style pendant lights give off a warm glow, and wooden accents add some coziness. it blends modern and classic design elements, feeling like something you'd find in soho or greenwich village. outside, they've got a charming patio with red umbrellas, picnic tables, and plenty of greenery. it feels like a european courtyard, both lively and relaxed. i ordered the watermelon spritz for $16, made with campari, fresh watermelon juice, sparkling wine, and soda. honestly, the drink wasn't very sweet at all--it leaned more on the bitter side. we weren't too hungry but decided to share the hscb burger for $22. the burger was cooked medium rare, topped with melted cheddar, bacon, special sauce, shredded lettuce, pickles, and came with crispy golden fries. while it was decent, i've had better burgers elsewhere. it was still a nice spot to kick off the weekend, and i'd love to come back for brunch next time. read more

Centrally located restaurant with a bar brunch menu. The restaurant is spacious and allows for privacy. The staff are friendly and attentive, they are also mindful or allergies or preferences. It is easy to substitute items from the menu. I was excited about their lavender gin cocktail but I was a little disappointed. The cocktail was very acidic and I couldn't taste the lavender much. I would've also preferred if their hash potatoes were crispier and had bit more flavour. However, their fried chicken was the right amount of crispy and the gravy made it better. read more

We came to Homer St. Cafe and Bar as a group of six with reservation ahead. I messaged the restaurant on the reservation platform regarding one of the guests in wheelchair, they responded promptly and we were seated at a table with accessibility upon arrival. The restaurant has a nice decor, and we were able to see the action in the open kitchen. The Fully Monty had the variety of food we wanted to try, chicken, ribs, briskets, biscuits, potatos, beets salad, and coleslaw. Everything was flavorful, some of the reviews indicated the chicken was dry, this was certainly not the case for us. We also got the Cobb salad which was amazing, the presentation is one of the best I've had. The Ling Cod was fresh, the beans are a bit too salty based on the three people in our group that had it. Butter tart was amazing, the flakey shell was fantastic, and the chocolate pudding also delicious. Service was impeccable throughout, our waitress was attentive, and so were all the other staff. This was a late birthday celebration, and everyone really enjoyed this meal. read more

This is a good place! We came to Vancouver as tourists, and needed a place with excellent food and atmosphere, and good service and that's what we found here. My wife has motion challenges and couldn't negotate the steps inside, so the hostess rounded up the manager and another waitstaff person and the three of them worked to find a solution and get us past the steps and into the restaurant for dinner - they wouldn't give up until we were in and satisfied. Other places would have just blown a couple of older tourists off. Homer St. Cafe is an excellent fit in the neighborhood, - and it was obvious that the locals liked it as well as we did! There's lots of great choices on the menu - something for everyone. I'm sorry I can't remember our servers name (when traveling, we meet tons of new people.....lots of names to remember) but she maintained a high level of professionalism and was personable as well while she served us - clerk # 002788. Suggestion to Homer: put the server's first name on the receipt so that customers can acknowledge good service! read more

Always wanted to try this place as it looked so cozy and cute whenever I walked by. Its also always full of people. Ambiance is very nice and felt like a cafe in France. Food was not good - portions were small for the price. I got the tater tot poutine with brisket. Brisket was dry, there were so little tater tots, and the entire dish was very salty with no other flavours. Also found a large piece of eggshell which I informed the server about. They offered to remake the dish but I did not want to eat the dish again so I said it was fine . At the end they gave us a butter tart on the house for the eggshell which was nice of them read more

Convenient location downtown for a quick bite. Trendy Parisian styled interiors and atmosphere. Our friends made a reservation for brunch one month in advance to line up after the Vancouver Sun Run. I thought the food was tasty but unfortunately not as memorable as I hoped. Perhaps I was not trying their signature dishes. Their americano and cappuccinos were quite delicious. We ordered: the Big Breakfast and Smoked Salmon. The Big Breakfast hit the spot, we enjoyed how the russet potatoes were cut in slices versus the usual dice. Kale could have been a bit more tender or chopped into smaller pieces. The Smoked Salmon potato pancakes could have been thicker, the slices of pancakes were over fried and engulfed by the salmon. read more

