Sunday suppers are a time-honoured tradition, and there are a few noteworthy Vancouver restaurants upholding the practice of bringing people together to sup on plates of comforting fare in the spirit of family.
Whether it’s by the plate, or lobster by the pound, or served up at communal tables, here are four Vancouver restaurants offering special Sunday suppers.

Every Sunday The Fat Badger serves a Sunday Roast, a dinner tradition direct from the UK. Sunday Roast dinners can be enjoyed by one guest, or shared by a large group. The roasts are served as plate per person and pricing is dependent on the cut of meat, ranging from $20 to $30. Like the rest of Fat Badger’s menu, the Sunday roast is only announced on the menu in house and on their Instagram account, so keep an eye out for what’s being dished up each week. Past menus have included chicken with duck fat roasted potatoes, Brussels sprouts, carrots, and gravy or leg of lamb, duck fat roasted potatoes, carrot puree, wilted greens, chanterelles, and piquillo peppers.

Sunday Lobster Supper at WildTale
Head to Yaletown’s WildTale Coastal Grill to indulge in their weekly lobster-centric feats. Their Sunday Lobster Supper is a maritime experience near and dear to WildTale’s proprietors, so they put on quite the spread: Classic Seafood Chowder, Steamed PEI Mussels, Farmers Salads, Fresh Steamed Lobster (pre-order 1 pound or 1.5 pound lobster), and choice of dessert. Dinner is $50 for those ordering a 1 pound lobster, and $60 for those “super sizing” their crustacean to 1.5 pounds. You’ll need to make a reservation, so you can pre-order the lobster. Dinner starts at 4 p.m.
