We went to catch a Vancouver Canadians game with one mission in mind: updating my Nat Bailey menu guide from 2024. Of course, while we were there, we had to grab lunch! While I was incredibly tempted by the new Yard Nachos (a massive $44 tray!), I decided my heart and my wallet weren’t quite ready for that level of commitment for just two people.
Instead, we decided to explore the new Triple O’s concession stand.
The "Only at the Nat" Discovery: The Nooner Burger

While scanning the menu, my husband spotted something called the Nooner Burger. A quick Google search confirmed our suspicions: this burger is a unique find available only at Nat Bailey Stadium.
Think of it as the ultimate breakfast-meets-baseball burger. It is loaded with a juicy beef patty, crispy bacon, a fried egg, melted cheese, and that signature Triple O sauce on a perfectly soft bun.
The Nooner Burger combo ($17) comes with hash browns instead of fries. Ours were super crispy, bordering on that almost-burnt stage that gives them a satisfying crunch.

A Little Local History
It feels so right to have Triple O’s back at the stadium for their 75th Anniversary. Did you know that Nat Bailey, the founder of White Spot and Triple O’s, actually started out by selling hot dogs to baseball fans? It is exactly why the stadium was renamed in his honour!
Snacks and Slushies
Because one burger is never quite enough for a long game, we also grabbed a 7" soft pretzel ($7). It was perfectly salty and soft, making it the ultimate stadium snack. To wash it all down, we went for a non-alcoholic frozen lemonade slushie ($7.50), which was so refreshing under the sun.

The Game Day Vibe
We took our treats back to our seats and enjoyed the beautiful, clear spring day. The energy was amazing as the Canadians won 8-5, and we even got to see a home run! Who knew baseball could be this fun?
With tickets being so reasonably priced and the food options expanding, we will definitely be back.
