We are privileged to order delicious and authentic Indigenous cuisine through the Songhees cafe, food truck and catering services on a regular basis. They offer high-quality food options like sockeye salmon burgers on traditional bannock buns, Coast Salish bison tacos and fresh house smoked salmon salads (with ingredients from the rooftop garden). The entire culinary team consists of hardworking and dedicated individuals who are always kind, friendly and helpful.
