USA. MarketPlace Logan has opened the latest set of local favourite restaurants and stores at Boston Logan International Airport. The company manages the concessions programme at the airport and is an affiliate of Boston-based New England Development.
Upscale gastropub Monument Tavern has opened in Terminal B, and is based on the original restaurant in Boston’s Charlestown neighbourhood.
Mija Cantina & Tequila Bar, which operates in the city’s Faneuil Hall Marketplace, also now has an airport location, in Terminal C.
Boston-based athletic brand New Balance has opened its first airport retail store in the same terminal.
“We couldn’t be happier to kick off 2020 with this latest group of iconic restaurants and retail concepts to our travellers,” said MarketPlace Development President Paul McGinn.
“The progress we have made for the Boston Logan concessions programme, alongside our partners at Massport, has been very well received. There is a lot of excitement around the diverse mix of both local and national offerings we have brought to Boston Logan over the past two years which is terrific to hear.”
MarketPlace Logan opened four restaurants at the end of 2019. These were Davio’s Northern Italian Steakhouse in Terminal C; Trade in Terminal B; Monica’s Mercato in Terminal E; and Temazcal Tequila Cantina in Terminal B.
More openings are expected in the coming weeks, including Santarpio’s, Alta Strada and Not Your Average Joe’s.
