Stay For The Day
And Enjoy Some
Good Food

The Vancouver Aquarium is a non-profit organization: our earned revenues, such as those earned from our café, directly support our education, conservation and research initiatives. It has been one of our top priorities to reduce the waste generated by our food establishments, including plastic utensils, plates, non-biodegradable packaging, and leftover food. Five years ago, the Aquarium started using fully compostable serving products, and last year we added a public composting station for food waste. Vancouver Aquarium members also receive a 20 percent discount on every purchase.

Upstream Cafe

Café 2013 Spring Menu

Today 95 percent of the dishes and utensils used to serve food at our café are fully biodegradable and compostable. This includes: plates; bowls made from sugar cane; cutlery; cold drink cups; salad containers made from corn; and coffee cups and napkins made from paper. All new products used at our café must be both compostable and made from renewable resources
