It’s a great location and we’ve made many new friends, from visitors to Vancouver, to regular customers and fans from the nearby businesses. There’s even one regular – and by regular, we mean EVERY DAY, who comes all the way from Gastown to eat lunch with Feastro. We love stories like that!

If you are visiting and have an open schedule, outside of the noon hour rush is recommended. From about 11:30 to 1:30 we’ve become a magnet for office workers wanting to eat healthy and not sacrifice on variety or pay a fortune to eat well. The rest of the time we’re serving up great food from one of the Vancouver street food scene’s largest menus in a food truck.

We still use the same fresh greens and produce from Henry Reed Farm on BC’s Sunshine Coast. They’re picked every morning at first light and brought over from the Coast via BC Ferries and one of our tremendously dedicated sous chefs. You literally won’t get a fresher meal on the go anywhere in the city. We still smoke our own salmon, pulled pork, chicken and other specials, and EVERYTHING is made on the truck, with a fanatical approach to quality and value.

Please come by and say hello, and try a new dish today!

FEASTRO EPISODE, EAT St., Food Network If you were in Davis Bay last fall visiting Feastro in our 2010 location, you may have visited on the day the film crew from The Food Network came to shoot a segment with us for their upcoming series that launched in April called “Eat Street”. In addition to interviewing Steve and Paul, the crew talked with representatives from the local tourism industry: Sunshine Coast Tourism, the Sunshine Coast Bed & Breakfast Cottage Owners Association, and even the restaurant manager at Painted Boat Resort, proving that this kind of ‘food tourism’ could benefit the entire Sunshine Coast.

Since the day we were filmed there have been a lot of changes – namely, our new location for 2011 at W. Cordova & Thurlow across from the Olympic Torch, where you can get great Feastro food seven days a week!

This show brings Food Truck Culture to the masses, and the Sunshine Coast’s very own Feastro – The Rolling Bistro made the cut from a casting call continent-wide.

Feastro is a taco truck and mobile catering service located on British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast. We offer the most innovative take-out food, using primarily locally sourced ingredients to create a truly unique menu that changes daily. Many of our customers come every day – for the Fanny Bay Oysters, seafood or pulled pork tacos, Bonzai Prawns, or even just a fresh watermelon lemonade. Come on by, try us out, or watch this page and Twitter to find out the day’s fresh sheet!

Three grey whales have been cruising up and down the beach of Davis Bay and around Mission Point for the last five days, attracting throngs of sightseers and jamming up the Highway from our corner right up to the start of the hill into Selma Park. They are coming so close to shore they appear to be beaching themselves, but they’re always back in deeper water to prove they’re really all right.

Did you know that Feastro was one of 8 Sunshine Coast businesses featured in the Vancouver Sun’s Life section on Saturday, June 26? The article was written by popular writer Randy Shore, through his Green Man Blog. We’ve had a lot of new customers come out to try our ‘haute cuisine on the beach’ – thanks so much to Randy for including us in his article on the search for the perfect fish & chips.

Keep checking back on our site and Facebook… there may be some exciting news about Feastro in the next month or so!
