Just extremely bad food. I wouldn’t eat it for free cause it was that bad 😔 but we paid for all 80$.
Now I we’re waiting for our flight and am not sure if it’s better to throw everything up 🤮

The bartender who served me was extremely rude and unprofessional. His attitude was unpleasant from the start. Because of his behavior, I did not leave a tip. Service matters, and this experience was very disappointing.

Food is gonna be overpriced. Not the worst place to hang out before a flight. The turkey burger was good.

Avoid at all cost! Really really offensive waiters. You can't even get a menu without giving them your phone number, email address, and credit card number and joining some sort of ridiculous club?!?

Rude staff, overpriced and low quality food, they treat you as a burden or as if they are giving you food for free not that you are paying them

II would give them zero stars if I could. The staff was rude and obnoxious, especially the Hispanic guy at the bar. He was incredibly rude and obnoxious. I don’t know where they found that old man, but I wouldn’t want to eat off his hands. The place was a dump and the staff fit right in.

Had a few pints whilst waiting for my flight, came to $28 so I was okay with that, the beer was actually good for an airport, however when I went to pay at the end the barman demanded at least a $5 dollar tip I said no naturally, and then he went on say UK people are tight with their money, just

God the bless the servers that have to deliver this trash food, $25 for a “steak” burger and comes with only chips or cole slaw. It was the smallest frozen patty burger you could find. What a joke. passengers should boycott these places for their criminality. Thanks but never again.

Worst service ever on an airport. Guy was not friendly, let us switch seats and only allowed us to order if we at least buy something alcoholic? Doesn’t make any sense. All other bad reviews here confirm our experience.

Ridiculously overpriced and disappointing. I paid $22 for a tiny Margarita flatbread that was clearly frozen and reheated, not even fresh. For what they charge, you’d expect at least decent quality or portion size, but this was neither. I get that it’s an airport, but this place takes advantage of travelers. Just a few steps further, there are much better spots for half the price. Save your money and skip this one.

We never write reviews; this is a public service. Unexpectedly awful even though we knew it was a one star airport restaurant. Hamburger was dark gray spongy texture with an off taste reminiscent of organ meat. Stale chips on the side. Pizza compared unfavorably to mid70s school lunches, inexplicably oval, spare and tasteless sauce, and massive quantity of gooey white cheese. Lesson learned: read all reviews even when you think you have sufficiently low expectations, because it can indeed be worse. Wings reviewer below: we are with you.

Honestly, home to the worst wings I have ever had in my life, intuition tells me they were microwaved.

Service was prompt and honest. When asked how my meal was, after responding ‘not good’ the barman replied ‘yeah, food here is not the best’, I didn’t have the heart to tell him a negroni does not normally contain a quarter of an orange. I will never return here.

Do yourself a favour, don’t eat here. or Alternatively do, and then come to back me up in the reviews. Assuming you’re reading this from the airport, I hope you have a safe flight.
