The fare at Bishop's is regional and seasonal. In restaurateur John Bishop's view, it makes sense to showcase British Columbia's lush bounty of seafood, organic produce and meats. His exquisite West Side restaurant blends classic and modern flavors with a casual elegance that keeps clients coming back for a truly exceptional dining experience.

We were so very saddened to hear that Bishop’s is closing. It has been our favourite restaurant since John opened in 1985. His impact on the dining scene in Vancouver, and everyone involved in the industry, is immeasurable. The staff, current and past, have always been exceptional. Our last night was a bittersweet experience. Of course, the food and service were excellent, as usual, and John was the consummate host. It was difficult to say goodbye, so we didn’t. It’s just until next time, somewhere…

It was very kind of the server to give me a complimentary glass of bubbly when I was frazzled after being very late

Took my sister for a birthday dinner and everything was delicious. She has many complicated allergies and the chef was patient and accommodating to find solutions. The wine recommendation was delicious and a few other birthdays added to the celebration. Sure hope they can stay open in 2022 as I'd like to become a regular!

It was a wonderful birthday celebration with my three sisters. From the time we arrived we were greeted warmly and throughout the evening the staff was amazing. Yes, Bishop’s is expensive but the service is top notch, the food delicious and the “Bishop Team”, clearly love what they do. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special night out. You won’t be disappointed.
