El Faro started in 2018 on Pender Island and began as a dream to create a 100% gluten free experience for everyone! It was a success and grew from a taqueria into a successful restaurant and catering business. In 2020 we took our gluten free flour formula and tried it out and it was a wonderful success! Creating scones so incredible you couldn't tell the difference between gluten scones and gluten free scones! We decided to add this element to our restaurant and it became a success on Pender Island and began expanding beyond.
In 2021 we moved El Faro back to Parksville and changed the name to El Faro Market. Today we are a 100% gluten free market and cafe that focuses on health, creating relationships with our customers and making delicious food to tantalize your taste buds! Each month we continue to grow and expand our offerings and shortly we will be adding our Gluten Free Multigrain Flour blend to the line up. Our customers feel more like family to us and we love being here to serve everyone!
We look forward to meeting more amazing people in the years to come!We're Restocking -

INGREDIENTS
Filtered water, water kefir culture, concentrate organic mango juice, organic mango puree, raw organic cane sugar, raw organic coconut sugar
About Kirk's Premium Sparkling Kefir
In 2019 Kirk was living a healthy lifestyle, active and eating a balanced diet. What was troubling was that after every meal bloating would occur, energy levels were low, and an ongoing low mood was present. The search began for a non-medical, natural solution to this and recalling a few years previous, when a friend gave Kirk some dairy kefir and the immediate relief he felt from this drink, he set out on a mission to make his own.
Kirk's is loved by children and adults because of the smooth simple flavors, health benefits, and no vinegar bite like many competing beverage brands. Kirk's Premium Probioitic beverages are infused with just the right amount of forced carbonation providing a pop-like fizz & organic juices set them apart from many of the flat/non-carbonated varieties. What's not to love?
