Crews respond to fire at former restaurant on Main Street

For the second time in less than a year, fire broke out in a former restaurant on Main Street.

Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service crews responded to reports of fire at Boujee Restaurant and Bar, a vacant, single-storey building on the 100 block of Main Street at 5:38 p.m. Sunday. The same building was previously damaged in an October 2025 fire.

Heavy smoke was coming from the building when firefighters arrived on scene. Crews declared the fire under control at 9:40 p.m. No one was found inside the building and no injuries were reported.

The fire is under investigation. No damage estimates were available, but the Winnipeg Fire Paramedic Service stated in a news release Sunday the building sustained significant damage from smoke, fire and water.
