HMSHost, along with partner Morgan Group Ventures, has opened the Washington Redskins Burgundy & Gold Club at Washington Dulles International (IAD). The restaurant offers guests game day- inspired cuisine.
Located in Concourse B, the chef-driven, full service restaurant and bar features local favorites like the Old Bay Grilled Chicken Wings, the Kaplan & Zubin Fried Pickles and the Corndog Puppies. The full bar includes a broad selection of local beers, wine, and crafty cocktails such as Team Captain and The Ginger Snapback.
Large television screens are located throughout the venue. The restaurant’s décor features Washington Redskins memorabilia, everything from helmets and cleats to bobbleheads, replica Lombardi trophies, and autographed jerseys from the team’s greatest players. A large video wall showcases the team’s history and illuminated transparent mesh images hang from the ceiling and feature the team’s legendary players inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
“The Washington Redskins, one of the best known NFL brands in the world, now has a themed restaurant at Dulles International that will connect passengers to this long-standing football dynasty,” said Jerome L. Davis, Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority executive vice president and chief revenue officer. “The collaboration between the Airports Authority, Marketplace and HMSHost brought the Burgundy and Gold Club to fruition, providing a sense of place, local flavor and a fun experience for passengers traveling through the airport.”
