VANCOUVER — Central Restaurants, created by the team behind CRAFT Beer Market will be opening its newest location, Central Bentall. Nestled in the heart of downtown Vancouver in Bentall Tower II, Central will open to the public on March 6.

“Central is all about creating unforgettable memories with people you love in a welcoming, fun and approachable environment,” says PJ L’Heureux, president and co-founder of Central Restaurants. “Inspired by legends who embraced life with originality and joy, we aim to bring that same energy to every guest that walks through our doors. Vancouver is such a dynamic, diverse city, and we couldn’t be more excited to show Vancouver what good trouble is all about.”
Spanning 3,500 sq. ft., Central Bentall, designed by Canadian interior design firm Way of Normal, will feature a 360-degree bar, greenery, natural lighting and contemporary decor. In the warmer months, guests can enjoy the restaurant’s 2,000 sq. ft. patio space.
Standout menu items include Lemon Peppered Calamari, fresh Lemongrass Chicken Noodle Bowl. Exclusive dishes on the Vancouver menu include the Togarashi Tuna Tataki and the Pressed Ahi Tuna Sushi. Dishes can be paired with signature beverages and cocktails, such as the pineapple jalapeno margarita and strawberry and lychee popping soda.
