Chic, relaxed, and seriously underrated — perfect for a classy yet casual night out. 🍸🍽️

I came to Prestons not knowing what to expect, but I left genuinely impressed. It’s stylish without being pretentious — modern decor, a beautiful bar, and plenty of comfortable seating both indoors and outside.

The menu has a little something for everyone: steaks, seafood, pasta — and they’re not just “hotel food” like you might assume. I had the grilled salmon with risotto and it was buttery, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. We also ordered their truffle fries and a couple cocktails (try the cucumber gin fizz — so refreshing), and everything hit the mark.

Service was surprisingly fast and very professional. Our server was attentive without hovering and made great recommendations that suited our taste.

It’s also a great spot if you're looking for somewhere quiet to have a drink and chat — whether it’s after work or before heading downtown. The fact that they offer takeout and delivery as well just adds to the flexibility.

If you’re near Coal Harbour or downtown Vancouver, definitely give Prestons a try — you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

I’ll be back soon — and next time, I’m bringing more friends. ✨

I usually stop by for lunch during work days and I just love the atmosphere, I must mention that Maureen is really friendly and always so helpful. Definitely coming back for the burger !!

Our first breakfast at the restaurant was better than the second day. People who follow a vegan diet, be sure to ask if what you are ordering is actually vegan. Although the chia pudding states it’s vegan on the menu, they had put Greek yogurt in it and I had to confront them as I knew it wasn’t vegan when they brought it! This was confirmed by staff after I confronted them and sent it back.

Ordered take out.. instead of room service. Big mistake. Dinner 33$ plus a tip. Which i should have skipped. Food slopped in the container. No seperate dish for the tarter sauce. Lemon plopped on top of the sauce. Soggy fish batter that flopped off when lifted. Fried placed on top of the coleslaw and tarter. Never again.

Good spot for a bite and drink. The cocktails were perfect, food was delicious. Only complaint is the service, the waitress made a mistake with our order first time and forgot to bring our drinks out. Overall service was really slow, seemed unorganized.

Absolutely no issue with the food or service, but the menu online was very misleading. We asked for the daily special as we only wanted a small dinner, only to be told the specials were only available at lunchtime. There's nothing on their website to show this.

Food surprisingly good, but calamari could have been crispier
Service a bit chaotic but nothing major.
Reasonable price for a hotel, but no view
