RICHMOND, B.C. — Lift Bar & Grill. Has opened at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). Inspired by the original location in downtown Vancouver, Lift offers a selection of seasonal cuisine with a focus on local seafood offerings.
“YVR provides the first and last impression of British Columbia, so we are delighted to welcome Lift Bar & Grill to bring our passengers a unique West Coast dining experience,” says Scott Norris, VP, Commercial Development, Vancouver Airport Authority. “We take great pride in delivering exceptional customer experiences and having quality food-and-beverage offerings play a huge role in that — we look forward to hearing our passengers’ feedback.”
Centrally located in the international terminal, the restaurant is wrapped around the airport’s iconic aquarium and draws on a coastal waters theme, which includes interior detailing with tones of warm oak, steel blue and charcoal greys. The menu features Ocean Wise-recommended seafood.