Tasty snacks for sure. read more

I have been recommended this place so many times and was so happy to try it out! Finally! I love that they take reservations and are also very accommodating to dietary needs. I can't tell you how amazing that is! We made reservations for 3 for brunch and were sat outside. Unfortunately, their was a strong smell of urine and so we asked to move. They did accommodate us, a bit hesitantly, but we were sat inside. I was torn between the OMELETTE (Macedonian feta, dried tomato, olive, crispy Russet potato, greens) and the LIL' HOMIE BREAKY SANDY (egg, sausage patty, crushed tater tots, brioche bun, HP aioli, greens) but no meat. I chose the sandwich because I am a sucker for tater tots. We waited almost an hour for food! It was crazy and when the food came, it was not over hot. My sandwich was huge but was very basic. Hot sauce was needed and I don't think I should have messed with the meat. It probably made the dish. Regardless, the food/service/experience was disappointing. I was not into the hype but maybe its just me? read more

Our first impression was not good. We waited by the door for the place to open at 10:30 am for brunch and once we approached the hostess (Melissa) she was unwelcoming, cold and dismissive. The manager (Tom) spoke to me about it and his demeanor was professional, concerned and very apologetic and smoothed things over with us. It was a relief to see someone of his capability in charge, because we felt that the hostess for whatever reason just did not want to seat us, and actually told me, "well....I'll seat you but you have to be out by 12!". Our server (Nancy) was just as great as the manager and shocked of our first experience at the front as far as first impressions go. The Americanos we ordered were great! Really nice rustic and full body flavour perfect for your first morning cup of coffee served in a sparkling clean coffee mug and piping hot. However, I wasn't crazy about the French Toast. I'm not sure why but it was covered with a massive amount of whip cream. I mean sure....I've had french toast with some whip cream but this was more like.....whip cream with french toast and not the other way around. I did manage to wipe most of it off my toast but after a little while there was just a pool of melted whip cream in the plate....kinda confused me a little bit as to ...why? why put so much? Aside from the food. This experience was a perfect example of the quality of any restaurant being reflective of its team work. It was only and only because of the manager's response to his incapable, unprofessional and, in my opinion, unsuitable hostess that we are willing to possibly return or tell our friends about this cozy little cafe. Our server's friendly attitude, attention and hard work breathed new air into the foul first impression we received from a very polar team member. read more

Lively fun spot for brunch with an amazing french toast. 3.5 stars Food: 3.5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: yes Return worthiness: maybe Eve awards: best french toast with whipped ricotta Highlights: - French toast: star of meal, 3 fluffy thick brioche toasts with a custardy sweet flavor to them. Were great on its own, but the whipped ricotta, chopped pistachios and honey were next level perfect. Couldn't stop eating it. 5 stars - Great vibe and large with tons of seating areas: by the kitchen in a bright long room, inside by the bar, outdoor on the sidewalk, etc. - Waiter: super nice and had the toppings come on the side for the french toast. Worked well since my kid likes things plain but I still got to enjoy all the amazing toppings. ;-) - Watermelon spritz: was a different option to have on a spritz menu - House bubbles: appreciate that they are French Midlights: - Big breakfast: was ok, eggs were great and cooked as requested over easy, but being homemade I had high expectations of the bacon and sausage and they were just ok. I saw the benedicts being sent out and wish I would've gotten that with the fresh sliced ham. 3 stars Lowlights: - Tater tot brisket poutine: sounded so amazing, but had more opportunity to live up to its potential. The brisket was tiny squares that were a bit dry and it needed a lot more gravy. 2.75 stars Had a fun time here but if we returned, I would order other things next time in addition to the french toast. read more

