The Place for a Night Out - Yew Restaurant and Bar

Perched on the treetop level in Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver, Yew restaurant + bar is a chic, fine dining place for gathering with a few friends or a night out. Their specialties include a wine list of over 300 wines and fresh seafood. For the meat-lovers, their bone-in strip steak with garlic & herb butter, or roasted venison with brown butter & sage jus are must-tries.

Currently they are offering several promotions including Wine Down Sundays (bottles of wine are 50% off), Foxy Fridays (wear pink on Fridays after 2:30pm to receive an appetizer on the house, or enjoy a selection of pink colored drinks for $9), and March promotion Fresh From Yew (special menu featuring shellfish and icewine).




Yew will be getting even sweeter with Chef Bruno Feldeisen joining their pastry team. Feldeisen specializes in French cooking techniques after apprenticing in one of France’s most renowned chocolate shops, Les Palets d’Or, at the age of16. He then joined the Four Seasons Hotel in New York under the guidance of Executive Chef Susan Weaver for three years. Now as pastry chef for Four Season Vancouver, Feldeisen is excited to return back to the company where he has always felt a true sense of belonging. “I am so fortunate to arrive into such an established restaurant as YEW and I look forward to bringing even more fun into the Pastry department!” comments Feldeisen.



For large gatherings or small parties, Yew has a beautiful glass-enclosed wine room with sky-lit dining for up to 10 guests, or a semi-private dining section, accommodating up to 45 seated guests or 65 people for a standup reception.
