The quality bar for airport food is set pretty low. Anything better than tasteless should be considered a win. And we all know not to expect value for the dollar. That's why we were pleasantly surprised with Fugitives in BNA's A Concourse.
We had the salad with Nashville Hot Honey Chicken, and the Nashville Hot Honey Chicken sandwich. Both were well made, with an ample portions, fresh ingredients, and prepared fresh to order. The arugula greens, and Romano cheese were accompanied by a very tasty lemon vinegerette dressing. The chicken sandwich was just as good and served with fresh tots.
Yeme our server was incredible. She took care of us, and the entire restaurant of travelers looking to get in and out fast. Efficient but was still personable, friendly, and found time to check back on all her tables (did I mention her station was the entire restaurant?) 10s across the board for service.
The first slight disappointment came with the Nashville Hot Honey Chicken. The description leads one to believe this is Nashville Hot Chicken style. In actuality, it's a hot (temperature) fried chicken with a honey glaze and black pepper. None the less the chicken was very good, cooked perfectly, juicy, with flavors well balanced. If you are looking for spicy though, this is not the chicken your looking for. However, delicious.
The second little surprise was we had food vouchers provided by the airline, because... it doesn't matter. We were informed the voucher could be used at any restaurant. Yeme even said they can be used anywhere. Well, you guessed it, anywhere but here - Fugitives.
Disappointing, but the food and service made up for it, and the value was there. Salad and sandwich $24 for two. Not bad for an airport, given these prices are on par, or even a little under some other similar offerings off airport in Nashville.
Definitely put it on the list to try the next time you are flying through BNA.
