Halal poutine shop moving into former Vancouver taco shop space

The spot on the West End has been empty for nearly two years

Mr Poutin, a new restaurant, is filling in the empty space on Vancouver's Denman Street left behind by La Catrina, a taco shop.

After spending nearly two years empty, a space on Denman Street is being filled by poutine.

Signs are up for Mr. Poutin, a 100 per cent Halal poutine place, at 1187 Denman St. An Instagram account describes it as a 100 per cent halal restaurant specializing in poutine but also carrying burgers, sandwiches and ice cream.

Online and at the location, signs indicate Mr. Poutin is "coming soon," though it appears the location is still undergoing some renovations.

The space near English Bay Beach has been empty for a while.

La Catrina Tacos was last in the storefront. It opened in the spring of 2016 and closed in the fall of 2023.
