Silhouette Design Architecture Crafts Winning Designs for Delaware North’s Boise Airport Expansion

Delaware North, the global hospitality and entertainment company, has been selected to expand its food & beverage footprint at Boise Airport (BOI) with 10 new offerings encompassing a mix of Idaho-based and national brands. The captivating new spaces were designed by Chicago-based Silhouette Design Architecture, a long-time Delaware North partner.

Delaware North tasked Silhouette with imbuing the new concepts with a unique sense of place, incorporating elements that celebrate Idaho’s natural beauty and cultural heritage. Rooting the designs in local culture, Silhouette’s aim was to create memorable experiential dining and hospitality offerings for BOI travelers.

Among the winning concepts are:

• Treefort Food + Drink – A full-service restaurant inspired by the locally owned and operated Treefort Music Fest and Treefort Music Hall.

• Flying M To Go – Serving locally roasted coffee, a variety of breakfast options and a robust selection of freshly made sandwiches.

• Bardenay – A proven passenger favorite and the nation’s first restaurant to be granted a distillery license, completely reimagined by Silhouette and Delaware North to create a concept that’s bold, bespoke and authentically Boise.

• The STIL Scoops, Pints & Pours – The quality-driven brand crafts small-batch ice cream from Idaho milk and cream, infusing add-ins and flavors inspired by the local landscape and lifestyle.

• Waffle Me Up – This family-owned Boise breakfast and lunch destination specializes in handcrafted Belgian-style liège waffles, sure to draw in travelers and locals.

• Blue Sky Bagels – Blue Sky Bagels is a local chain specializing in handcrafted bagels, cream cheese spreads and simple café fare.

• Flying M Coffee – Flying M Coffee and Market will reflect the streetside experience and effortlessly meet the needs of travelers. Breakfast sandwiches, overnight oats, avocado toast and loaded burritos will delight the morning crowd, while hot and cold sandwiches, salads, dessert and options for kids will satisfy all preferences across dayparts.

• The Idaho Taphouse – The Idaho Tap House will be a full-service restaurant and bar delivering a rotating selection of local craft brewers’ best — from Woodland Empire Ale Craft’s juiciest IPA to White Dog Brewing’s crispest pilsner.

• Form + Function – A sleek, inviting third-wave coffee shop offering an elevated ambience along with extraordinary coffee.

• Turas Flights and Bites by Telaya Wine Co. – Turas Flights & Bites, a wine bar created exclusively for BOI, will tell the story of Boise’s unique urban wineries. “Turas” means journey in Irish Gaelige. Turas Flights & Bites will take travelers on a Boise-inspired journey with wine from Telaya Wine Co. and other local wineries, plus Basque-inspired small plates.
