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.

    One of the best meals and ambiences I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend this restaurant. Not a cookie cutter chain restaurant.

    Un vrai restaurant et une ambiance cossue. Un peu cher, mais la qualité compense les prix élevés.

    Spent 3 hours dining at this lovely, quiet, warm and inviting restaurant. Food was beautifully presented and very tasty. Somewhat pricey for the portions provided Despite, the higher cost we experience here, I would return for a special occasion.

    The food is exceptional and the service is amazingly. The servers were very attentive. Order the Winter dinner package. The steak and lam chops were divine. Still dreaming about the crème brûlée and gingerbread cheesecake. Also the table side Caesar salad is a must. It’s entertaining and you will learn some tricks. Old Surrey Restaurant is Surrey’s gem.