Great downtown "Cafe" / "Bistro" style eatery, located in a Historic building, Homer St. Cafe & Bar offers a great hangout for family & friends. Love the service here as they are all attentive and friendly, kudos to Christ for making our lunch relaxing and fun! Highlights ... Watermelon Spritz ... campari, fresh watermelon juice, sparkling wine ... need I say more? The Homer Cobb ... almost half a sphere of iceberg lettuce topped with blue cheese, bacon ( yes, this is the soul of this salad ), onsen egg ... thats not it ... the lettuce floats on top of juicy pulled chicken, mashed avocado ... mix it all together and you get each mouthful of fresh crispy lettuce with all the savoury goodness of the toppings! My suggestion, get one order slice it in 4s and each of you will have a great starter!! Bistro Filet was done to perfection and I love the crispy Russet potatoes ( wonder if they can be ordered separately ) ... its that good! Great atmosphere ... relaxing and casual ... sit near the kitchen to feel the passion of the kitchen staff putting their skills to each and every dish! read more

I really wanted to go to a fancier restaurant for dinner one night on vacation so I chose Homer Cafe. I arrived around 4:10pm to catch a bit of their happy hour. I ended up having to be put on a waiting list and waiting for about 30-40 minutes for a seat at the bar. This was unusually long for me as someone just looking for one seat but either way, the bartender was great and helped me a lot with the menu. For happy hour, you can't order dinner until 5:30pm so I just got some fries and a drink to tide me over. It was a bit of a mistake because I ended up filling up on fries but ordered the gnocchi anyway because it looked awesome LOL. The fries were AMAZING. Wow, they were so good. And the garlic aioli was awesome. The gnocchi on the other hand was good but not great. I liked it and I would eat it again but it wasn't as good as I was expecting. Overall I think this place was a 3.8 out of 5 but I'll round up to 4 stars because the wait time wasn't really their fault. If you're in the area, they're really nice for happy hour but be prepared to wait. read more

This is cute spot that is actually Michelin recommended, but so chill and unpretentious . The servers are attentive and knowledgable about the menu. I don't drink alcohol so I was only drinking some soda water with bitters and one of the servers in the bar(where we are seated & not our server) noticed my drink, since it was my birthday he asked me a couple of questions about what I like...not too sweet, more on the savory side...and he actually brought me a very beautiful & tasty drink, lots of ginger & just a hint of sweetness from pineapple juice. I'm not sure the name of it but I think if you go up to the bartender, they would be able to craft something for you to your liking, it's that kind of place! Although we had reservations, we were seated at a high top table in the bar. Not terrible but 2/4 of us had to sit on tall chairs that were hard & felt like they could tip over but I got to sit on the banquet which was much more comfortable. For appetizers we had the burrata, steak tartar with tater tots...probably my favorite appetizer closely followed by the chicken liver & foie gras which was like a smooth, velvety mousse piped onto a wedge of a Belgium waffle! So good! We also had the chicken fried oyster mushrooms which were served with a kombu emulsion but it was strangely sweet...I would have preferred something a little tastier to dip the fried mushrooms in but the crust & crunch on the outside of the mushrooms was great. Pretty tasty on their own but I would have like a better dipping sauce. We ended up ordering The Full Monty dinner since Homer St. Cafe is known for their rotisserie items. The Full Monty has all of it...half of a chicken, served with half rack of ribs, 6 slices of brisket plus biscuits, and 3 sides that are actually on the Veggie Menu. It's the way to go if you have a party of 3+ people, lots of variety & the stuff they are known for. The Full Monty also comes with dessert! The Full Monty is worth getting just for the dessert it's served with alone! Butter Tarts, crispy cups of thin layered dough filled with a warm, brown sauce much lighter than a pecan pie. When you break it open, the sauce spills onto the ice cream and plate more like the thickness of honey or slightly thinner. They also sent out a slice of Cinnamon Bun Cheesecake, I'm not the biggest fan of cheesecake so I'm so glad we got those Butter Tarts. I would definitely recommend this spot...it's casual yet the menu is slightly elevated & grown up. read more

