Concessionaire HMSHost (part of the Avolta family of travel food and retail brands) and NASCAR motorsports have launched a new pit stop at St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL): the NASCAR Drafthouse, a full-service restaurant and bar now open in Terminal 1.
The new, 90-seat eatery features officially licensed NASCAR memorabilia, multiple TVs for fans to catch the latest race, and a comprehensive breakfast, lunch and dinner menu of Southern comfort-inspired fare, including grab-and-go options. The menu also offers a variety of draft beers, canned beers and wines as well as racing-themed specialty cocktails like the “The Caborita” and “The Checkered Flag,” plus Midnight Moon® moonshine — a nod to NASCAR’s origins as a conduit for illegal liquor transport.
“NASCAR is an icon of the motorsport world, and HMSHost is thrilled for the opportunity to offer travelers and diehard NASCAR fans a fun new food and beverage experience at St. Louis Lambert International Airport,” said HMSHost vice president of business development Bryan Loden. “NASCAR Drafthouse pairs the energy of this renowned racing brand with HMSHost’s culinary expertise to create a restaurant that makes a traveler’s journey as exciting as their ultimate destination. We are proud of our continued partnership with St. Louis Airport Authority to transform the passenger experience.”
“St. Louis is a passionate NASCAR market and we’re thrilled to partner with an industry leader like HMSHost to bring the NASCAR Drafthouse concept to life here, providing visitors to and from the region a great new spot to refuel on the road,” said Megan Malayter, managing director of licensing and consumer products for NASCAR.
