Food
With the MSP being one of the busiest airports in the region, and this airport catering to a large geographic region, it makes sense that it receives tens of millions of visitors each year.
In fact, even during the flight ban that was imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, the airport still welcomed nearly 15 million passengers that year alone!
Such impressive numbers mean that this airport has to cater to each and every one, in all aspects! And the food aspect is one that is taken seriously by the MSP, as a good pre-flight meal can make or break your airport experience.
For this reason and more, the MSP has a wide range of restaurants and cafes ranging for your commonly known fast-food chains, to dine-in restaurants that offer more ethnic and diverse cuisines!
There are even many convenience stores where you can get yourself a quick prepackaged snack that you can take onboard your next flight.
