At Butchers Block BBQ & Catering, we're passionate about serving up the most mouth-watering, juicy, and tender barbecue meats in the heart of Burnaby Heights. As a family-owned business, we've been perfecting our "backyard-style barbecue" for over a decade, and we're proud to have been serving the residents of Burnaby, Vancouver, and the Lower Mainland for over 13 years.
Our story began in 2005 when Mary and Calvin Levesque opened the doors to our restaurant, with Mary at the front-of-house and Calvin in the kitchen. In 2020, Angus Wong and Mostafa Nassar joined the team, bringing with them a shared passion for delicious food and exceptional customer service. Today, we're honored to have received numerous accolades and awards, including "Barbecue sauce that will knock your taste buds off your tongue" from The Province, "The ribs fall off the bone. The pulled pork could not have been juicier" from Burnaby Now, and "Winner of Best Barbecue" from Vancouver Magazine.

At Butchers Block BBQ & Catering, we believe that good barbecue is hard to find, which is why we've dedicated ourselves to perfecting our craft.
