Where to Eat and Drink at Oakland International Airport [OAK] | Eater SF

"I find it a solid pre-boarding stop for brewhounds: the Taproom highlights Pyramid ales (including the signature Apricot Wheat), offers seasonal food, taps beers from local Anchor Brewing Company, housemade potato chips, and general pub-style fare." - Eater Staff

A very fine bar at the Oakland airport. They have Modelo on tap and the staff are friendly. Ordered a chicken burrito and it was above average. Slightly overpriced for airport food but the staff made you feel welcome. There are charging ports at tables; great for layovers!

Ok, for airport food (not like you have much of a choice) I ordered the Pork Burrito; it was ok, needs seasoning (no flavor). The pork was moist, but zero taste. I also shared an order of nachos and used the nacho cheese sauce and jalapeños to put on my burrito for flavor; it help to get it down. The nachos were good (not great). The service could use a little friendliness. Not sure if it's just the fact that the airport causes everyone to be in a miserable mood, but that was the vibe.

Like so many other reviews who got the tacos...mine were so very wet that the tortillas fell apart. Like completely fell apart. I had to used a fork and just scoop up the mishmash of taco. I actually liked the taste of the chicken and pork tacos. Also got the Chips and Salsa for $4.50...Chips seemed like costco brand and salsa was safeway select.

Let’s be honest, reviews tend to error too high or over inflate, (how many 5 star restaurants are actually out there?) This place has two things going against it, nothing is stock (currently forgivable) and the most disappointing and disgusting food a restaurant could serve. The tacos had cheap salsa drowning the cold tortillas with a huge scoop of store bought fake guacamole.

This place is awful. Service was extremely slow, selection is limited, and the food is bland! Even for an airport restaurant, this place is overpriced - $40 for a subpar burrito bowl and a drink. I know there are limited options at the Oakland Airport, but don't make the same mistake I made - go literally anywhere else. Skipping a meal is also a better option than trying to eat their food.

Located between Gate 24 and 25. This place is no longer Pyramid Brewing Company. Staff claims they will be changing the name soon. Limited beer and food choices. Way over-priced items. Got one 19.2 oz Anchor Steam beer, and it cost $17.

Good Swiss Mushroom Burger. Medium well done. It's better than average for airport food. This is my second time eating here. Service is very good. I will drop by again.

First customer in there upon opening, ordered two breakfast tacos, both came out cold. I asked for a glass of champagne and receive basically a portion equivalent to a shot which I paid 13.99 for. I commented on the portion, the girl didn’t care. Poor customer service. Many other airport vendors will give you a generous portion of wine and champagne for the same price.

I have eaten here on a couple of occasions when flying out of the Oakland Airport. Not too many other choices in Terminal 2 as of right now. The place can be busy at times depending on flights departures. Food has always been hot and is a bit pricey, but what airport food is not. The breakfast tacos are always a good go to choice for the breakfast time. Seating is very limited at this place, lots of bottled drink options as well. The food comes out extremely quickly most of the time. All in all not a bad choice for a quick bite before you get on the plane since the airlines nowadays don't give you anything but snacks to eat on most flights.

As far as airport bars go, this is definitely one of them. It's not bad, but it's also not great. The drinks are extremely expensive and but pretty good. The food could definitely be better, but if you're hungry it beats airplane food. Given the fact that there are basically no other options in terminal 2, this will get you through the time you need to wait until you board. It would be really nice if they had outlets to charge your electronics while you mindlessly drink your $17 bloody mary, but that might be asking too much of an airport bar. Service is friendly and the place is clean. And really, what else can you ask for in an airport bar? Overall it's consistently passable.

Not much restaurant pick'ns in Terminal 1. I did see someone with the Nachos, so I was all-in. Ordered mine w/pork and Guacamole. Less than 5 minutes and I was into it! With black beans, jalapeños, sour cream, and shredded pork, I catered it with a fork. Delicious for airport cuisine! $22 with a soda.

