Delaware North unveils first phase of new dining concepts at Boise Airport

BOISE, IDAHO (August 21, 2025) – Delaware North, a global leader in hospitality and entertainment, has officially launched the first phase of its reimagined food and beverage program at Boise Airport (BOI), introducing a dynamic mix of local favorites designed to reflect the city’s vibrant culture and culinary spirit.

The program builds on the company’s decadelong partnership with the airport and aims to elevate the traveler experience through thoughtful, community-rooted concepts.

“We are immensely proud of our accomplishments in creating an experiential foodservice program that embodies the unique spirit of Boise,” said Scott Socha, group president of Delaware North Travel, Parks and Resorts and Australia divisions. “For the past decade, our commitment to quality and variety has defined our presence in Boise, with our offerings reflecting the city’s vibrant outdoors, thriving art scene and rich culinary traditions.”

The program was developed in close collaboration with the City of Boise and local partners.

“One of the things we’re most excited about with our new concessions is how local they are. Passengers will see restaurants and retail products at the airport that they also see throughout Boise,” said Boise Airport Director Rebecca Hupp. “And we’re not just replacing existing shops and restaurants, we’re adding new ones. Passenger traffic at the Boise Airport has increased by more than 80% over the past 10 years and we’ve added food, beverage and retail capacity to keep up with the growth.”

Featured Delaware North concepts in Phase 1 include:

  • Treefort Outpost Food + Drink: A full-service restaurant inspired by the iconic Treefort Music Fest, offering breakfast, lunch and light dinner fare alongside a full bar. The venue celebrates Boise’s creative community and serves as a cultural gateway for travelers.

“Treefort has always been about highlighting Boise’s vibrant music and creative culture,” said Eric Gilbert, co-founder of Treefort Music Fest. “Treefort Outpost allows us to extend that spirit to the Boise Airport – so travelers can feel the energy of our city the minute they arrive or right before they head out.”

  • Turas Flights and Bites: A wine bar created exclusively for BOI, Turas (which means “journey” in Irish Gaelige) tells the story of the region’s unique wineries. Travelers can enjoy wine from Telaya Wine Co. and other local wineries, plus Basque-inspired small plates.

Earl and Carrie Sullivan, owners of Telaya Wine Co. said: “We couldn’t be happier to be licensing a local name to the airport. The focus on supporting local is a true Idaho value, and the airport and Delaware North are showing that they want to focus on our small, family-owned business and give back to Idaho by opening Turas Flights and Bites.”

  • The STIL Scoops, Pints & Pours: The STIL stands for “The Sweetest Things in Life.” Offering small-batch ice cream from Idaho milk and cream, infusing add-ins and flavors inspired by the local landscape and lifestyle. The STIL offers a selection of signature creations, and travelers can pair their favorite scoop with a curated selection of local beers and wines at the bar.

“We’re thrilled at the opportunity to have The STIL represented at the Boise Airport alongside other great Boise companies,” Kasey Allen, founder and owner of The STIL said. “Delaware North has put together a great collection of local options for travelers to enjoy, and we can’t wait to serve The Sweetest Things In Life to those coming, going and passing through Boise!”

  • Waffle Me Up: A Boise-born favorite known for its sweet and savory waffle creations, now offering travelers a taste of local comfort food on the go.
  • The Idaho Tap House: A celebration of Idaho’s booming craft beer scene, this concept features a rotating selection of local brews and pub-style fare in a relaxed, welcoming setting.

Additional concepts, including Blue Sky Bagels, Form + Function, Up and Away Cafe, Starbucks, Pizza Hut, Wendy’s and Protein Bar & Kitchen, in addition to the reimagined Bardenay restaurant, are slated to open in subsequent phases.
