EaterFebruary 12, 2013French Meadow is an organic restaurant with plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options available. Surprisingly large breakfast menu in addition to having a speedy grab-and-go section.
Try the breakfast burrito; it's the best option for a "power breakfast" in the entire airport. No time to wait? Grab a fresh scone or croissant. Much better than the stale pastries at Starbucks!
Adriana AndújarJune 9, 2013Expensive, but the Tomato basil soup was tasty, have a large variety of juices. I had pear...and the baked good ate to die for! Have the blondie - you won't be disappointed!!
Lucille FisherJune 6, 2019They accept vouchers from Priority Pass (get them at the PGA lounge). If you don’t have time, use vouchers at the take out section. Good selections of salads, sandwiches etc.
Steve-OJuly 1, 2015If you would like to have a cup of soup that is so hot that it would melt the Terminator, this is your spot. When you're done, I might suggest that you then visit the local burn unit.
Dom TavMarch 14, 2018The healthier place to eat at MSP! Great veg chili, really tasty. The zen salad bowl is great too.
Jules GanslMay 24, 2013Go right to the Made to order grilled counter. Probably one of the most delicious chicken sandwiches I've ever had. Can't believe it was in an airport!
ValerieJuly 16, 2014Honest to goodness organic vegan options at the airport. The Spa Salad was delicious and more than reasonably priced for an airport.
Edward RoskeMarch 19, 2014VEGETARIANS: excellent vegan food include vegan chili and a vegan tempeh Reuben sandwich. Wholly recommend!
Alex NeuzilMarch 30, 2011Amazing!! The vegan chili is the best chili I have ever had! And of course you have to walk by the dessert bakery on the way out...I caved. But it was worth it
Ernest KimJuly 23, 2011I love the tuna salad here—super flavorful. Also, if you're on a carb restricted diet, their Men's Bread is very low carb and high in protein (it's the only bread I can eat).
Lovely G.November 3, 2014Had the breakfast platter scrambled eggs with cheddar which was amazing...didn't care for the hash or turkey
Kiwi CowgirlAugust 30, 2013Organic salads!!! And coffee!!! And bagels!!!! Something for everyone here :)
Chicken Wild Rice soup is the best in town. I always make a stop at French Meadow when I am in MSP...sometimes on arrival.
Bethany Luck-HutsonDecember 11, 2014The Black Bean Crab Cakes are amazing! And they come on a huge bed of fresh greens... Yummy!
Joanna FlammOctober 17, 2018Grilled chicken sandwich is legitimately good, not just "airport" good. Comes with a side salad.
Matt HealyOctober 19, 2018If you've got a few minutes to spare, go for one of the grilled sandwiches that are made to order.
Lani TrotterMay 31, 2013The sit down and be served section is much nicer than the cafeteria side. There is no one really helping you. But the food aka bread ;) is delish!
Ben RosasMarch 1, 2015You can pay $10 for a packaged microwaved breakfast "thing" down the concourse, or you can get a plate of hot-off-the-griddle goodness here for the same price.
Dan MersonJuly 3, 2011I read it's not as good as the downtown location, but the walleye sammy & firecracker slaw are good. Relaxing & good for people watching. I'll try downtown next time I'm here.
Krishna DhulipalaJanuary 5, 2018Got a Incredible Grilled Cheese Sandwich. I didn’t understand what was Incredible about it. Few greens, cheese and red peppers on toasted bread. Taste was ok. Staff were kind.
David McDonaldNovember 28, 2011This is the best place for vegetarians at MSP. I think the tips about slow service are probably outdated; my server Tiffany was fast yet attentive & the food was great.
steve ulrichNovember 29, 2011most airports are culinary wastelands. not my hometown. when your flight is delayed, I recommend coming down here for a cup of soup and a green tea. then stare out the window and download your email.
Kirstie HeidenreichMarch 31, 2012Great organic selection! The house salad with salmon and beets is wonderful. Far from friendly service, though.
- Best place for breakfast with REAL food and real ingredients. Try the breakfast burrito !
Alison PMarch 28, 2013Soups are great and best followed by a sea foam dark chocolate from the chocolate factory.
Coach de GuzmanMay 21, 2012First time here and I made the best choice to eat breakfast with their monday omelet of the day!!! The best!!!
Victor RodriguezAugust 18, 2014Good quality and fast service. Better option than fast food if you have some time to spare.
- Luis EspinozaOctober 5, 2016A complete chaos. It looks great from a distance but once you get closer you can see how unorganized it is. Food was okay - very difficult to put an order in.
Tempeh Ruben for the win. Even if you're not vegan/veggie!
Luis QuintanillaJanuary 22, 2012Get the goat cheese chipotle quesadilla its damn gooddd! And a blue moom
James CarterMay 20, 2011Roast beef and Havarti was exceptional! Not a big fan of sun dried tomatoes but they were great on this.

"Even though it was packed, we still got seated within 15 mins, and all of our food was amazing! Try the hearty Zen salad (so much food!), any of the corn pancakes or the Benedict. Hashbrowns too!"