I stopped at Pyramid Ale House while waiting for an early morning flight. The restaurant had a few people sitting and eating and everything was clean. I ordered the 2 for $13.99 breakfast tacos. I ordered a Chorizo taco (egg, chorizo, roasted potatoes, cheddar-Jack blend, and fire roasted salsa) and a Pork taco (eggs, slow-roasted pork, guacamole, and fire-roasted salsa). The tacos were small, but good and pretty filling. It was an overpriced (which is what you expect from an airport restaurant) quick bite if you haven't eaten anything and want something that tastes good.

If their was a negative scoring system, yup. Sadly disappointed with their nachos. So gross the guacamole is frozen store bought, not fresh as advertised. The chips were stale as fuck! I honestly don't even think the bit of shredding string on the nachos was chicken. I just hope I dnt get sick on my flight home. Clearly just a place to drink. Let me get my drink to kill any bad bacteria from The nachos.

Just awful. It was unfortunate that we had a layover on Christmas Day, so we didn't have a lot of options for food. The menu looked very limited, and it felt like we ordered almost everything: nachos, tacos, a burrito, and chips & salsa. In hindsight, I would have rather we passed on this place and just have not eaten that day. The food was gross. The pork was mushy and had so much excess water that it soaked through the tortilla and dripped out of the tacos. The guacamole was the processed kind that is flavorless and looks like it came out of a tube, and the salsa had absolutely no taste at all. Everything tasted like it was just scoop and serve, and like it had been sitting in warmers all day. I'm sure it's a great spot to pull up a chair and have a drink while you wait for your flight, but I would say take a hard pass on the food.

I hoped this place would be worth 3 stars, but turns out the other reviews are right and it's more of a 2. As my husband put it, this would be a "soft 3" if I did give it a 3. It's tough to be better than a 2 or 3 in an airport. This place is advertised as a taproom but I couldn't find a beer menu anywhere. You order at the counter and we just went with something easy that we know, two Modelos. They have mostly Mexican food options, I got chicken nachos and my husband got a pork burrito. Don't get me wrong, I'm actually a fan of the artificial concession stand style nacho cheese (seriously, I do like it). It just felt like my nachos were covered in too much of this cheese and it didn't mix great with the other toppings. My husband's burrito wasn't served with salsa, chips, or anything on the side. Prices were expensive for average to below average food. Our meal was $70 for two entrees, two beers, and tip. Food came out quickly which was a plus. However, there really wasn't any service since you just order at the counter and do the rest yourself. Not too impressed, but also not too surprised about this type of restaurant in an airport setting.

"Non-existent Service." Waiting for a flight, we wanted to get a drink and a snack. The menu looked good, and the prices were okay for airport prices. After waiting in line for a while we finally gave up. There appears to be insufficient staff. Plenty of tables, just no no one there to serve you.

With a few hours to kill before flying back home, there was no better place to be and cap off a fun-filled NorCal weekend. We started off with a party of 3, one I advised to grab a table while I get in line for brews and grub. The line moved so slowly - and it made sense: they were understaffed. I saw three people, but I'm sure there couldn't be more than 4 (including kitchen staff.) One took orders AND got drinks. Another got drinks AND got food AND emptied out the quickly-filled trash bins. One I just saw coming in and out of the kitchen and possibly one more person making all the food. Boy, I feel bad for them. They were truly hustlin'. Anyway! They had my forever favorite bottle of Apricot Ale. (It would have been better off tap, but I'll take it!) I also put in an order for the nachos + guac+pork. I was told the nachos might take 15 minutes (which was fine.) We sipped and chugged through our drinks and got immersed in conversations when they finally called my name for the nachos. I guess there was a misunderstanding because they called my name to pay for the nachos and that it'd be out in a couple more minutes. No worries, not like I was in some big rush. And the wait was worth it. The pulled pork was the center of the nachos with everything else serving as sidekicks - nachos included. They were also generous in the amount of guac that went with it. We all enjoyed it! FOOD: 5. Based on the nachos alone. SERVICE: 5. They deserve it. Not once did they stop movin' around. VALUE: 4. A bit pricey, but kinda expected given it's the airport. PARKING: N/A. It's in Terminal 1 inside Oakland Airport. OVERALL: 4.5. The rest of my party left much earlier than I did so I found myself flying solo for another hour or so. I got another brew as I watched MNF. On the almost-last drop, I accidentally nudged the nachos box which pushed my beer bottle and broke at the fall. One of the staff members quickly came out with a broom and dustpan assuring me it's no big deal, "It happens all the time." and happily swept all my mess away. Man, she sure is grateful for her job. I would have liked another drink, but the line just got too long. I also didn't like the idea of losing my seat because the place got packed, so, eh... Here's hoping they hire one, maybe two more peeps to join this current crew. It'll just make for better and quicker service - most especially for passengers trying to catch their flights. Here's hoping... Good first run. I would stop by again given the chance.

