Parkside Cafe

Tasty food, very friendly service. More of an Indian bistro rather than a cafe. The sandwiches are grilled in a press, very saucy and with their own special dips, and are excellent - try the pineapple coleslaw, better than expected. Goat curry was rich, spicy medium hot, for a white guy, and savoury. The Butter chicken was sweet, rich, and a bit spicy. We were pleasantly surprised. Limited indoor seating but we were there on a gorgeous day so the park next door was ideal.

My favourite place for food in Squamish. The inside of the cafe is clean and well decorated, and you are welcomed by friendly staff. Their food, especially the butter chicken samosas are the best. The food is fresh cooked and still hot when you get it, and are perfectly made. Not just the food, but the drinks are good too, I recommend the Mango Lassi. Every time someone asks what they should eat in Squamish, I bring them here.

Was excited to try Parkside Cafe but in the end we were quite disappointed. Ordered goat curry, butter chicken, and 2 samosas. Though the curries tasted okay but the portion sizes were very disappointing. $16 for 2 pieces of goat and naan that looks like it was purchased pre-made from a grocery store was a let down. If you go to any of the other restaurants in town for Indian food you will get 3x the portion for the same price and better quality. The butter chicken was similarly lacking in quantity — 3 small pieces of chicken. The samosas were flat, soggy, and sad at $2.25 each. For about the same price at other Indian restaurants in town you get much larger samosas that are freshly made and tastier. We will stick with the other places from now on. Edit: The owner reached out and spoke with my wife to try to apologize and ensure us that our concerns were taken seriously. I changed this review from 2 stars to 3 to reflect the good customer service we received. That being said, my opinions and review stand.

Definitely better than I expected for a tiny “cafe”. We ate on the picnic benches on a nice summer’s day. It was tasty!Recommended dishesButter Naan, Spinach and Cheese, Mango Lassi

Service 10/10, Food 10/10, Vibe 10/10! Amazing food tried the sandwich and the razle both were great my brother had the milkshake and loved it, my fam had the tea chai and loved that too! Thanks Japneet K. For the amazing service!

Ordered Chickpea masala with Naan $12.95 and Chicken tikka roll $13.95. Chickpea masala with Naan tasted like the ready to eat stuff from supermarkets instant curries available in packets to heat and eat. The chickpea masala portion size was miniscule. Naan didn't look or taste like Indian naan roti and felt like very thin and small crispy bread from Superstore or Walmart. Chicken tikka roll was full of veggies and very few shreds of chicken that were difficult to find. Highly disappointed with taste and quantity. Was expecting some authentic Indian food cooked in the restaurant for this price.

visited with my friends and had strawberry shakes, must say great quality food with vast options in menu.. 100% recommended

Really tasty Vietnamese Iced Coffee! I can't remember the name of the sandwich, but it had chicken and some sort of curry mustard? - It was super good. The owner is very friendly. Wouldn't recommend for a sit down meal, but it's great for grab and go!

Extremely disappointed. We ordered 2 lassis and a samosa. The samosa was just a tiny frozen samosa you get from the supermarket. Soon as I bit into it, it was oozing water and was still cold in the middle. The lassi was not even close to what it should be. Tasted foul and was a weird peach colour. Not to mention the samosa was nearly $3 and the lassi was $5. We had to throw it out as it was so inedible. The service was friendly. Wish the food was up to par.
