Cottage Deli Soup and Sandwich

Love this quaint soup and sandwich shop. Never disappointed. Great to see these small businesses that have been around for 25 years with the original owners.

What a hidden treasure. We stumbled upon this small local eatery. No frills, and I don't mean that in a negative way. Seating outside and some inside. Totally reminded my wife and I of our grandparents growing up. What a charming place. Walk in an place your order to the gentleman behind the counter. Pay at the register. The bring the food to your table. My wife and I both had the tuna melt with lentil soup. Just like growing up at grandmas. Delicious homemade fare. Y'all can't go wrong. Great prices and a good hearty meal.
A must stop for those who wish to experience the that old fashioned hospitality. Definitely recommend.

Wonderful food! Amazing service! Beautiful location! Everything about this visit was wonderful. I hope I get to come back to Vancouver just so I can go again.

wow. such an adorable little place that always feels like home. beautiful views and delicious food -- perfect little stop for a stroll through gastown.

Up some stairs and hidden back in you'll find an affordable little diner with a great view. Service is great, very helpful and friendly. Soups and sandwiches are all good. Recommend.

All the soup and sandwich specials are good. Great service and atmosphere! This place is a hidden gem - I can't believe it isn't much busier.

I have been coming here since 2012. Great view, nice price, and fresh food. My favorite is cucumber cream cheese avocado sandwich. The owner is very friendly, one time he asked me not to leave my stroller outside so it wouldn't get stolen.

Head upstairs and check out the million dollar view! Absolutely loved Amazing views of the Burrard inlet, the convention centre sails, and the North Shore Mountains.
The place and the food are very low key, very old world and simple, but fresh and good in all of my experiences here. And the owner Peter was always friendly.

A HIDDEN GEM IN GASTOWN...
the three of us each had something different
My wife lintel soup, her brother Reuben with chicken noodles and I had clam chowder all were fantastic and would order any of them again

Ordered the daily special, which included a Roast Beef Melt and a Minestrone Soup. The sandwich, oddly enough, was in a hamburger bun and kind of reminded me of an Arby's Roast Beef Sandwich, in that regard. Overall though, the quality was much better than an Arby's concoction in that the beef tasted very fresh and had just the right balance of mustard and cheese! The soup was also a star player here in that it had a crazy amount of vegetables, noodles and beans in it!

Servers are very friendly so that's definitely a plus as well.

Quite a cute little place with a nice view in the upstairs dining area that overlooks the water. But hidden! If it weren't for the sign they had out by the sidewalks, I don't think we would have discovered the place. I ordered the vegetarian sandwhich and the veggies were all very fresh. Good sandwhich overall. My boyfriend got the Reuben sandwhich which was a good portion-filling but the clam chowder soup was average.
