Gather.
Feast. Linger.

A cozy little corner of the neighbourhood where the wine is poured generously and the seasons set the menu.

Harvest Moon is a seasonal bistro & wine bar on Commercial Drive — comfort food cooked from what's good right now, in a room that feels like coming home.

Food that tastes
like where you live

We cook the way you'd want to be cooked for — slowly, generously, and with whatever the season is handing us.

Harvest Moon started as a tiny supper club run out of a borrowed kitchen. A decade on, we're still chasing the same thing: a room where neighbours become regulars and a plate of braised short rib makes a Tuesday feel like an occasion. The menu shifts with the markets, the wine list leans natural and a little wild, and the bread is always warm.

Sourced within the valley

We buy direct from twelve nearby farms, a fisher in Steveston, and a baker two doors down.

A neighbourhood table

Forty-two seats, one long communal bench, and a wine bar built for lingering past last call.

Nothing goes to waste

Trim becomes stock, bruised fruit becomes the cocktail shrub, and the scraps feed the farm's pigs.

"The short rib hash ruined every other brunch for me. We've made it our Sunday ritual — they know our table and our coffee order."

"Came for a glass of wine, stayed three hours. The staff treat you like you've been coming for years, even the first time. That's rare."

"We booked the back room for my mum's 60th. They built a whole menu around her favourites and made her cry happy tears. Unforgettable."