It seems that during Covid, Pyramid Brewing went out of business. In the Southwest terminal of OAK (Oakland International Airport ) is a remnant where it was once sold along with food. This "beer stand" under a false flag now only serves Blue Moon, Stella, Modella and Coors light. We opted for the nachos ($13.99) + the $3.49 "guacamole". The 10 once beers were $11.99 each. We were drawn into the place by the false (Pyramid) signage and our hunger. Awful & disappointing. Grand Total, before tip (two beers and the 'nachos'): $47.99 This food and beer counter under the guise of a company that no longer exists is merely there to charge you immeasurably for foods (and beer) that require no cooking skills, nor fresh ingredients, slapped together (badly) for maximum profit. Having now read other reviews, I am glad we didn't have the pork added to the nachos. Be warned. For us? Never again! SHAME on whomever is running this mistake of a place.

We had an early flight to catch out of Oakland so we stopped here for a quick bite before boarding. I saw a lot of complaints on here about the customer service being bad but that wasn't my experience at all. The gentleman who took our order was nice. We both ordered a couple breakfast protein bowls containing eggs, salsa, cheese, chicken, black beans and potatoes. All in all, it wasn't bad. Certainly wasn't the worst airport food I've had. The chicken had good flavor and the potatoes were cooked near perfectly. The ambiance is what you would expect at just about any airport eatery. The noise level depends on how many people are flying that day. Since we were there early, it was fairly quiet. As we finished and were leaving, though, it started picking up. I wouldn't hate coming back here. I tend to fly through the Oakland airport quite a bit so in the future, I would definitely stop by again to try their lunch menu & drinks.

Located in the middle of very busy and noisy Oakland Airport gates 24 and 25 serving mainly for the people flying Southwest Airline to and from Santa Ana, Ling Beach, Hawaii and Santa Barbara. The airport prices are reflected and bartender barks the guests first name like a prison guards yelling the names of incarcerated prisoners in Shawshank Redemption, probably one of the best movies based on Stephen King's novel also loosely borrowed from the Count of Monte Cristo. The microbrew beer such as Never Ending Summer and Pink Flamingo are all pretty decent if only the obnoxious bartender barking at you and his lone barmaid repeat your name at the top of their lungs just throws your mood for greasy breakfast wrap smothered in bacon fat served on a paper that you have to carry to the tiny table with two hard chairs. The constant noise from Southwest announcement and Oakland Airport public announcement such as "Smoking is not allowed in the Airport " etc etc is just too much.

Came in early morning for a flight and decided to try some veggie breakfast tacos. I needed a quick meal, so they fulfilled their purpose, but were mediocre overall. The tacos consisted of some scrambled eggs, very little black beans and some potatoes. Also the veggies are nothing to rave about, some pickled jalapeños and onions. Overall, don't expect anything gourmet.

