Popular Orlando Restaurant Recognized Among Best Airport Dining in US

ORLANDO, Fla. (March 5, 2019) — Your next trip to Orlando International Airport just got upgraded. MCO eatery Cask & Larder, operated by Master ConcessionAir, has once again been named among the best airport dining locations in the country.

The Winter Park favorite turned airport eatery took second place on USA Today’s 10Best list of Best Airport Local/Regional Dining, beating out restaurants from all over the country.

The restaurant also claimed the second-place spot on the Best Airport Bar/Restaurant Atmosphere list.

For the past four years, USA Today 10Best and Airport Experience News (AXN) have partnered to find North America’s best airports and airport concessions. AXN, a top industry trade, narrowed it down to several finalists, then 10Best readers were given four weeks to vote on their favorites daily.

 

This is the third year Cask & Larder has been recognized among the best airport dining by USA Today 10Best. In 2018, the airport restaurant was second on the Best Airport Local/Regional Dining and fifth on the Best Airport Sit-down Dining lists.
