Officers Row in Vancouver is home to a restaurant gem – Eatery at the Grant House. This historic home was first built in 1849 and served as a residence for U.S. generals, but today it’s a full restaurant and bar that offers well-rounded menus that follow the season.

The kitchen is run by Executive Chef Capers Ogletree, whose experience and knowledge of curating local, farm-to-table cuisine has been invaluable to the restaurant’s growth. Eatery at the Grant House employees about 30 team members on average and they create everything in-house, including pickling items and smoking the meat. The space is also popular for event rentals, including meetings and weddings.

“Each week we learn what the small collection of farms we select from are bearing; we have lengthy conversation with our group of small fishermen as to what is biting; we connect with our herdsmen as to the availability and choice selections from their beef, pork, poultry or lamb,” Owner Scott Flury said. “All these efforts and decisions … (enables) us to deliver the truest of flavor and freshness to guests.”