Came here on a Tuesday for lunch. The space of the restaurant had an old world charm, and the service was friendly. I was not very impressed with the food I had ordered. But it's my fault, as I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I had ordered the Lamb Sirloin with Tomato Panzanella. In my mind, I had thought that I was getting a hot dish, but upon my first bite of the panzanella, I was shocked to find that my dish was cold. I didn't realize that panzanella was a salad dish. I had hoped that the sirloin would bring a little temperature to the dish, but the meat was only lukewarm. While I was upset at the temperature of my food, I did enjoy the flavours that it had. read more

Server: Stefania Price: $110 + tax & gratuity ($$$$) Homer St. Cafe and Bar has been on my list for very long time, and I finally have the chance to try it. I was super amazed with how good it was and did not disappoint me. I waited for so long, and it was worth it. Before I depict to the food, I would like to thank my server, Stefania, for making my lunch the most wonderful lunch ever. Stefania was the most funny and cheerful server I have ever been served with. Thank you so much for your wonderful service. Stefania was definitely the star of the experience here for me. Starters - Steak Tartare ($18): The steak tartare with smoked sour cream, onion potato chips and grana padano was just perfect to be eaten together. The home-made chips was just too good. Totally one of the home-made chips I have ever tasted in the whole world. The mix of the tartare and the grana padano was just perfect, and it could not go wrong with the chips. (5/5) - Chicken Wings ($16): The wings with salt and pepper and home-made buttermilk ranch was good. It was full of taste. The buttermilk ranch was just top notch home-made sauce. (5/5) - Spicy Pork Jowl ($16): The pork jowl with home-made chili sauce, cucumber, crispy shallots and cilantro was the star of the food. This is something you should definitely get. The spicy asian fusion taste of the pork was just sublime. Easily perfect. (5/5) Mains - Arctic Char ($32): The artic char with new potato, stinging nettle, brown butter and caper vinaigrette was quite good. I personally love the potato and the mix sauce. The artic char is a little bit dry, but it was not bad. (4/5) Sides - Brussel Sprouts ($11): The brussels sprouts with bacon and sherry vinaigrette was very good though. This is definitely recommended to get for your sides. (5/5) Unfortunately, we did not get any dessert since my stomach was already full, and we could not fill any more. We wished we could have ordered less so that we could get some desserts. Nonetheless, the experience at Homer St. Cafe and Bar was just truly exceptional. The service, the spicy pork jawl and the interesting mix taste were just truly top notch. I would definitely come back here again. Recommended! See you soon! Cheers! read more

Best sandwich I've ever had. Cute ambiance outside with great service! Would def recommend.

**COVID Edition** With the COVID regulations, my group arrived in 2 parties - a party of 6, and a party of 4. We sat in separate tables and did everything separately. Not sure if it's due to COVID regulations, maybe staffing was limited? However, our food between the two groups did not arrive nearly around the same time. One group finished their food by the time the second group got their food. So there was a bit of delay in having to stay at the restaurant longer and wait till the second group finished their food. Our waitress was very lovely and patient with us. She walked us through the menu and despite forgetting to bring our wine bottle, she tried her best to get everything in for us in a timely manner. There were definitely hits and misses on their menu. But love love love their large portions! We ordered the Rotisserie The Full Monty, which was massive - recommend for either 2 very hungry big eaters or ideally 3 people. - Chicken was one of the best ever had however the ribs were a miss. Hot sauce gave tabasco vibes. Buttermilk biscuits were a miss as well - thought it'd be similar to Red Lobster but did not make the cut. Other recommendations: - Steak Tartare - Chicken Liver Parfait - Fries (extra crispy) - Oysters (there were mixed reviews on this one, but I enjoyed it) - HSCB Burger - Lamb Shank Mixed reviews on the Mussels - one enjoyed having the fries soaked in the mussels sauce, gave it more flavor. However the other felt like they had better Mussels elsewhere. So this one depends on one's taste preferences. read more
