Some ppl eat the ambiance and vibe and the crowd. Sounds like that place literally sells themselves as long as they don't fuck it up.

Making excellent food is neither hard nor more expensive. You just need to give the slightest fuck.
Use not garbage and season it and it's like a top 5% restaurant in this culinary wasteland.

The big attraction for the dingy dock is the boat ride. It was sold in 2004 for 1.3 mill. In 2019 it was listed for 2.6 mill. Someone should email the real estate agent and try to get the financial info. https://vancouverisland.ctvnews.ca/s...wner-1.4655743

I can't imagine anyone wanting to own a restaurant or bar. Everyone I know who does is worked to death and they don't recommend it. But I guess all entrepreneurs have to bust their ass.

You pay your landlord, you staff, your supplies, etc. everybody else first, and you pay yourself last. And then you put in the insane amount of hours into it -- and it will gladly take up as much of your time as you allow yourself to give.

I think restaurant owner is the worst of the entrepreneurs though. Mainly because operating hours are the most grueling and it's easy to justify working because it saves the business money as you don't have to pay/hire another staffer.

Restaurants/pubs are some of the most glamorous businesses to own but also the most difficult to run. You also just can't hire a bunch of people to run your business.

It's been a long time since I've been but in Vancouver for legit diner vibes (not "uplevel" hipster diner vibes) I remember liking Argo Cafe in Mt Pleasant and Deacons Corner in Railtown.
Moving out to Tri Cities I've discovered Coquitlam Grill and it's been a fav of mine almost immediately.

Northern Cafe on East Kent Ave S is pretty good. I do like the burgers there more though.

Outside of Red Wagon, Yolks is another one of my favorites.
Hud 91gt I was referring to the spot you mentioned, Jam
Wildly overrated. Pancakes and eggs are hard to fuck up, and a lot of places do them well in Vancouver.
You'll never find me lining up an hour for scrambled eggs.
