5. Squatters Airport Pub: Concourse A
If you’ve enjoyed Squatters near downtown Salt Lake City for their drinks or food you’ll love this casual and fast stop at the Salt Lake City Airport. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Squatters serves menu favorites including house made soups, salads, and sandwiches. Squatters also usually has a basket of goodies near the register including rice krispy treats from Salt Lake City’s local Hatch Family Chocolates (aka the best rice krispy treat I have had in my life)!

Three reasons you need to check out Cafe Rio at the Salt Lake City Airport: 1) It’s unquestionably one of the faster options in the entire airport, 2) Cafe Rio is a Utah favorite (and a Utah original!) and serves some of the best fast casual food in the state, and 3) this is one of the few places you can enjoy Cafe Rio BREAKFAST! I often get to the airport a little early if I’m flying out in the morning just so I can enjoy a smothered breakfast burrito. Picture the same great tortilla, meat, and beans that you love with potatoes and eggs. Served until 10:30 a.m. daily. They usually have fresh squeezed OJ too so why the heck not?

How did I not know High West Distillery was in the airport?!
It’s totally hidden!! Great spot if you have the time and need a good bite 🙂
Thanks for the tips! The Rio was fantastic.
You are so welcome! Glad that you liked it.
Can you tell me which restaurant makes the mac and cheese pictured at the start of this post? To quote Liz Lemon, “I want to go to there.” Thank you!
Yes! It’s High West- enjoy! 🙂
Thank you!
