Roost Express, an Ottawa-based chicken restaurant, is joining the Ottawa Titans’ concession lineup at Ottawa Stadium, located at 300 Coventry Road.
The addition of Roost Express comes as the team adds new local vendors to enhance the stadium experience, alongside Junior & The Kid Wood Fire Barbecue from Rockland and Craig’s Cookies from Toronto, which opened its first Ottawa location in ByWard Market last summer, according to the Ottawa Business Journal. The changes coincide with a broader effort to expand point-of-sale systems and transition the stadium to a cashless environment.
Roost Express previously served Titans fans through its food truck, and its stadium presence will bring signature chicken dishes to fans attending games this season. The team emphasizes partnerships with local businesses rather than operating its own food outlets, reinforcing a community-focused approach.
Ottawa Stadium, over 30 years old, hosts 51 games each summer, and the Titans have experienced double-digit attendance growth each season since the team’s founding. The addition of local concessions is intended to make game days more enjoyable for families and encourage fans to visit for both baseball and food.
The 2026 season opens with optimism on May 8, 2026, fueled by renewed interest in baseball following the Toronto Blue Jays’ 2025 World Series appearance. The Titans hope to sell out the home opener on May 8, potentially the highest-attended baseball game in Ottawa since the Ottawa Lynx sold out in September 2002.
Alongside fan-focused improvements, the Titans are engaging local businesses, including a “business day” on June 10, 2026, to network at the ballpark. The team is also actively seeking a quality partner for stadium naming rights, but has not finalized an agreement.
