B-C Ferries is asking for the public's help in deciding what to do with its former buffet spaces on its Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay route.

It says an online survey will be open for three weeks and, using that feedback, it hopes to transform the space this fall.

The company says it was initially forced to suspend the Pacific Buffet in March 2020 due to health safety regulations relating to the spread of COVID-19.

B-C Ferries C-E-O Nicolas Jimenez says the decision to close the buffet service comes as a result of recent changes to the food industry, including fewer suppliers, supply-chain unreliability, new attitudes about food waste and safety, as well as record-high food costs.
