I ate lunch there one day during my week long stay and ordered the soup of the day. The Tomato soup had one cherry tomato in it and was the most bland soup I have ever eaten. Definitely not worth the $10.50 + Tax & gratuity. Many of my colleagues spoke of similar experiences for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The... More

Not sure if Globe is the name of the lounge as well as the restaurant but both are great. Not cheap by any means but sofas are comfy, menu is interesting and the waiters being out the bottle of wine to show you then pour a VERY generous portion when you order wine by the glass. Classy and done right.... More

We will definitely dine here again. The service and the food were top quality. The servers all seem to pay special attention to their guests which is a pleasant touch.

Our server was meticulous and the food was creatively prepared and presented. A somewhat overpriced wine list but given the location (inside the actual airport complex), reasonable when compared to other lesser establishments in similar locations.

Our server was very informative on wine choices. Food was served hot, great flavours and presentation. Will look forward to a return visit.

I had been for afternoon tea at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver on many occasions so I thought I would give the airport location a try as it is closer to home and apparently the same hotel chain. I have also had tea in many hotels all over the world and this was by far the worst. The service from start... More

We spent a night at the Fairmont Airport in order to facilitate an early flight out the following morning. So we decided to make an evening out of it and try dinner at Globe@YVR. We were very impressed with the outcome and enjoyed the evening - it was a very nice start to our vacation abroad. The food choices at... More

My mother gave my sister and I a LivingSocial coupon for Christmas for Afternoon Tea for Two at the Fairmont at the Vancouver Airport. We had heard good things, and I know that the Fairmont offers tea in many of it's locations so I was excited to try it out, being a bit of an afternoon tea junkie myself. Unfortunately... More

Over the years I've had my share of airport hotels and their "restaurants" but on a layover from London I met up with some friends for dinner here on New Year's Day. Based on my previous experience of restaurants in on-airport hotel locations, and indeed the hotel itself, I was ready for mediocrity, but almost as soon as we were... More

Xmas Eve: We have just come from "dining" at Globe@YVR. Despite the catchy, hip name and the Fairmont brand designation, this place is a major disappointment. The only option tonight was the buffet for $69 plus tax and tip per person. When we arrived, most of the food was half-eaten and unappealing. The "artisan" (artisan??? it was all from Safeway,...
