Commonly found in the Seef area at The Courtyard, the food they serve ranges from classic food truck fare such as burgers and fries, to the more innovative edamame tabbouleh. They even offer a few delicious desserts to curb your sweet tooth attacks.

As you’re driving around Bahrain, you might have come across a classic yellow school bus painted black, with a large Gastro St. painted on its sides. What’s cool is you can choose to eat your food in their pop-up tables and chairs outdoors, or dine inside the bus!

Gastro Street serves a variety of starters, burgers, hot dogs, fries and creative dessert-y drinks like cake-shakes!

The back of the bus is closed off and is where all the delicious cooking happens. The rest of the bus is furnished with booths giving a retro diner feel to it.
