More of Denver’s best-known restaurants have opened or are opening soon at DIA. Some of them have been waiting years for construction timelines to gradually unfold.

The Bagel Deli
Family-owned for three generations, the Bagel Deli — which operates its five-decade old Jewish diner on East Hampden Avenue — is now open in the Concourse A Marketplace, serving “fresh bagels, stacked sandwiches, and authentic deli fare — perfect for a quick, satisfying meal before your flight or to take on the plane,” the retaurant said.
The Bindery
Originally slated to open in early 2023, The Bindery will be serving its popular dishes — soups, salads, fish and more — near gates 24 and 26 in Concourse A. A spokesperson for the airport said it is now slated to open in May. Its liquor license permit is currently pending with Denver’s excise and license department, which is a good sign.

This popular Asian fusion concept from chef Lon Symensma opened in mid-December in Concourse C near Gate 62. The menu features “signature dishes inspired by Southeast Asia and Western Europe … from savory dim sum offerings to wok-fried creations,” DIA said.
D Bar
Keegan Gerhard was one of Denver’s first star chefs, and although his cafe in Denver’s Uptown neighborhood has closed, he still runs a location in Central Park, specializing in desserts and other sweet treats. This weekend, D Bar’s newest location is scheduled to open near Gate A38 at DIA.
Finch on the Fly
An offshoot of longtime Denver cafe, Olive & Finch, this grab-and-go kiosk opened for business on Jan. 29 in Concourse A, serving “high-quality, healthy and affordable fare” from chef Mary Nguyen. Olive & Finch is in the midst of a big expansion that includes two new locations downtown.
Marczyk Fine Foods
This specialty neighborhood market with two locations in Denver has now expanded into DIA, where it sells a section of grab-and-go items, a curated menu of fresh-made, locally sourced sandwiches, salads and snacks. There is also a full wine and beer bar. Located near Gate C62.
Maria Empanada
Lorena Cantarovici opened her newest Denver restaurant earlier this year on East Colfax Avenue, and she’ll add an airport version of Maria Empanada in May, according to a DIA. Located in Concourse A, near Gate 24, it will serve several versions of the South American specialty.
Ostera Marco
When it opens, possibly as soon as June, Osteria Marco will be the second airport restaurant operation for Denver chef and restaurateur Frank Bonanno. The other is Salt & Grinder, which no longer has a storefront in the city — Bonanno recently replaced it with a new concept called Dumplin’ — but lives on at DIA. Osteria Marco is known for fresh pasta and pizza and will be on the upstairs mezzanine on the B Concourse, near the escalator to the trains.
Teatulia Tea & Coffee Bar
Located in the River North Art District, Teatulia sources its organic teas directly from its garden in Bangladesh. At the airport, “Teatulia will feature its signature tea and coffee lattes, iced teas and wellness blends,” the company said. Look for it near Gate 62 in the C Concourse.

Tocabe, one of the only restaurants in Denver specializing in Native American cuisine, opened for business in DIA’s Terminal A on April 7.
Uncle
Uncle helped put Denver ramen on the map, and now that map will extend into DIA’s flight path as Tommy Lee’s restaurant is slated to begin slinging noodle bowls, beginning in May, near Gate A24.
Williams & Graham
Even if you’re not flying first class, you’ll be able to order some first-class cocktails on Williams & Graham, which is expected to open on April 21, near Gate A38. Bartender Sean Kenyon’s award-winning Denver bar mixes up 60 classic cocktails, some of which will make their way to DIA.
