Branch on Bowen
Branch on Bowen is a community gathering place established in 2016 that began as a taco shop and has grown into a multi-season destination, serving handmade corn-tortilla tacos with locally sourced BC ingredients — grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, smoked salmon, and vegan sweet potato — alongside Earnest Ice Cream and seasonal ramen and dumplings. The counter-service format and individually priced menu items make it a practical stop for a quick, satisfying meal. It also houses the Narwhal gift shop, adding a browsing option to the visit.
