From pancakes and croque madames to burritos and a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, MSP Airport has plenty of ways to start your trip right. Here's where to find breakfast and brunch favorites in the terminal, including a few spots that keep serving them well past the morning rush.
Hi-Lo Diner
Wake yourself up anytime at this retro-meets-modern diner with a Breakfast Burrito, Fedora Breakfast, Greek Yogurt Parfait, Breakfast Nachos and Hi-Lo Pancakes on the menu. Hi-Lo Diner serves breakfast throughout the day.
Mimosa
This French-inspired brasserie has a dedicated breakfast menu for early flyers. The Croque Madame and Croque Monsieur are on both the breakfast and main menus, so you can have one with a late-afternoon glass of something bubbly.
Stone Arch
You can arrive early at this airport bar known for Minnesota craft beer, with a hearty breakfast menu that starts at 5:30 a.m. The Fried Egg and Bacon Sandwich is on both the breakfast and lunch menus, so it’s available well past the morning rush.
Lake Wine Kitchen + Bar
Lake Wine recently rolled out new breakfast and brunch menus. Look for Poached Egg Toast, pancakes with strawberry-chardonnay butter, French toast with bananas and chocolate mousse, a bacon apple flatbread with a poached egg, Croque Madame, and bacon, sausage or veggie frittatas. Lighter picks include steel-cut oatmeal and the Fresh Start with yogurt, granola, fruit and a muffin.
Hometown Market
Need something in a time crunch? Hometown Market has an assortment of grab-and-go breakfast pastries for a quick bite on your way to the gate.
Roasting Plant
Fresh coffee is the draw here: beans are roasted onsite, you choose your blend, and each cup is brewed individually. Pair it with one of their breakfast options on the way to your gate.
Vino Volo
The wine bar has added Spyhouse Coffee, a Minneapolis roaster, to its menu. It's a good option when you want a Twin Cities coffee in a more relaxed spot.
