We had a party here for my in-laws 40th anniversary. It is a beautiful place in a great location, with that grandness you would expect from a yacht club. They set us up in a separate room and there was a set menu. The meal started with some butternut squash soup. This was very nice. It was followed up with a Caesars salad that was just OK. The main course was salmon with veggies and rice. The salmon was overcooked, but this happens often in groups. My favorite part was the dessert, pecan pie with ice cream. Worth visiting.

*This is a review of the yacht club as a wedding locale only* What better place to feel like a princess for a day than someplace with "Royal" in the title. Oh wait, have some random kid come up to you before you walk down the aisle and tell you that you look like a princess might help too. Hubby and I were lucky enough to get married here going on a few years ago, but I've always wanted to yelp about how special this place was and made for an absolutely perfect day. I know, cliche right? But believe it or not, I'm not one of those people who dreamt about a wedding day and I didn't want to get overly involved with the details. I was the anti-Bridezilla. The person in charge of events at RVYC took care of a lot of the details since I was planning my wedding from California. I've heard about some wedding locations that have a lot of rules (no personal flowers or decorations, etc.) but the people at RVYC were very accommodating. We ended up getting married on the lawn behind the club which is perfect for a small to medium size wedding. We had to rent the chairs ourselves but that was relatively pain free. My bridesmaids and family also decorated the dining room themselves. They have several preset menus to choose from. We ended up doing a midday wedding and had a great assortment of hot and cold dishes. For a yacht club the prices were not ridiculous and at the time we actually thought it was pretty reasonable. The food was all five star. The desserts were absolutely incredible. They are also able to accommodate canapes and beverage service. No matter what the weather wants to do, the huge windows in the dining area provide a gorgeous view of the water, which is perfect for a place where it can potentially rain just about every day of the year. I come from a sailing family so I was lucky enough to be able to have a wedding here. At the time (I don't know what the rules are now) you had to be a member or closely associated to one. If you can snag it, I say by all means look at having your wedding at this yacht club.

Is a beautiful day watching this 6-meter world's from the upper deck at the rvyc The sashimi was very good tuna and salmon served very nicely and they had a really nice bison burger with melted cheese that was really nicely done as a special today Wonderful location It is not open to the public. A private club

We attended a 50th birthday party at the RVYC this past weekend. We were impressed with the view, the service and the food. It was a fantastic venue and everyone one that attended had an amazing time! We also had a family dinner here a couple years ago with our children (7 & 2) and the lower level restaurant was also lovely, tasty food and very family friendly.

Out of all the yacht clubs I've been to, this is definitely top 3. The clubhouse is beautiful, the location unbeatable, great service, good food, and a vibrant sailing community to mingle with. To dine here or use the club facilities, one must have a membership to the club or at a reciprocating club, so many simply can't go, but there is a way - start sailing! The Club maintains the most visited directory of sailors looking to crew for racing. Learn to sail a bit, sign up on the crew bank. Someone from the club will likely contact you asking you to crew on the recreational Wednesday night races, after which there is always a social gathering at the bar/restaurant for the sailors. If you sail on a member's boat, you'll likely be invited into the club for a drink or dinner. So, start sailing! Of course, if you like, you can always apply for membership, and knowing how to sail and having a sponsor for the club racing community won't hurt ;)

Clubhouse from the docks

Came here for our work Christmas dinner party. Beautiful venue with view of the water. Nicely decorated in and out, not over done. The buffet dinner was fabulous! Good selection of seafood and the carvery had prime rib and turkey with all the fixings. The dessert table was just as long as the dinner buffet. Every dessert imaginable was available. Servers were attentive. Wonderful atmosphere.

Great food, great people, great view! A club worth joining if you are a boater of any type.

I've been attending the Christmas buffet with my family, and coming here for special occasions since I was a baby. The food has always been great and the Club itself is gigantic and beautiful. I love the giant wooden spiral staircase. On sunny days you get an amazing view of all the boats, the ocean, and the mountains in the distance. The staff have always been warm, friendly, and attentive. The buffet this year was as great as expected. Although I felt slightly limited because I am a vegetarian and none of the hot dishes had labels, so I avoided anything that wasn't obviously a potato or something. The dessert buffet was to DIE for. I'm so glad I left room.. I piled my dessert plate high and headed back to the table. The chocolate cream pie was amazing, the cheesecake was creamy and wonderful.. one of the best I've ever had, and the eggnog creme brulee was incredible. I've been talking about it for days to anyone who will listen. The Christmas dinner buffet does have a dress code of "informal festive". Basically no jeans or athletic shoes. I was disappointed to see a few attendees ignore this. You are also not permitted to use your cellphone inside.

The view alone is worth five stars!!! We had the sushi and sashimi the toro was amazing!!! The tuna tartar also amazing. If you know a member get them to take you. If the wind is down you may even get to paddle board!

I must say, in the interest of full disclosure that I am not generally a fan of clubs unless they are professional ones. I have been to yacht clubs like this one where guests treated the staff as if they worked exclusively to satisfy their needs (demands?). From my experience here as a guest I have been impressed with the down-to-earth, caring staff and members who didn't seem to be there merely in order to be seen. The food at lunch is tasty. The club sandwich was so big that half each was more than enough. I really liked the random, home made look of the turkey instead of that bleached-white chicken or turkey in razor thin slices that is often used. The lobster bisque was tasty with juicy, not mushy pieces of seafood. The dessert choices could be more creative but that's a minor quibble. If you are lucky enough to be here on a clear day, the view is fantastic and it's a great place to dream. And maybe drink Moet et Chandon as the people sitting next to us were.

The Vancouver Yacht Club was founded in 1903, based on the principles of tradition, volunteerism and a love of yachting. The first Clubhouse floated off the foot of Cardero Street in Coal Harbour. Docks were few, many boats had to anchor close by. The Club's First Annual Ball, in the old Hotel Vancouver, in 1921, came at a time of great optimism and a booming economy for Vancouver. more...
