Dining options feature a blend of local favorite Convive Coffee Roasters, nationally recognized Shake Shack, and three SSP America boutique brands: Stack & Press, Mi Casa Cantina and Bad Egg Breakfast Shack.
The new restaurants are the latest additions to a sweeping overhaul at Pittsburgh International Airport, which also includes t he new 811,000-square-foot terminal, a 5,000-space parking garage and a connector bridge linking the new terminal to the existing airside terminal, as previously reported by TribLive.
