Let’s face it, there’s nothing more exciting than seeing a tray loaded with charcuterie heading to your table, especially when wine is involved. Whether you’re looking for some tasty wine pairings, a customizable board, or a tempting spread of cheese, meat, crackers, and fruit – you can’t go wrong at one of these spots. Here are 8 of the best places to feast on charcuterie in Vancouver.

We’re starting off this list with a spot that’s known for having customizable charcuterie spreads – so you don’t have to pick just one combination off of the menu. Guests can build their own boards, choosing from a variety of meats and cheeses (including plant-based options). Each board comes with pickles, nuts, olives, and warm bread, so you’ll have all the makings of a charcuterie feast.
And if you come during happy hour (3 to 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close daily), you’ll get a free snack with every beverage purchase.

Next up, we come to one of the best spots for hand-crafted charcuterie around, and a great pick for group picnics. Tawnshiâs Indigenous-inspired boards and boxes offer a beautiful Charcuterie Board ($190) and an equally stunning Gluten-Free Charcuterie Board ($195), both of which have sizing options and can be made pescatarian or vegetarian. The standard âsmallâ size can feed five to eight people, though!
A smaller Charcuterie Gift Box can be purchased for $55, and baked bannock and cookies are available for $26 per box.
