My daughter and I had never enjoyed Bannock before and after our visit to the Songhees Food Truck, we will be doing so on a regular basis!!👍👍 The bread was so tasty we bought several buns to take home. The Bison and Salmon were both delicious and the fries are to die for - the best I have had in Victoria. The staff were very friendly and efficient to complete our wonderful Introduction!

I had the salmon burger and clam/salmon chowder from the Songhees Food Truck, and it was amazing! The salmon burger was fresh and perfectly grilled, with a light, flavorful sauce and crisp veggies on a soft, toasted bun. It had the perfect balance of textures and seasoning, really highlighting the natural taste of the salmon. The clam/salmon chowder was a highlight too—rich and creamy, packed with tender seafood and just the right amount of seasoning. It’s the perfect comforting meal, especially on a cool day. The portions were generous, and the flavors were spot on. If you're looking for a delicious, local taste of Vancouver Island, I highly recommend giving this food truck a try!

Very good experience, we had salads with salmon it was a perfect balance between the different flavors and the seasoning. The bannock bites with lemon and poppy seeds are also delicious. The prices are also very reasonable so don't hesitate to visit them to taste!

I brought my daughter here for lunch and we loved the chowder and salmon burger. The bannock is very spongy in texture and will definitely fill you up. The home made sauces were hand- licking good! The sweet carrot cake bannock were to die for as well!

You come for the burgers (on bannock buns) and stay for the creative selection of bannock bites! Have never had a disappointing meal here. Bit more pricey than your average food truck, but worth the splurge! You can also buy bannock buns to go home- great for making breakfast sandwiches the next day.

What a superb Cobb salad, unique combination of ingredients and outstanding complimentary flavors! Wow! Also the best Bison Chili cheese fries ever! Perfect crispiness of fries too. Generous portions. Wonderful, happy service too and comfortable seating area. We'll be back. Love the Songhees Food Truck! Yummy!

We visited September 2021. Absolutely delicious salmon bannock burger with sweet and tangy Saskatoon berry sauce and pickled onions. Salmon was moist and flavourful. Bison burger was meaty and tasty, though a little dry. Bannock was super chewy and not too oily. Side salads were fresh and well dressed with a delicious vinegarette. Garlic and truffle fries were tasty and cheesy. Highly recommended for a quick bite if you are in the area!

Insanely tasty. Best burger in town.

Today was such a great experience. Road our bikes from downtown on the E&N out to the Songhees food truck. Gorgeous spring day. Amazing salmon chowder with bannock & a bison bannock burger. Both were absolutely delicious. Guys in the truck were super cool. Great area with picnic tables to sit in the sun and enjoy our meal. We will be back and plan to bring friends. What a fabulous experience.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Had the Salmon burger. Salmon was so tender and flavorful. So good I came back the next day to get something for my partner and I. They had a special Hot open faced Turkey Sandwich on special and gave it a try. They were generous with the amount of turkey and the gravy is really good. The bannock bun made it really taste like a full Thanksgiving meal. I was also impressed with how tasty the fries were. 10/10

Worth the trip! We drove across town to try out their legendary bannock burgers, chowder and crispy fish. We finished it all with nothing left to spare. Highly recommend the cod burger, and chowder. The crispy fish was cooked to perfection and my normally picky son ate it all up! My daughter said the Songwich was great and she would happily go back for more. Service was friendly and prompt. The dining area was charming outdoor picnic tables with a nice shelter to keep the sun and rain off. A great place to go with the kids.

We ordered a bison burger and a salmon burger. Both were awesome and the fries were great too. Of the 2, I think I was more pleasantly surprised by the Bison burger that I stole a bite from from my husband, but I dont regret my choice of the salmon burger either. Most memorable for me was how good their bannock bread works as a burger bun. It is just a little more chewy than burger buns, making them hold their shape better. But they were still very soft and easy to bite into. We also appreciate that they had 2 picnic tables with umbrellas set up on a rainy day and provided us with good quality napkins and wet wipes :) The price means its not something I can eat every day, but will definitely go back when I crave a good burger.
