Their site said that Detroit’s airport has “balanced its restaurant roster to cater to travelers on all schedules.” Many people who travel through Detroit Metro Airport have been tasked with looking for a quick bite or cup of coffee before a flight. Maybe, even a sit-down meal while waiting on a long layover.

Food at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport

When looking for food at the Detroit Metro Airport, dining is split between two terminals. The McNamara Terminal and Warren Cleage Evans Terminal. Specifically noted by the publication are two Michigan-based restaurants. “Those looking for something quick can’t leave without a snack from Leo’s Coney Island (McNamara Terminal) or National Coney Island (Warren Cleage Evans Terminal),” said Food and Wine Magazine.

They suggested that travelers who have more time stop at a local favorite Atwater Brewery or Embers Fire & Ice Lounge. These are both in the Warren Cleage Evans Terminal. The Atwater Brewery, located near Gate D30, is the great spot to grab a beer before your flight. This microbrewery has a bar and restaurant, so you can order a bite to eat with your beer. Embers Fire & Ice Lounge is a lounge-style bar with an extensive list of wines from Michigan vineyards. They also have food available and a collection of  local craft beers.

Michigan’s Detroit Metro Airport earned the number 10 spot out of 11 ranked airports. In addition to Detroit, airports in San Francisco, Atlanta, and Minnesota made the list. See all the airports in the top 10 here.
