Downtown Maple Ridge's grown-up dinner: a two-level contemporary bistro with a seasonal, locally sourced menu and a patio.
224 Street, downtown Maple Ridge
More infoChameleon is the answer to wanting a proper dinner in Maple Ridge without driving into Vancouver for it. It is an independent contemporary bistro on the 224 Street core, two levels plus an outdoor patio, with a seasonal menu built around local producers and a room that manages elegant and relaxed at the same time. Regulars keep it for anniversaries and date nights, which tells you what it is good at. Pair it with a walk through Memorial Peace Park a block away, and downtown Maple Ridge suddenly builds a full evening.
Reserve ahead and ask for the patio in summer or a corner upstairs otherwise. Order across the seasonal menu, lean on whatever is local that week, and give it a good hour and a half. When you step out onto 224 Street you are a block from Memorial Peace Park for a slow walk after.
