Local tip
For a different mood, daytime suits bento-box lunches and free-spirit beverages, while evening brings cocktails, shared plates and live performances.

The Lobby Lounge & Rawbar is a polished lounge and dining destination at Canada Place in Vancouver, shaped around a blend of design, art, fashion and music. The setting is presented as a contemporary gathering space with the relaxed social character of a city living room, while the food and drinks give the room a more considered restaurant feel.

During the day, the venue focuses on lunch in a sleek lounge environment. Curated bento boxes provide a Japanese-influenced lunch format, while the beverage menu includes elevated free-spirit options for guests seeking drinks without alcohol. The daytime experience suits business lunches, relaxed meetups and diners looking for a stylish setting rather than a formal dining room.

After dark, the atmosphere shifts as the music becomes more prominent. The evening menu centres on modern Japanese sharables, giving groups a flexible way to dine across the table. Raw-bar selections are part of the venue's identity, complementing the Japanese direction and the lounge's drinks-led format. Cocktails play a central role in the night-time offering, with the bar providing a focus for pre-dinner drinks, social occasions and longer evenings.

Live performances add an entertainment element to the evening without changing the venue's emphasis on conversation, cocktails and shared food. The combination of lounge seating, contemporary design and music makes the space suited to guests looking for a restaurant with a social atmosphere rather than a strictly quiet meal. It also gives the venue two distinct personalities, with a composed daytime mood and a livelier evening setting.

The Lobby Lounge & Rawbar works for casual celebrations, date nights, business entertaining and group gatherings that benefit from a central lounge environment. The daytime bento offering and evening Japanese sharables make the menu adaptable to different occasions, while the raw bar and cocktail programme give the venue a clear identity. The overall style is modern, design-conscious and entertainment-oriented, with lunch, drinks, shared plates and live music forming the core of the experience.
