Travel Lounges & Dining
Foodservice Solutions for Travel Lounges and Dining, Commercial Kitchen and Cafeteria Design, and Equipment Supply
Traveler foodservice environments demand speed, precision, and adaptability. From tight security protocols to nonstop passenger flow, every detail must be carefully planned and executed to ensure operations continue smoothly. The Sam Tell Companies brings proven expertise to designing and building foodservice operations that perform reliably in active airport settings, train stations, bus stations, and luxury travel lounges.
Built to Perform in High Traffic Settings
Completing a redesign or installation in a fully operational airport or travel hub presents unique challenges. Our team understands how to work within strict schedules, security requirements, and limited access windows to keep projects moving forward.
We manage logistics and coordination carefully to avoid delays—helping each space return to full operation as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Elevated Dining for Travel Lounges
Travel lounges are a highly valued amenity for airline guests, setting expectations for comfort, quality, and consistency. While the experience is front-facing, success starts behind the scenes.
We design kitchens and work areas that support premium food and beverage service, allowing lounge staff to deliver a seamless, elevated experience to travelers.

Whether your project involves a renovation or a brand-new build, we deliver comprehensive foodservice solutions for airport environments, including:
- Commercial kitchens
- Cafeterias and serveries
- Food storage and support areas
With the right expertise, equipment, and project management in place, Sam Tell ensures airport and travel lounge dining operations are built to meet the demands of high-volume, fast-paced travel hubs.