WOW! WHAT A MESS?!?! Okay so my friend and I were walking around the airport trying to find a place to eat. We walked all the way down to the end and turned around and came back here. He said that he had a good burger here. So we go in and sit down. I look at the menu...Tacos and Nachos. That's it!! So we talk to the waiter, Elaine. She says that they don't have burgers anymore. The kitchen is closed. They only have tacos and nachos. So my friend asks her, "If you don't have a kitchen, where do you make the food"? She points to the little storeroom behind the bar. Okay - well I happen to like tacos and nachos, so we decide that we're going to eat here. Service was bad. She was very slow. But it IS the airport. I was thinking nachos, but decided on the barbacoa tacos. For $5.99 or two for $10.99 you get two tacos. When my tacos came you can imagine what I thought... It's a flour tortilla with a little scoop of meat and a teaspoon of sauce on top. I know the menu says barbacoa and fire roasted salsa, but I am thinking some lettuce, maybe onion and cilantro and a little cheese. NOPE!! Needless to say I was very disappointed. The flavor was okay, but the Tacos were a joke. A REAL joke. I did not complain - the nachos looked okay and was a decent serving. My friend enjoyed his nachos (3 on a 5 scale) We were on business so we needed to have separate checks. She said it was going to be a problem and tried to convince us to keep it on one. We said that we HAD to have them separated. She said that it was going to take at least 10 minutes to get the manager to fix it. We held our ground and she left. She returned about three minutes later with the checks. we paid and departed. THIS PLACE IS A JOKE.

Update: It's still no change from my last review less than a month ago. I don't know why I out of pocket myself and thought maybe it would be different Well actually I do know why I did that. I saw that there was a different bar tender and I thought MAYBE things would be better from the last time WELL NOPE So I sat at the bar. Ordered a margarita. I was told that margaritas come with double shots UGHHH OKKK lady last month didn't mention that So I went ahead and ordered the double shot margarita. Then he tells me he is all out of limes and he cannot make a margarita. Surprise surprise. I'm looking at the breakfast menu. See a breakfast tacos. Before I even try and order he says there is no cheese available and no pico de Gallo available Soooo what is the fricken point ???? Mind you it's 830am. How you gonna be out of that already??? Other customers were making comments also sooo it wasnt just me. Gonna brush this off and keep it pushing

If I could give a place negative stars, I would. Where to begin? OK beer selection, but "taproom" is false advertising. No Pyramid beers to be found. The tacos and burritos: think cheap school cafeteria fare--but that's unfair to many schools! The chips and queso were the "highlight" but they were more like nachos at a bad minor league ballpark. We spent $70 (including tip) and felt like we'd been robbed in an alley. To add further insult to injury, when we got home, I noticed a surcharge for "employee benefits" on our receipt. AVOID!

Even though this Pyramid taproom is in the Oakland airport they should be ashamed of themselves for price gouging. They charged me $22 for a glass of wine & refused to put it in a wine glass. They only serve wine in a plastic to go glass right now because of COVID. I refused to buy the glass of wine once I saw the bill. The bartender shrugged her shoulders & said, " I know." I ordered a beer instead. The IPA was decent but also was overpriced at $12.

$15 for microwaved rice and tortilla they call a burrito, had like 5 beans and 2 potatoes in it. $9 for a cup of spoiled grapes. I'll be asking for a charge back for a restaurant first time ever Pictures of 16oz beers and cocktails in glasses Reality $12.75 for a 12oz beer in plastic cup $19 for an 8 ounce cocktail in a plastic cup Horrible

Went here while waiting for a flight at OAK. They only had the breakfast menu, which was a choice of either tacos or burritos. I got the chorizo breakfast tacos. They were reasonably priced for airport food, but oh my god- they were absolutely terrible. They tasted like everything was out of a can or a bag. Overly salty, poor flavor. No texture, either- everything was super mushy. The guy helming the bar was super super sweet and I think Pyramid's beers are fine, hence the 2 stars rather than one, but if you would like to preserve your tastebuds and your intestines, grab food elsewhere.

