Get ready to feast, Bayview has many large dishes that range from authentic style Chinese and Szechuan dishes to more Canadian style Chinese food. The menu is rather vast and will have something for everyone. I never leave hungry.

I've been coming here since I was very young and has never failed to satisfy us. While the dining area is quite small (more of a take-out restaurant), it offers an intimate, small-town feeling. The owner has stressed the importance to his wife that she will not use any ingredients that are not fresh, thus why our food took a little bit longer than most places in Vancouver. When the food comes, you'll know he wasn't lying. Always a great experience here, I always take friends when they come to visit!

Charred Avocado Tacos anyone? Okay, that's my favourite, you may want to indulge in another or perhaps build your own burrito. Busy but inviting, Lunita's overlooks the landing and marina. Maybe one of the most comprehensive drink menus in Gibsons can be found here. They also include a kids menu.

Wholesome and healthy, the Gumboot Cafe offers fresh options like the Wild Salmon Burger to the Buddha Bowl which is vegetarian (can add your choice of meat if you chose to). The plating of dishes and dining room radiate a sense of hippie-chic.

Take out or dine in their rustic style restaurant and patio, the choice is yours. It's hard to choose what to eat with a menu so large and various which is why Lucky's offers spectacular combination plates. The next task is to choose your sides! For those who would like a different option, Lucky's also has a selection of pizzas.

Cafés

Here is a small list of my favourite cafes in Gibson's and Sechelt
Love love love this place. From drinks, quick bites and the friendliness of the staff, everything exceeded my expectations and I think they will exceed yours too. The cafe is well spaced and comfortable with a vibrant yet calm atmosphere. Try the scones, you won't regret it.

A great Sunshine Coast franchise, Wheatberries has by far some of the best muffins (blueberry is a must try) in BC. Some other locations for convenience include the Langdale Ferry Terminal, Upper Gibsons (Gibsons Way).
