About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
The Old Surrey Restaurant is Surrey’s best well- kept secret. Built in 1918, it was the residence of Lou Jack and his household until it was converted into a restaurant in 1974.

The interior has a crisp, clean aesthetic that is enhanced by hardwood floors and the enlarged photos of historic Surrey that adorn the walls. There are five distinct dining areas on the top floor (including a cozy library) and a banquet facility downstairs. The cuisine is French with a splash of West Coast flare. A treat for new and seasoned guests alike are the signature dishes that are prepared and flambeed tableside.

The restaurant has been family-owned and operated since 1974 and in 1984 the restaurant has entered into a partnership with the family farm in Ryder Lake overlooking Chilliwack from the nearby mountains. The Old Surrey is well known for its free-range lamb and veal allowing customers to enjoy fresh organic ingredients.

            A lovely restaurant where we so enjoyed a quiet dinner on our anniversary. The service was great and the food well prepared (we especially loved the ice cream prepared table side!) We will definitely return

            This is the place. Look no further. The ambience is cozy and unpretentious. I bring my well behaved children here for special occasions, about twice a year and it’s our favourite place. The food is always delicious, everything on the menu is good. If you’ve never had duck, this is the place to eat it. The duck is crispy, juicy and flavourful, never greasy. Try it for sure. They change up the menu just enough to keep it interesting, and maintain the staples we love: 3 items prepared table side…. Chateaubriand Caesar salad Nitro ice cream (if it’s being offered) Cherries Jubilee… On noise levels: Earlier in the evening is quieter and as the night progresses noise levels are still moderate. Sometimes lively if there’s a celebration, but the restaurant has quiet corners and knows how to arrange seatings accordingly if you prefer intimate and quieter. The wine list is a good selection, by the glass, full bottle and small/half bottles as well. The cocktail selection is fun and yummy, the staff are well trained so service is well executed. Definitely a great place for a special occasion, but the food is so good, any night is a good night to dine here.

            Recommend to always take advantage of Old Surrey’s specials on throughout the year. A definite value for money well spent on either specials for 3 or 4 course meals. Always excellent service by the staff.