Breakfast in a beer place? OAK seems to lag SFO in terms of breakfast options. We saw folks sitting here eating before our flight - way too early to drink beer, even on Good Friday! The restaurant is seat yourself and hope to catch a waitress. Breakfast menu is very limited - various breakfast sandwiches with biscuit buns and your choice of greek yogurt or oatmeal. Pretty basic,but I did find some positives: * Steel cut oatmeals were real creamy, almost congee-like in texture. They loaded it up with walnuts and raisins, with brown sugar on the side. * The potato side dish with the sandwiches was outstanding - seasoned, minced up potatoes that was almost like eating rice, so it has a nice texture. They must have cooked it with some herbs too. * Unfortunately, the biscuit bun was on the dry side. Its extremely hard to get this right. The Sunrise sandwich has a nice fried egg, crispy bacon, and smashed avocado but man that dry biscuit doesn't quite cut it. It would be better if they replace it with toast, croissant, or a bagel. Still, not a bad sit-down breakfast option for OAK.

Ok so the people were nice but the food is meh. I got the veggie bowl and I got exactly how it was described. However, everything tasted like airplane food. Guac and sour cream were okay but everything else tasted dry. Service was quick and there is a good amount of place to sit down and dine. I would suggest this place for drinks but maybe not food.

The food tasted good enough, but the portions were not adequate for what you pay. Might as well go to Subway. I don't usually mind paying for good food, but this was both "just ok" and also very small portion.

What a crap place. At an airport never less. Got escorted out because the drink I ordered wasn't the right one to allow me to sit at a table and charge my phone. People sitting there with beer sipping it for 2 hours where fine, me with water (still like 5 bucks) was told I need to leave unless I order more. Only place to charge your phone is this stupid airport..

In the airport by gate 25 and not much is open. I have a 2 hour layover and it's time to eat. The menu is simple and over priced but I'm stuck here so ok. Ordered 3 tacos and nachos. 32.61 total and we passed by a cafe so my wife also wanted the clam chowder from the cafe. Where do I began well it was clear the salsa was pace picante because my father in-law eats that slop poor guy. The tacos pork had a dollop of guacamole that was clearly out of a container with no flavor. Meat as well no seasoning at all. Nachos were exactly what you get at 7-11 no joke. The chips, salsa, jalapeños, and cheese sauce all 7-11. Don't waste money your better off buying a pre- made sandwich from the store or go to the cafe where my wife got her clam chowder. Avoid this place and take my warning.

My fiancé and I ordered two chicken tacos and a pork burrito. These meals were both small in size and flavorless. The tacos dripped oil on to our plate every single bite. Probably two tablespoons of oil in total. This oil resulted in a wet and unappetizing tacos. The pork burrito was composed of mostly rice and beans with very little pork throughout. We are disappointed in the quality of the food served here. We would advise to avoid this restaurant at all costs. I'll travel hungry before spending another dollar at this "restaurant".

I've been traveling quite a bit the last few months, and have eaten at several airport restaurants... so this review is not biased. In summary: The Food was not great at all, the service was not a redeeming quality either, the only thing this place had going was that it had tables to sit at. Food: We got the Nachos with chicken and the pork tacos. I recommend neither! Especially not the pork tacos. This place is a brewery, so I already had expectations of pub food. However, their food is microwaved food and it doesn't not seem like actual cooking is done, prepared- maybe, cooked? No. The nachos did not have much cheese, there was a blob of store-bought guacamole, black beans and some sauce. The chicken on the nachos seemed like canned chicken and did not have much flavor to it, but the nachos were most definitely more edible than the pork tacos. The pork tacos were served on corn tortillas, and the meat was a bit pink and did not look very well cooked, it also had the similar blob of guac and red sauce, but I only took one bite and threw the rest away. So if you decide to go there, DO NOT have the pork tacos! Service: some of the tables were clean, but not all. I'm sure they were understaffed, so we were patient and cleaned our own table to sit at. The line to order was long, and the wait takes quite a bit as well, so if you're looking for a super quick bite before tour next flight, this is not the spot. Overall, this place was lackluster and we will not be back. I hope they take the time to change some things soon.

