Bessies Diner Reviews

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Stopped in 12/23. This place is really great. On the airport so you can land and taxi up to the door. Lots of windows to watch planes taking off. Food was awesome. Service was fantastic! Everyone was very nice. I recommend if you're flying by you stop. 10 out of 10. Will be back.

A new restaurant has opened in the terminal building. Fun menu, aviation themed, with some classic choices with a modern approach.
