Why a Swedish imitation of an American sports bar would be something worth exporting is beyond me.
In US airports, I'm a sucker for sports bars and similar, even some of the cheesier chains. While my expectations aren't especially high, I can't recall ever being disappointed. In fact, sometimes I show up early when departing DCA so I can have a complete lunch at Legal. As such, when I saw the olearys place, I went in feeling confident....but, left feeling that I would have done far better pretty much anywhere else. Is there still a popeyes there?
