Food, coffee trucks gaining traction on Bellarine

A POPULAR Bellarine coffee van will set up shop in a St Leonards kiosk later this year, while more vendors are being sought to fill other Bellarine coast hot spots this summer.

Miss Buzz will operate out of Sirens Boathouse and Kiosk in coming months, regional coastal manager Bellarine Bayside confirmed this week.

“We will be taking over the beloved Sirens Boathouse and Kiosk at St Leonards pier,” Miss Buzz stated on its Instagram page.

“We will be serving up Inglewood Coffee and some tasty treats along with grazing boxes… bring on summer.”

More details on an official opening are set to be announced in the lead-up to summer. Early indications are that the new-look kiosk will open in November.

Meanwhile, the coast manager is also seeking expressions of interests from hospitality businesses to park a food truck at Portarlington Pier.

“We have a highly sought-after vacancy available for licensed mobile food and beverage vendors to apply for a one-year permit to operate a food truck at the Portarlington Pier Vendor Area,” Bellarine Bayside stated.

“Thousands of overnight visitors and day-trippers are attracted to the northern Bellarine Peninsula each year, providing an excellent business opportunity for mobile food and beverage vendors.”

EOI forms are available at Bellarine Bayside’s website.
