eatFISH.ca (formerly Fresh Ideas Start Here) is dropping anchor in Steveston this summer with a new seasonal pop-up launching this weekend, July 19 and 20, 2025, at Steveston Fisherman’s Wharf. Operated out of the boat Pacific Promise, the new pop-up will feature fresh seafood, eatFISH.ca’s ready-to-eat collection, and special collaborations. Guests can check-out the pop-up every Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., weather permitting, until September 28, 2025.
To celebrate the launch of the pop-up, eatFISH.ca is offering a special on whole wild pink salmon, $5 each, available this weekend only, with 1,000 pounds available.
“We had such a great response from customers during spot prawn season at our False Creek pop-up, so when the opportunity came up to bring EatFish.ca to the iconic Steveston Fisherman’s Wharf, we had to say yes,” says Jenice Yu, co-owner of eatFISH.ca. “We’re excited to share that same spirit with the Steveston community – offering not only fresh, local seafood, but also chef-driven creations and products from local makers. We feel extra lucky to do this right by the water, where the journey from ocean to table begins.”
The pop-up menu will change each weekend, but stalwart items will include eatFISH.ca executive chef Welbert Choi’s popular uni pasta sauce, black cod candy, seafood congee, and shoyu ikura. Fresh seafood will rotate depending on local catch and availability.
There will be future collaborations with local chefs and producers, including Holy Duck Chili Oil, Ducky’s Dumps, and Mẹ’s Marketplace.
Next month will also be the start of uni (sea urchin) season, eatFISH.ca’s most popular wild catch.
“We just love sharing local seafood with the community,” adds Yu. “We’re excited to meet friends and new customers in Steveston and introduce them to eatFISH.ca. It’s going to be a great summer on the docks!”
During the pop-up, eatFISH.ca will continue to offer free next-day delivery with $99+ purchase across Metro Vancouver from Monday to Friday through its online shop, as well as pick-up at the plant on Mitchell Island.
