After a brief hiatus, White Spot is landing back at YVR with a new space that blends contemporary aesthetics with a nod to its B.C. roots. The restaurant features earthy tones of rich greens, warm reds and copper accents, mixed with wood and stone textures, creating a welcoming atmosphere for guests. The location offers a full-service restaurant, lounge, and bar, open daily from 4:00 AM to midnight—perfect to satisfy the cravings of early-morning and late-night travellers alike.
"We are excited to bring White Spot back to YVR, with a renewed fresh look and unique menu designed for the YVR community," said Trent Carroll, President of White Spot. "We're grateful for the opportunity provided by YVR and the involvement of our valued partner, ECG Ventures II, whose shared vision and expertise have played a key role in getting us to opening day. We can't wait to welcome more travellers from B.C. and beyond through our doors to experience the great taste and hospitality White Spot is known for."
The newest White Spot marks the brand's second airport location—the other located at Kelowna International Airport—and the second restaurant collaboration between White Spot and ECG Ventures II, following the opening of Triple O's at YVR early last year.
"ECG Ventures II is thrilled to be part of White Spot landing back at YVR," added Gerry Inglis, CEO of ECG Ventures II. "Our long-standing partnership with the YVR team has paved the way for this exciting new partnership with White Spot. With a shared commitment to hospitality excellence and innovation, we are pleased to bring a unique menu and exceptional dining experience to travellers. This restaurant is more than just a place to eat, it's a reflection of our dedication to quality and service. We look forward to welcoming guests from all over and offering them a taste of an iconic B.C. institution."
