ARC Restaurant offers a true taste of the Pacific Northwest, where the vibrant flavors of the region are showcased in every dish. Located at Fairmont Waterfront, ARC pairs an approachable, upscale dining experience with panoramic views of Vancouver’s inner harbour and the Coastal Mountains. The menu celebrates local, seasonal ingredients — many harvested from the hotel’s own rooftop garden and apiary — and is crafted with a Province to Plate philosophy. From shareable plates to signature cocktails and an award-winning brunch, ARC is a social dining destination where the best of the West Coast comes together in a relaxed yet refined atmosphere.
