Austin-Bergstrom soars on short list of U.S. airports with best food
[ad_1]
Certainly no one drives to the airport with the sole intention of having breakfast, lunch or dinner. But if you’re looking for more than just snacks while waiting for a flight (or stranded at the airport due to a spate of flight cancellations, for example), it’s nice to hang out at an airport that delivers a flavourful menu.
Austin travelers are lucky in this regard. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport tops a new list of the top five US airports with the best food.
The Discoverer, a travel website, calls Austin-Bergstrom a “not surprising choice” for this list. The airport offers great food with a tasty side of live music. The website gives special mention to two Austin favorites: Tacodeli and Salt Lick BBQ.
In total, Austin Airport has more than 30 places to eat, most of which have strong local ties. Aside from Tacodeli and Salt Lick BBQ, locally affiliated places include Salvation Pizza, Amy’s Ice Creams, The Peached Tortilla, and Flyrite.
While many of the airport’s restaurants have a distinctly local flavor, all of the restaurants are operated by three outside companies: HMSHost, Paradies Lagardère, and Delaware North.
Other airports that have landed on The Discoverer’s list include Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Portland (Oregon) International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport, and John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City.
