POURHOUSE || New Menus Featuring Signature Burgers, Cocktails, Happy Hour and Weekend Brunch
2020 greatly changed how and where we enjoy our meals.
With the start of a new year, we are seeing lots of restaurants tailoring their menus to create an authentic extension of their brand’s dining experience in their customers’ homes with takeout menus. Many have also taken the opportunity to revamp the dine-in ambiance and environment.
Pourhouse, located in the heart of historic Gastown, will be unveiling a new dine-in and to-go menu of their signature burgers, cocktails, happy hour, and weekend brunch. The new burger-forward menu will be is launching on January 18th at 5 PM.
The new concept was envisioned and built upon the iconic Pourhouse Burger, with its 30-day, dry-aged steak patty cooked to a perfect medium and topped with cheddar, pork belly, and caramelized onion. The new menu will offer an array of delicious new burger creations, classic steaks and starters, as well as snacks and salads for daily lunch and dinner service.
Driven by the culinary powerhouse team of Executive Chef Alessandro Vianello, Culinary Director Alex Tung, and Chef de Cuisine Jason Saruya, the new menu offers two ‘smash-style’ creations and includes highlights like The Queen (brisket & chuck steak patty, aged cheddar, mayo, shredduce, tomato jam, peppered bacon, onion ring, sesame seed bun), and the Crispy Portabella (tomato jam, shredduce, pickled onion, Swiss cheese, truffle mayo, sesame seed bun).
All burgers and steaks are served à la carte, and guests are able to customize their selections via gourmet toppings and sides that go beyond classic Kennebec fries to include truffle tots, sautéed mushrooms, chili-garlic broccolini, onion rings, twice-baked potato and more.
Under the creative direction of Bar Manager Adam Domet, the beverage program offers a refreshed catalog of classic and contemporary cocktails along with an expansive wine list including the addition of sparkling and red wines by the glass that further complement the burger menu.
Thinking of dropping by after work? A daily Happy Hour menu also serves up drink and food specials such as the Dirty Portabella or Cheeseburger, Caramelized Onion Dip, and Buttermilk Fried Chicken from 3 to 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. to close.
“The Pourhouse Burger has become something of a legend and with the renewed focus on takeout-friendly fare over the past year, it was the perfect time to expand upon the elements that have made Pourhouse a Vancouver favourite.”
Beginning Saturday, January 23, Pourhouse will also introduce a weekend brunch menu featuring daytime dishes such as the Brunch Burger, the Burger Benny, the Short Stack with caramelized banana, maple syrup and vanilla whip, and Mimosa and Caesar features available from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. in addition to the full lunch and dinner menu.
