More
about the Sandbar…
Over a century ago...
Snaug (Granville Island) was known as "the
great sandbar" where local tribes came to
enjoy the rich bountiful fish & the serenity
of the location.
Today...
The locals come to enjoy The Sandbar's soulful
room, fresh seafood & uplifting music to nurture
their senses at the deepest level.
The Sandbar is a 300-seat fresh
seafood and fish restaurant in the heart of Vancouver's
world-famous Granville Island. Perched over the
waterfront with views from every seat in the restaurant;
guests can enjoy the bustle of the market, the
non-stop energy of False Creek & the shores
of Vancouver's West End.
Up
the wood post staircase (the only item that was
salvaged from the historic Mulvaney's Restaurant
site), the restaurant opens into the main dining
room displaying art from the Emily Carr class
of 2001. The busy animated open kitchen gives
the guest that 'Granville Island Market feeling'
plus an up-close look at the chefs as they prepare
their seafood creations. The Crush Wine Lounge houses over 1800 wine bottles chilled to perfection at cellar temperature. Live piano is featured in our lounge Sunday through Thursday. The Teredo Bar is the 'hot spot' of the room, equipped with an antique wooden floor for dancing to the tunes of our DJ Friday and Saturday.
Suspended above the bar in the Teredo Lounge is
Kivi, a 24-foot salmon troller hand built by Allan
Farrell, one of the west coast's finest craftsmen
of wooden boats.
