Honey Salt

39 Smithe Street
Vancouver, BC

Due to a mix-up with their on-site parking, the JW Marriott management graciously offered us a $30 hotel credit as compensation. Since we had no plans on checking out their spa, W and I decided to use it on our breakfast the next morning. That gave us the perfect opportunity to try out Honey Salt!


The restaurant inside the hotel served farm-to-table cuisine in a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere.


It was bright and airy with lots of natural light shining in. I especially love the green colour of the cushions contrasting with the various wood tones throughout the room!


We made our way down to the restaurant before we checked out of our room so we ordered from their small breakfast menu. Had I known that their brunch/lunch menu was more extensive and captivating I would have came 1 hour later ~__~

Illy drip coffee ($3)

Honey Salt also served coffee by Illy, same as the coffee offered in the hotel rooms.

 Potato Latkes ($10) - apple sauce and double thick sour cream

I had a hard time deciding what to eat despite the small breakfast menu. I ended up with an order of the potato latkes. The plate came with 3 crispy potato cakes, each the size of a plum. I liked the apple sauce and potato pairing! There's just something about that sweet and savoury combo!

 English Breakfast ($21) - eggs any style, bangers, bacon, baked beans, potatoes, tomato & toast

W went for "the works", that being the English Breakfast. Everything was cooked well and yummy. The potato fritter-like cake was similar to my potato latkes except it had grated carrots mixed in with the crispy potato shreds.

Not pictured was a single lonely piece of multi-grain toast that came with the English Breakfast. I found it funny that there was just 1 measly piece of bread yet it was served with an ample portion of fruit preserves and whipped butter!

Overall, the atmosphere, the presentation of their dishes and the food itself were executed quite well. Honey Salt is a nice place to relax and enjoy and lazy weekend with family and friends.
