Fraport USA unveils three new eateries at Nashville International Airport

US. Fraport USA has opened three new food & beverage outlets at Nashville International Airport (BNA) this month. Two local brands – Tennessee Brew Works and Tootsies World Famous Orchid Lounge – have commenced trading, along with international café, Green Beans Coffee Co.

The 550 sq ft offering from Nashville brewery, Tennessee Brew Works, serves its own craft beer favourites in the A/B rotunda across from the South Terminal’s main Food Court. Food-wise, there are ‘grab and go’ items, which can be consumed in the eatery’s own seating area, with views of multiple TV screens.

Tennessee Brew Works is serving craft beers, including its self-produced State Park Blonde and Walk The Lime

Meanwhile, the newly-renovated Tootsies World Famous Orchid Lounge – a historic Nashville bar and restaurant concept – occupies 3,116 sq ft in Concourse C with live music and a full menu and bar offering, including the brand’s well-known BBQ pork sandwich.

Finally, the 2,990 sq ft Green Beans Coffee Co. is located near the South Terminal exit, offering coffees and freshly baked pastries. There is also a programme for live music, which can be enjoyed from several new seating areas.

The first Tootsies World Famous Orchid Lounge opened in Nashville 60 years ago and is now present in the city’s airport

Fraport said its 1-800-ITS-FAIR pricing guarantee is in place for the three new eateries, which ensures customers pay the same amount for their purchases at the airport shops and restaurants as they would at similar sites outside the airport.

Fraport Tennessee Vice President Matt Jennings said: “We are committed to this programme and serving BNA travellers well throughout the development. These new arrivals point to more good things to come for passengers, visitors, and employees alike at the airport.”

Locally-operated, Green Beans Coffee Co. marked its opening with live music, balloons, and treats for Music City travellers
