Such a savior in the mornings, especially for some of these 5:30/6:00a flights on that end of the terminal Seriously though — it’s basically a Zingerman’s cafe so if you know the quality of Zingerman’s you know that this is good stuff. Not really a spot to drink your coffee but who needs it? You gotta go on the plane anyway…

I came in and did not know exactly what I wanted but Monae and Faith was very helpful and kind. I definitely will be coming back because of theme and the store was clean. Service was quick. I’m very professional.

The ladies are so nice, always have a smile and a wonderful greeting. And the coffee is great. I work for United and I always send the passengers and workers there.

Was so happy to find a hot cup of Zingerman’s coffee before my very early morning flight. The two staff working were very kind and helpful.

I can’t wait until 4am everyday to be the first customer at this cafe place in the airport. The employees are great conversational and engaging people. The coffee is always hot and made fresh right in front of every customer. I even do work from this location because of the atmosphere so I sit and enjoy my first couple of sips before heading out to inspect the terminal.

Needed a little morning pick me up so I stopped here for coffee. I ordered the iced mocha with oat milk. The flavor profile of the coffee was mild but flavorful. The mocha addition was perfect not too sweet. The cashier/coffeenista was very polite and friendly. Definitely rate them a 10/10 Well the cup is empty
