All three were located in the public departures area and had been serving travellers for years.</p><p><a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/tag/montreal-trudeau-airport" target="_blank">YUL</a> announced the closures on its social media channels over the weekend, writing, "Thanks for the early coffees, comforting chicken and last-minute burgers!" while teasing that new food options will take their place soon.</p><div class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="4c007ca14b3daabc6fa5ab0e76c7ae67"><div class="fb-post" data-href="https://www.facebook.com/yulaeroport/posts/pfbid0hid21AoayxM3ekww2TWAAcEUBj6rokPLLcoCDijQ8gXUp5RApUWDqN5CJ7LNqdo1l"></div></div> <p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>For now, the airport hasn't revealed what will replace them, so food choices near the departure zone may be a bit more limited in the short term. The choice to remove the longstanding eateries may be part of <a href="https://www.mtl.org/en/experience/transformation-airport-yul?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank">YUL's broader redevelopment</a> project that will bring a new VIP lounge, a reconfigured drop-off area, and a $10-billion plan to completely transform YUL by 2035.</p><p>Other new features coming between now and 2028 include:</p><ul><li>A new REM light rail station (YUL-Aéroport-Montréal-Trudeau) set to open in 2027</li><li>A full overhaul of the parking system, including the demolition of the existing multilevel garage</li><li>Road network updates to accommodate the growing number of passengers</li><li>The start of southern terminal expansion work</li></ul><p>As the airport itself put it recently: "It might get a little messy before it gets beautiful. But trust us, it's gonna look amazing when it's done!"</p><p>It's also worth noting that this marks another bump in the road for St-Hubert, which was <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/montreal-restaurants-mapq-fines-july-2025" target="_blank">hit with $1,500 in MAPAQ fines in July</a> over food safety violations at its rue Sainte-Catherine E location.</p><p><em>Love this?
