23 BC Restaurants worth a detour, Daily Hive by Marco Ovies, June 20, 2026

The weather is starting to get warmer, which means it’s officially road trip season. Time to stock up on your favourite snacks, pack the cooler with some soda, and venture off somewhere fun.
For us at Dished, planning a road trip involves finding the best restaurants along the way for a bite (or planning a trip just to visit a specific restaurant in general).
But which restaurants are worth driving hours on end for? Well, we have some suggestions.
The Bear, The Fish, The Root & The Berry – This restaurant features a menu inspired by the chaptik story passed down through the generations of First Nations people of the Okanagan. Here, the menu is split into four sections inspired by the four food chiefs: Skimxist Black Bear (chief of animals, representing self-sacrifice, leadership, giving), Ntytikxw Chinook Salmon (water creatures, perseverance, hard work). Speetlum Bitterroot (plants below the ground, relationships to the land), and Seeya Saskatoon Berry (plants above the ground, growth, strength, community).
