Food and drink at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park

All the dining is inside the park. Once you are through the gate, that is where you eat. The Cliff House Restaurant takes no reservations and works first come, first served, which means the queue is longest exactly when you are hungriest, at the middle of a summer afternoon. You are allowed to bring small snacks and water in with you, and I would. Plan the timing around it.

The Cliff House and the queue

First come, first served, with no reservations taken, so the sensible move is to eat early or late rather than at one o’clock with everyone else. If you are on a three-hour parking block, a long lunch queue is what pushes you into a second one.

Bringing your own

Small snacks and water are fine to carry in. On a family visit that is the easiest saving available, and it matters more than people think once you have already handed over CAD $76.95 per adult at the gate — the full sums are on the cost page.

If you are on a tour

Food and drink are excluded from the seven-hour Grouse Mountain day and from the small-group tour, which does include bottled water. The private tour includes bottled water too. In practice that means lunch is on you wherever you eat it, so factor it in when you compare the six options.

Frequently asked questions

Is there food at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park?

Yes, and all of the dining is inside the park. The Cliff House Restaurant is the main sit-down option and takes no reservations, so it runs first come, first served. Eating early or late avoids the worst of the queue.

Can I bring my own food and water into the park?

Small snacks and water are allowed. With adult admission at CAD $76.95, a packed snack is the simplest saving on a family visit.

Is lunch included on the Capilano tours?

No. Food and drink are excluded from the seven-hour Grouse Mountain tour and from the small-group tour, although the small-group and private options include bottled water. Compare what each combo covers before you book.