0 stars should be an option for places that turn you away for service. Walked in to view a sign that said "open seating". One gentleman in front of me ordering a drink. I wait behind him. After he is served kindly I am asked by a bartender who took an odd tone, "are you next or is she next"... i look to my left and I see the kind lady that I walked past at the entrance (like she is not inside the restaurant at all". I confidently confirm that I am next, as I was waiting behind the gentleman just served. The waitress looks at me and asks again to the lady, "is he next or are you next"... then looks at me to say "because the line usually starts back there"... I am blown away because the far more fair skinned gentleman in front of me wasn't asked to stand in any line... as he was at the bar and I was only a few steps behind him... additionally... why would you turn to someone literally behind me to ask if they should be next... when I'm standing 20 feet closer to you? Why would you even be so confrontational as an employee to insinuate to someone else that I cut them... when they themselves raised no issue. As I turn away to avoid further conflict the lady behind me and bartender continue to make comments. Was in Oakland for a day and the only negative interaction I had was at a bar over a stupid beer. Or lack there of. Slid on over and got some wine instead.

Bad even for airport food. Burrito was dry and just not very good Guacamole had neither salt nor lime. Sort of just mashed up avocado. Seems like they aren't really even trying

I usually don't give below 4 stars, but this place was below mediocre. Since we were stuck at an airport, My family and I decided to go here since the food looked okay. At first, we almost didn't go because a pork burrito was 16.99!! But I bought one anyway. The black beans were bland, the rice was white rice, not " Spanish" the pork was okay, the salsa tasted like the Tostitos salsa, and the tortilla was okay, but not good. 16.99$ for this?? What a ripoff! The chips had an alright taste, but they were stale. Service was okay because we got our food in about 5 minutes. In summary, our experience here wasn't great, and Im pretty sure we will not be returning

Honestly, the customer service can use some work. For those that don't want to dine in and sit down, you can order with one of the servers walking around. There was one particular server that had the rudest attitude working today (younger, brown hair, didn't smile, comes with an attitude) working on 12/2 around 915a, she can use a customer service class, just sayin' - otherwise Maggie, is awesome - she'll help you and even provide a smile. I tried the Fried Chicken Sandwich. At $15 I would say, it's not worth the price, but mind you it is "airport" food prices. While I compare everything to Popeye's Chicken Sandwich now, this particular breakfast sammie, which is a crispy piece of chicken with a fried egg between two thick biscuits, with hot sauce smothered all over - it was just OKAY. With its hefty price tag of $15 - lets just say, I will not order this in the future. Try at your own risk.

Food Review: Poor Tasting & Way Overpriced I don't have high expectations for airport food / restaurants . . . but this was so poor I felt compelled to write a short review. We walked all of terminals 1 & 2 looking for a restaurant as we had an almost 3 hour layover and were hungry. This airport has so few options. Pyramid had a sign with pictures of the food which looked pretty decent - didn't see prices but didn't worry much about that. My son and I almost decided to get a sandwich at Subway but instead decided to join the girls here. We stood in line for about 20 minutes. Ordered 3 things: nachos, burrito, and a rice bowl and 2 waters. $53!!! The food was ready in about 5 minutes. Everything looked like what you would get at a stadium - actually, I've got better and cheaper food at a ball game!! The food was way overpriced and tasted so bland. So, I would recommend getting prepackaged food at one of the stands scattered around the terminals or stand in line for Subway - or just fast!

Good bar to kill time at if you're at this airport. Good beers on tap and always have sports channel on. Staff is fairly friendly and you get your drinks pretty quick. I'm revoking stars after reflecting on my recent visit. There were a ton of people still at the bar as it was one of the few places showing the Kobe tribute for the Lakers first game after his tragic passing. I understand they close at 11:00PM but why did you just serve someone a beer at 10:50 then? Do you expect them to chug it, pay and get out? On top they started turning the tv's off one by one as the minutes passed telling everyone to get out. I get that you're closing but come on, they could've made an exception that night. I normally have a pretty good experience but that was plain rude. I can't say I won't be back because where else am I gonna get a beer..

