Let’s squash the myth: cheap food doesn’t have to mean boring, bland, or bite-sized. If you’re in Vancouver and think eating out on a tight budget means sacrificing flavour or fun, think again. Warehouse is flipping the script with full-on flavour, solid portions, and a menu where everything, and we mean everything, is priced WELL under twenty bucks.

From stacked burgers to boozy favourites, it’s time to see how far $20 can really go. 

Enter: the Warehouse Challenge. 

One food item + one drink. No compromises. No overages. Just straight-up satisfaction.

The Warehouse Vibe: Where Budget Meets Banger Meals 

At Warehouse, we give you a banger meal with amazing drinks, all items under $20. It has become a beloved spot for students, backpackers, partygoers, and after-work crews. The Warehouse vibe invites everyone with a come-as-you-are attitude. We serve you a hearty meal that will not break the bank in an ambiance like no other. 

If you and your gang are on the lookout for a place that feels like Friday even on a Tuesday, then Warehouse is for you. Think graffiti walls, banging playlists, street-style swagger, and food with serious main character energy.
