I fly out of/into IAH almost every week but never eat at the airport. So is there anything special at Pappadeauxs in terminal E that one might not find at local Pappadeauxs around Houston?
Higher prices?

OP here. Flight to GIG delayed. 6.5 hour layover now. Never been here, as thread title indicates. Should I venture out? Pappadeauxs isn't for me - can't have seafood.

If you're up for a burger, there's a Fuddrucker's near A1 (you can take the shuttle over there as well so you don't have to go through security again).

I concur with the compliments on the Term E Pres Club. Actually, just about all of the bartenders are great - but Tripp is my favorite. The italian margarita is ridiculous.. after a few of those, you can even bear coach! ;-)

Well, I asked a PC agent for a restaurant recommendation and she sent me on the train to the Marriott. Sitting in JK's revolving bar, sipping a Chambourd, having consumed a so-so cut of prime rib. The agent gave me a $30 voucher, which I wasn't expecting.

If you want another choice (although Pappadeaux's is great), I have enjoyed Le Grand Comptoir in terminal C.

The Real Food Company in terminal C isn't bad either.

When I think about it, IAH is actually pretty good for eatin'.
It has improved in recent years. Terminal E was the first big improvement. Terminal C, until about a year ago, was pretty lacking, but the recent additions there have really helped improve the food options there. Terminals A and B still need a lot of improvement, especially if you're looking for something to eat after around 8:00 PM.

No why would one do that!! ;) I never have!! :cool:

If in BF that is most likely the reason for the $30 voucher. Like others have mentioned, there are several great places in C opening up and within the year I believe the Gallaghers will be open in C South.


The Pappadeaux does have a few none seafood items on the menu that are good as well. Especially the Key Lime Pie!! Other entrees too!

The E PC staff and the Bartenders are great!!

+1. I "try" to only come to the airport when I'm dropping someone off. The conversation goes something like this: "Oh you need a ride to the airport? Nah, I'm cool. No, Let me take you to the airport."

That's pretty cool. There's only so much that you can do (and drink) at IAH. It's kind of tough getting around Houston without a car.