You know, I had a rather pleasant dining experience here. My flight was delayed, but rather than eating something that was 1) pre-made 2) made to order right away, I opted for a traditional sit down restaurant. My server was speedy quick and I got my order in a short amount of time. I ordered the chicken quesadilla ($12.99). It comes with with sautéed peppers, onions, jack cheese, guacamole, sour cream + pico de gallo. This was hearty and delicious. The chicken portions were generous and the quesadilla was hearty - totally not what I was expecting. I felt like I was getting a good value for my money. If you have a little bit of time, I would suggest you coming here because it's way better if you got something to go.

It's serves a purpose. Beer or wine or drink before a flight. Food options were not tried. No Pyramid beers were available and blue moon was $12. Pricy but airport prices

First of all, the Southwest terminal sucks when it comes to food options. This was the only substantial place not ridiculously packed on a Friday evening and one of the few places to get a drink in this Terminal, but unfortunately, they make you get food (although, it could be a bag of chips too). I made the mistake of ordering their Pork Burrito ($14) along with 2 Coronas at the average price. Extra star and extra tip for the no f*cks given bartender, we liked his attitude. 1 star for the burrito. Not sure how it's even possible to make the burrito taste flavorless and worse than a microwaveable burrito. The menu said "Spanish rice" and it was definitely rice pilaf -_- that's steamed and unseasoned. Grab your drinks here, but pass on the food.

I should have read the reviews... super slow line,,, only one person serving up front (no table service still, which is fine,,, but two other people just standing around)... Veggie burrito is called out for pickup: "can I get some salsa?" --"salsas in the burrito!"... another person serving thankfully hands some Cholula packets: best part of the burrito it turns out! $15 for a veggie burrito which is like 95% rice, a few beans, maybe one or two green(ish) peppers. Didn't see anything resembling salsa inside either... Extra star (to make it 2) is for a reasonable seating option (lucky?) and a cold Hazy IPA... both of which are basics,,,, but I'm not a fan of a 1 star unless its really bad. I don't think I've ever even given a 1star in my history,,, Plus maybe there's the universal Covid pass, even though that's kinda passed(?). Either way: set your expectations low enough and you'll be fine(!). I don't think all Pyramids are this weak, but I could be wrong. They (corporate) should be ashamed of this offering! Totally fixable(!!). It shows up as two different establishments on yelp and both have an average of 2*(?). Wow. **oh, and you have to go back in the original slow-line if you want anything else... ;0. Good luck!

Total garbage food, and only the most minimal selection. Had the tacos and chips and cheese. The cheese tasted and looked like it came from a lab and the tacos were falling apart. Weak drinks. Go elsewhere. ANYWHERE else. How can Pyramid allow their name to be in this place? Have they fallen THAT far??

The food is so bad, that as a Mexican I felt I was hate crimed. Like I would have preferred being called slurs or assaulting my intestines with taco bell. The corn tortillas are soggy, the chicken is old, and the carnitas are just boiled pork. The salsa is literally just Pace salsa. I also got chips and guacamole and thr guacamole was partially frozen and the chips were stale. Don't eat here. Not even out of desperation. This places does not deserve to exist

G was our server Friday afternoon as we departed Oakland for Orange county. He was so fast and friendly. Hard to believe we were sitting at an airport bar, (until we got the $80 bill; haha!) But that's to be expected. We like sitting at the long table next to the bar and chatting with the other travelers. For this particular flight, our Gate was next to the restaurant, so we stayed seated until they called to start boarding group A. We had pot stickers with pickled veggies, a side of French Fries, two Apricot Ales and two shots of Jameson. Yum!

Pyramid has traditionally good brews and some signature cocktails, but very high prices. For example, my Smokey Bloody Mary was $17.99 ($15.99 + tax + surcharge). That's robbery. Located in the Southwest Terminal, it's main issue is slower than slow service. Worse yet, they don't even acknowledge patrons. So much so, I watched tables near me, before and after I got seated, 4 out of 5 groups, leave without ordering. That's a lot of $ lost. 1 star -- well deserved for prices and service.
