The Captain’s Boil was inspired by Cajun seafood boil, where freshly caught seafood is boiled and served right away to retain its freshness and tenderness. The Captain’s Boil took this idea further by adding aromatic Asian spices to enhance the natural taste of our ingredients. By removing all the unnecessary hassle of table settings and cutlery, we make sure that the food is ready-to-eat — from sea to table. 

We make sure that our guests “feast like a pirate! dine like a captain”. All of our restaurants focus on two simple yet key criteria: 

(1) the quality of our food and 
(2) the overall dining experience.

While the success of The Captain’s Boil is exceptional, it is also unsurprising. People love the idea of “feast like a pirate! dine like a captain”. We focus on the overall dining experience and great food. The playfulness of our brand coupled with our casual dining culture makes for an exciting dining (and marketing) experience. It is no wonder we’ve been trending on social media. 

In less than one year, The Captain’s Boil has expanded from nine to sixteen locations across Canada. Because of our innovative marketing strategies, our restaurants are extremely popular with Millennials. You could say that our branding has helped us sail from coast to coast. Not to mention our restaurants are easy to launch with a standardized operation and comprehensive training, which means smooth sailing the moment you board our ship!

Achieve success with Millennials, the demographic with the most disposable income! 

We owe our success to the strong community ties and partnerships we have with our customers, stakeholders, and local entrepreneurs. Our franchisees built our Cajun seafood boil brand to become a household name in Canada’s top three cities: Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal. Strong relationships have given us an edge in this competitive industry. 

As the franchisor, our goal is to lead our ship with vision, competence, and integrity. We will help you navigate your operations so that your business will not only be sustainable but also cutting edge. The Captain’s Boil franchise is nimble, adaptable, and ready for the ever changing dynamic of our target markets. Our successful digital branding strategy provides both cost-effective growth and a strong community presence. 

I thank you in advance for your interest in The Captain’s Boil and look forward to the future opportunities we can create together.

We ship our ingredients directly from the sea; then we cook and serve them right away. Our customers enjoy nothing but freshness the moment their food arrives at the table. But that’s not all. We also incorporate the bold flavours of Asian spices in our cooking process to bring out the essence of our ingredients.

Great food brings loved ones together but it can sometimes be a chore to prepare (and then clean up after). Many people don’t have the time or energy to put together the extraordinary experience of fancy family meals. The Captain’s Boil takes out all the hard work for our guests and presents them with nothing but great food to be enjoyed with friends and family. 

The “hands-on” experience of eating without cutlery enhances the playful aspect of the dining experience. Our guests interact with their food and are reminded that food can be fun. Don’t worry, though — we provide pirate-themed bibs so that your clothes don’t need to be in on the fun as well!
