YVR welcomes Romer’s Fresh Kitchen & Bar

On August 20th at YVR, we celebrated the grand opening of Romer’s Fresh Kitchen & Bar in our U.S. Departures area. The event featured menu tastings and remarks from Mary Point, Director of Indigenous Relations at YVR, Jim Romer, Romer’s founder and chef, Benedict Ma, Director of Passenger Retail Experience at YVR, and Rich Wilson, SSP Canada’s Vice President of Brands and Concepts, highlighting this exciting new addition to the airport. 

During the grand opening, travellers could enjoy a special treat: complimentary donuts with the purchase of a Magic Mushroom Burger and fries—perfect for a quick bite or a tasty snack before their flight. 

The menu features hand-pressed natural beef burgers, fresh salads and bowls, and hearty breakfasts, all made to order. By sourcing certified natural beef from Semlin Valley Ranch in Cache Creek, B.C., and partnering with Cioffi’s Meat Market & Deli in Burnaby, Romer’s highlights the best of local cuisine.  

This collaboration reflects YVR’s commitment to supporting B.C. businesses and showcasing the region’s rich culinary identity, offering travellers an authentic West Coast taste while enhancing their airport experience. 

Inspired by the west coast lifestyle of keeping things fresh, local and fun, visit Romer’s before your next flight for notable favourites including the Magic Mushroom Burger, Truffle Fries and Drunken Donuts. 

Located post-security near E74 in the U.S. Departures area, Romer’s Fresh Kitchen & Bar, operated by SSP Canada, is a noteworthy addition to your travel journey, whether you’re stopping by for a quick grab-and-go meal or a full-service dining experience. This 13th SSP Canada location at YVR welcomes guests daily from 5:30 AM to 11 PM, serving great food, and an honest drink, all with a smile with an added dose of fun.
