Navigating Sea-Tac — especially during the holiday season — is stressful enough, but trying to figure out the food scene + find coffee while not straying too far from your gate can be downright overwhelming.

We’ve put together a list of airport eats and their locations to help make your next trip easier.

Coming soon

Keep an eye out for iconic Beecher’s Handmade Cheese’s second Sea-Tac outpost at Concourse N. In that same area, the Bad Egg Breakfast Bar (serving all-day breakfast), British chain Costa Coffee, and Village Pub plan to open soon , too.

Over in the Central Terminal, look out for the fine-dining establishment Salty’s at SEA and the brewery BrewTop Social .
