Why Go

Union Road in Cole Bay is developing its own food identity — La Chingona Taqueria, Come y Calla food truck, and now Trey Wah add Chinese cooking to the corridor's growing reputation. Trey Wah serves the Cole Bay community and anyone navigating this busy commercial strip with Chinese dishes that provide a familiar and satisfying option alongside the Mexican and fusion spots that have put Union Road on the map.

The Experience

Union Road is a working commercial corridor lined with shipping companies, auto parts stores, and service businesses — the kind of street where people eat between tasks rather than as a destination. Trey Wah fits this practical context with Chinese food that serves the lunch and dinner crowds who work in the Cole Bay area. Chinese restaurants on commercial corridors tend to specialize in generous, affordable meals that sustain through a workday: fried rice, noodle dishes, stir-fries with proteins, and soups that warm despite the tropical heat. The location near West Tech Shipping and service businesses confirms a clientele that values speed, portion size, and consistency. For visitors, Trey Wah represents another facet of Union Road's surprisingly diverse food scene — walk the road and you can eat Mexican, Caribbean-Mexican fusion, and Chinese within a few blocks.

What to Try

Fried rice is the universal Chinese-Caribbean standard — every Chinese restaurant puts its own stamp on it. Noodle dishes and stir-fries with whatever protein you prefer are reliable choices at any Chinese restaurant on this island.

Insider Tip

Union Road in Cole Bay is not on the tourist map, which means prices and portions reflect the local economy. Lunch is the primary service window for the working crowd. If you are exploring Cole Bay's food corridor, Trey Wah adds Chinese to the Mexican options further up the road.
