Bristol Airport to introduce two new food and drink outlets

Two new food and drink outlets will be landing at Bristol Airport in the coming months providing more choice for customers.

Bristol Airport is transforming its food and beverage offering for passengers as part of its multi-million-pound redevelopment, with a second new Burger King restaurant to be introduced alongside a refreshed, bigger M&S Food store.

The new M&S Food will be located on the top floor of the new Public Transport Interchange (PTI), which is due to open this summer, with the brand-new Burger King located landside, before security, in the terminal entrance.

Kate Gwyther, Head of Retail, Bristol Airport said: “We’re pleased to announce that soon Bristol Airport will be home to an even better, brand-new M&S Food store. Its prime position is ideal for easy access for all departing and arriving passengers, as they will naturally use the pedestrian bridge connected to the Public Transport Interchange to enter and leave the terminal building. The new store is due to open this summer.

“Meanwhile, having Burger King before security will provide customers with more food and refreshment options for a quick meal.”

The new Burger King restaurant will allow passengers to experience flame-grilled perfection with its delicious menu. Customers can enjoy classics made with fresh ingredients including the iconic Whopper® featuring 100% British and Irish beef, as well as the legendary Chicken Royale, all perfectly accompanied with delectable Chilli Cheese Bites amongst many other mouthwatering delights.

The new M&S Food store will be a standout addition to the redeveloped Public Transport Interchange, offering passengers a significantly enhanced retail experience. Customers can enjoy a brand-new in-store bakery offering delicious baked goods and serving fresh coffee. The transformed, spacious layout will make shopping quicker, easier and more enjoyable with plenty more products to choose from, all delivering the quality and trusted value M&S is known for. M&S’ existing store will close on Friday 23 May.

Bristol Airport has worked in partnership with SSP Group, a leading operator of food and beverage outlets in travel locations worldwide, to improve the latest customer offering.

Cathy Granby, Business Development Director of SSP UK & Ireland, said: “We’re really excited to expand our offer at Bristol Airport, with these new units ensuring we continue to meet the needs of every passenger. The Airport is embarking on a new era of travel to, from and within Bristol, and we’re delighted to be at the forefront of what it has to offer for customers living in and visiting the city.”

Bristol Airport is investing more than £60 million in its largest capital project yet. The new Public Transport Interchange for coaches, buses and other forms of transport is scheduled to open early this summer, and will also feature a multi-storey car park, glazed bridge link between the car parks and terminal, new waiting and rest facilities and enlarged drop off and pick up area, as part of a large expansion program enabling 12 million passengers a year to use the Airport. This area will serve all arriving and departing passengers from the Airport.
