Wow, nobody's mentioned The Flight Deck in LIT yet. It's in the Central Flying Service FBO. GREAT burgers.

Buffalo Burger, AVX, + $20 landing fee..... but its cool to say you flew to Catalina to get lunch

Ponca City OK

Pretty good mexican food. Even the locals fill the place.

Cheap fuel, good restaurant, fast turn around, long runway, flat terrain with an ILS make this a popular refueling spot for x-country pilots and their passengers.

Celebrities, sports stars, and heavy iron are common sites at this airport.

I second PNC. We take the FAA there for our 135 line checks, very busy at lunch. Im from San Diego and its hard to find Mexican food worth stomaching out here but this place is good.

Tailwinds at OCF - Best blueberry pancakes I've ever had, can't comment on the other food as I've only been during breakfast.

Lambert's Cafe in Foley, AL (Gulf Coast) - Not on the airport, but if you land at 5R4 or JKA and call them at 251-943-7655, they will send a car to pick you up, take you in the back door and the first available table is yours, even with a 2 hour wait for everyone else. One word of caution, you are so full when you leave you feel like sleeping instead of flying.

I'll throw in another vote for Enrique's in PNC. Of course, I live here, but would definately make a stop for it.

 

[CFIcare]

I'll vote for the 1. buffalo burger at Perfect Landing, (APA)
2. Tailwinds Cafe at OCF...pancakes....
3. Tony's Airside at Lakeland (KLAL)
4. Runway Cafe at Sebring (KSEF) Sunday breakfast buffet

Ocala! That's so funny; I instructed there for a year, long long ago. Is Sam still serving up the pancakes there? She was always so sweet to us...

Stellas at EVB closed I guess, became a place called Gumbo's (Cajun), now its back as Stellas. went there for the first time on yesterday. Good food and cute girls.

Cockpit cafe in Sanford, Maine is good for breakfast and lunch (SFM
Pasquales at the Auburn/Lewiston airport in Maine is good

 

[MagicRat]

Perfect Landing at APA definitely serves great food. The only problem -- and it's been a consistent one every time I've been there -- is the service is painfully, painfully slow.

Enrique's....that's it. Couldn't remember the name yesterday.


mu2cptn.....it's good, but I wouldn't agree with you on not having good Mexican food in SAN. There's a place in Old Town (the old place that's been there for years) that's one of my favorites of anywhere I've ever eaten.

I'll throw my .02 worth.

Enrique's (sp) I went there on one of my first x/c during flight school.

We be smoken down in Miami county, KS

Tony's was ok in LAL

Hi jackers in Flagler county, FL was good. Even better when a friend of a friend picks up the tab.

I'm still new to FL so if there are any more ideas for food in FL keep them coming.
