Gate A1 coffee line too long? Sandwiches and Salads sits 30 seconds away.
This walk-up counter sits between gates A1 and A7 in Terminal A, past security, and mostly runs on grab-and-go. You’ll see premade sandwiches, basic salads, and a small pastry case in a tight footprint that feels more like a kiosk than a café. It’s one of the few spots in BUR where you can grab real food right at the A1 cluster instead of walking toward the B side.
Pricing runs in typical airport range: expect around $9–$13 for most sandwiches and $8–$11 for salads, plus bottled drinks that land in the $3–$5 band. Portions skew on the modest side for that price, so plan on this as a light meal or a tide-you-over before a later dinner. If you’re trying to stay under $20, skip extras like snacks and stick with a sandwich-and-water combo.
Food is premade and boxed, so speed is the main upside; you can usually get in and out in under 5 minutes if there’s no line at the single register. Selection tends to lean toward turkey or ham sandwiches, basic green salads, and maybe one vegetarian option, all in the cooler. Don’t expect made-to-order hot items or anything cooked on-site.
Hours loosely track the Terminal A schedule, opening for early flights around 5:00 a.m. and closing once the last evening departures around gates A1 and A7 wind down. If you’re on a very late departure after 9:00 p.m., have a backup in mind. Tip: check the cooler near the front first; that’s where the freshest sandwiches usually land when staff restock between banked departures.
