Entrees include flatbread pizzas, salads, sandwiches and burgers. A breakfast menu of breakfast sandwiches, omelets, skillets and baked goods is also available.
As for BOS, a PGA Tour Grill is now open in Terminal B near Gate 7. The restaurant focuses on fresh, healthy meals to fuel an active lifestyle. The opening coincides with the PGA Tour’s Deutsche Bank Championship being help near the airport in September.
“We’re excited to increase our presence in such a great sports town with the opening of the PGA Tour Grill at Boston Logan International,” says Ty Votaw, chief marketing officer for PGA Tour. “HMSHost has done a terrific job of developing the PGA Tour Grill concept at other airport locations, not only as a fun place to eat but as a way to recognize and celebrate the PGA Tour tournaments in those markets.
