"Open for: Brunch through dinner Price range: $$ Serving up excellent daily brunch, happy hour, and dinner menus, Maxine’s has been doing a roaring trade with locals since opening in 2021. The sibling restaurant to Homer Street and Tableau has already established itself as part of the Westender dining canon, as the weekend queues attest. Crowds come for generously portioned smoked salmon rosti, a gloriously messy smash burger, and the on-point cocktail and wine list. Hang out on the sun-trap patio and watch the world race past on Burrard Street, or settle into a comfy booth and graze your way from day to night. Best for: Reserve space on the semi-private side patio for long dinners with good friends." - Nikki Bayley

"Musette has road bikes mounted to the wall, signed racing jerseys everywhere, tables made out of recycled wooden racing tracks, TVs airing races, cases of helmets and bells, and other bicycle bling—all of it painstakingly collected over 15 years by the cycling-obsessed owner Thomas Eleizegui. Coffees come from the region’s top roasters, including Vancouver’s Pallet for the richer, nuttier, more chocolatey flavors. Of course, cycling and espresso are age-old friends, and the espresso, macchiato, cortado, and lattés will all keep your wheels spinning." - Jennifer Van Evra

We had a friend in town & decided to take her out for breakfast. We were there early at about 9.20am. Greeted by the server & brought us to our table. Decor was nice & modern, service was good, we ordered a platter to share, most of their bacon were made by them. The platter had different kind of sausage, bacon that was explained by the service, even had baked bone marrow. We also added fried chicken. All the dishes were very good, we enjoyed the food & even had leftovers, their drip coffee is from SaltSpring which was excellent. Our first time there, thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

We went here for breakfast on my birthday. We ordered the fried chicken on a biscuit and the Dutch baby. The portions were really big—definitely more than enough for two people. The Dutch baby was a creative dish and tasted great. The fried chicken was fresh but slightly under-seasoned; it lacked salt and marinade, so we added both salt and ketchup. I think they should include two eggs for each piece of toast to balance the dish better. Overall, it was a good experience. There’s also plenty of parking in the alley next to the restaurant.

Delicious food, everywhere was super busy on the weekend but we were able to call and set up a reservation. Got the hardwood was my first time trying marrow and have to say it was quite delicious. Then have me a whole baguette. Would recommend foe you to come check it out!

Maxine’s is a charming little French-style bistro that sits on Burrard right after the bridge. You can multiple seating options - charming booths, along a counter runner to watch the world go by through the window, out on the semi-covered patio with heaters or nestled in the back at a table. The decor is tastefully done and the tall ceilings, many mirrors and metal accents certainly evokes a charming Parisian quality. Normally, this spot is extremely popular for brunch on weekends. We went for brunch on a weekday morning and it was completely open. The servers are attentive and kind, great quality overall. The food was delicious as usual. You really can’t go wrong with their brunch menu. The croque madame and smoked salmon rosti were perfect. The beef brisket in the madame was delicious, and the cheese was oozing over the sourdough bread like lava from a volcano. Of note, they also made fresh pastries in the morning which you can purchase as well, so if you appreciate items like a butter croissant, almond croissant or double chocolate muffin (what they had this morning), you are in for a treat. Whether you’re a Vancouver local or just visiting, this is a great spot to visit. My compliments to whoever did their decor. It’s really just beautiful.

We visited this place for the first time last year and had such an amazing experience that we decided to return for lunch! Even though it was a Monday, the restaurant was quite busy, and we barely managed to get a seat. The food and service were just as fantastic as we remembered! I especially loved the holiday decorations! They made the atmosphere even more charming.

My daughter suggested we have lunch as she's been many times before but my first time. It's certainly busy & I can see why. The service is amazing as well the food. Had the smashed cheeseburger with a mixed greens salad. The burger was tasty & decently sized for a smash burger. Can see this becoming my new favorite lunch spot.

We arrived and got the seating location we had requested. Our server was attentive but not overbearing. Good wine selection. All the food was above and beyond. Could not have asked for a better evening. My previous experiences at Maxine’s, whether at brunch or dinner, are that all the staff are excellent. Will definitely be going back.

What can I say except 5 stars all around for Breakfast / Brunch? We were seated by their outdoor patio (side) which was covered from the rain with efficient heat lamps above us. Our server was genuinely friendly, warm and welcoming! She was amazing. The food was decadent! I enjoyed the Fried Chicken with Gravy and Biscuits, the Mini Doughnuts, my hot oat milk Mocha, and my daughter inhaled the West End (scrambled eggs, half half of honeyed back bacon & sausage, brioche toast); the potato hash which came with the West End was SINFULLY crispy. Outstanding meal! Highly recommend reserving online one day or many days ahead to guarantee a spot! Next time I’m going to try their Smoked Salmon Rosti and Eclair!
