Ferris’s has many menu items revered by locals as classics. Comfort food like chicken penne soup, classic burgers and fries, and poutine sit alongside more sophisticated fare such as oysters, seafood pastas, reasonably priced cocktails, and locally crafted beers. With a charming patio in the back for al fresco summer dining and a cozy brick interior for the rainy season, it’s always a good time of year to head to Ferris’. And considering the quality and quantity of food provided, even a cheap chicken like Pete has to agree that Ferris’s downstairs is a bargain.

Some of the most eclectic 24-hour menu selections in Vancouver. Mexican torta sandwiches, Fritou fried chicken, hamburgers, all-day breakfast, Chinese food, and Vietnamese noodle soup just to name a few (with a clientele as varied as the menu offerings). “Duck and cover” cold war décor with pre-fabricated furniture indestructible enough to survive nuclear Armageddon add to the charm. What more can we say except you might need some Rolaids after a visit to Duffin’s, but who cares when the food is as good and invigorating as these fine offerings.
