VANCOUVER, British Columbia – October 20, 2026 – Robert Lawrence Vancouver is highlighting Salmon n’ Bannock, the Indigenous-owned Fairview restaurant that has introduced Vancouver diners to dishes built around traditional ingredients and contemporary techniques.
Founded in 2010 and owned by Inez Cook, a member of the Nuxalk Nation, Salmon n’ Bannock combines house-baked bannock, wild Pacific salmon, bison, berries, and wild rice in a menu designed for gathering and sharing. The restaurant is located at Unit 7, 1128 West Broadway in Vancouver.
The latest Robert Lawrence Vancouver feature examines Salmon n’ Bannock’s place in the city’s restaurant landscape. It explores the restaurant’s approach to ingredient sourcing, its menu of salmon and game dishes, its vegetarian options, and Cook’s work as an Indigenous entrepreneur.
Among the offerings listed on the restaurant’s published menu are a Salmon Sampler, salmon mousse with bannock crackers, wild sockeye over wild rice, 24-hour bison pot roast, elk meatballs, and house-baked bannock with berry jam. Menu items and availability may change.
The restaurant has expanded beyond its original dining room through Salmon n’ Bannock On The Fly at Vancouver International Airport and the development of retail bannock mixes. Cook was also listed as a speaker for the Women in Business panel at the 2026 Cando Conference.
“Salmon n’ Bannock is a compelling example of how a restaurant can give visitors a sense of the place, the ingredients and the people behind the food,” the Robert Lawrence Vancouver editorial profile observes.
The feature draws on the restaurant’s published menu and history, independent reporting, and five archive photographs credited to photographer Ruth Hartnup and used under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 license. The article does not claim a firsthand restaurant visit.
