A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
The little food vans at the end of the beach road
Gastrobus x Bosko’s vintage vans make Bantham’s car park a handy stop for coffee, beach lunches and seasonal treats.
These are the vans to look for when the road reaches Bantham’s beach car park. Gastrobus and Bosko share this outdoor stop, with coffee, bakes and substantial handheld lunches. The wider seasonal line-up includes the pink Treats van and Gastropizza. It is an easy place to pause between the car and the sand; check which vans are serving on your day.
