Lunch Meet brings outdoor dining to downtown streets

Vancouverites from all walks of life came together last Thursday to share a meal at the first Lunch Meet event.

Hosted by the VPSN (in partnership with Space2Place and Viva Vancouver), Lunch Meet transformed the 300-block of Abbott Street into an urban cafeteria, offering a long-table dining experience and a range of exciting culinary choices.

Many participants took advantage of the lunch specials offered by local businesses and food carts, while others chose to pack their own lunches. Local DJ Rocky Fisher provided musical entertainment throughout the communal outdoor meal.

Lunch Meet is taking place every Thursday in July from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Come out and join us on Abbott Street on July 12 to break bread with colleagues or make some new friends.
