Best places to eat at Brazilian airports before boarding

Discover quality dining options at Brazilian airports, from full meals to quick snacks for your summer vacation.

Traveling during the holidays does not mean sacrificing a good meal. For those passing through Brazil’s main airports at the end of the year, brands from Grupo 3T Brasil offer excellent alternatives for breakfast, lunch, or dinner before boarding.

A Saideira: complete meal with comfort

With a relaxed atmosphere and versatile menu, A Saideira offers a complete experience. The menu includes appetizers, salads, meats, pasta, individual pizzas, and sandwiches. The concept caters to both those with time to sit and those needing a quick meal, always in a welcoming environment that helps passengers relax before their flight.

The brand has seven locations distributed across strategic airports. It operates in Guarulhos, Congonhas, Rio International (RIOgaleão), Florianópolis, Fortaleza, and Vitória, providing convenience for passengers across the country.

Empanadas y Tal: speed without compromising taste

Perfect for those seeking speed without sacrificing flavor, Empanadas y Tal focuses on a streamlined menu of savory and sweet empanadas. The brand offers practical, democratic, and easy-to-consume meals, specially designed for the fast-paced airport environment. It combines quick service with consistent culinary standards.

With six units, the brand operates in Guarulhos, RIOgaleão, Fortaleza, and Florianópolis, serving transit passengers who prioritize convenience.

O Pasquim Bar e Prosa: traditional botequim vibe

Another option at RIOgaleão is O Pasquim Bar e Prosa, a restaurant that brings the relaxed atmosphere of traditional Brazilian bars to the airport. It offers appetizers, classic dishes, and beverages, functioning as a meeting point and pause spot before departure.

The location features a kids’ space, making it a practical and comfortable option for families traveling with children seeking a peaceful break before boarding.

Understanding the traveler’s pace

According to Humberto Munhoz, partner at 3T Brasil, considering food options at airports means understanding the traveler’s pace. “Those in transit want to eat well, but also need convenience. The idea is to offer everything from a complete meal to a quick option, always with quality and identity”, he states.
