Seafood boil restaurants are having a moment in Metro Vancouver right now, and soon The Captain's Boil will open their Coquitlam location.

This is the fourth Metro Vancouver location for the Toronto-based seafood boil chain, which previously launched two Vancouver locations (Cambie and 16th and Kingsway) and one in Richmond.
The Captain's Boil specializes in a choose-your-own-adventure style of Cajun seafood, done best in groups, and with your sleeves rolled up. Customers choose their "catch" (crawfish, lobster, crab, shrimp, and so on), their sauce (Cajun, Garlic, Lemon Pepper, or the house blend of all three), and the heat level.
This is the kind of feast that is served in bags and then dumped on your table top for you to dig into.
The Coquitlam location of The Captain's Boil looks to be sailing towards opening this Friday, November 17, but keep an eye on their Facebook and Instagram for updates.
The Captain's Boil
Address: 1111 Ponderosa Street, Coquitlam
