New Vancouver restaurant is a cafe by day and wine bar by night

Apr 1 2026, 8:14 pm

Vancouver’s latest eatery, Touski, is preparing to open its doors — and it’ll be operating as two different concepts depending on when you visit.

The restaurant describes itself as “a day-to-night neighbourhood bistro rooted in European influence.”

“By day, Touski functions as a neighbourhood cafĂ© — a “coffee bar to wine bar” concept — serving thoughtfully sourced coffee, paired with light fare,” shared the cafe in an email.

But by night, the space transforms into a share-plate bistro, offering a rotating weekly menu built around French and British classics that are “reimagined with playful, generous touches and hyper-local ingredients.” Exact menu offerings have yet to be shared.

“Transparency is at the heart of Touski — from coffee beans to wine to produce, the team emphasizes close relationships with local suppliers, grounding each dish in trust, community, and care,” wrote the restaurant on its website.

During soft open, the cafe will operate from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. from Tuesday to Saturday, with it anticipating to operate seven days a week soon. As for the bistro, it’ll operate Tuesday to Saturday from 5 p.m. to late as well, also sharing that it will soon be offering service seven days a week.

Currently, the space has softly opened its cafe offerings, while dinner service will softly launch starting April 7.
