I had the opportunity to have a taste of the new summer menu recently. Located in the Jericho Sailing Centre, the Galley Patio & Grill boasts one of the nicest patio views in the city and I’ve been coming here for many years. The restaurant has actually been around since 1990, known for burgers, nachos and beer, this tasting was an opening of the eyes for many of us.

This year, Chef Karl Gregg has come on board and put his stamp on the menu with new creations like the Mazatlan-inspired Chilerio Pulled Pork Sandwich, the Southern Texas Brisket Sandwich, two different Po Boy sandwiches made with R&B Brewing beer batter, and for lighter appetites, a Wild Sockeye Salmon Salad.

Some of the standout beachside favourites include Wild Sockeye Salmon Salad, Kettle Chips & Queso, the Nachos platter, Sockeye Salmon Roll.

Along with its famous patio, The Galley also offers flexible interior spaces for up to 120 people that are a great choice for small to medium-sized meetings, receptions and parties.

Visit them on a sunny day or a rainy day at 1300 Discovery St., Vancouver and on twitter @GalleyPatio
