Concourse B is weak for food, but Land-Grant helps
On CMH Concourse B in Terminal T, Land-Grant Brewing Company shows up as one of the few spots locals actually mention by name. A CMH food review on flycolumbus.com singles out its chopped chicken salad as the thing that “hit the spot,” mainly because options in this concourse are thin. Think of it as a brewery-branded bar with a serviceable food menu rather than a full taproom.
You’ll find Land-Grant past security on Concourse B, in the same stretch as the other sit-down spots by the mid-teen gates. Hours track typical CMH bank times, roughly early morning through the last evening departures, but expect lighter action outside the 6:00–20:00 window. Prices sit in standard airport-bar territory, with salads and sandwiches in the low-to-mid teens and beer running a few dollars higher than downtown Columbus.
The move here is that chopped chicken salad the airport review calls out as a lighter pre-flight option with enough “yummy things” to feel like a real meal. It usually lands quicker than burgers or hot sandwiches and works if you’re 45–60 minutes from boarding and don’t want something heavy before a 2–3 hour hop. If you’re just chasing a quick bite, skip anything fried that could bog you down on a short regional leg.
Skytrax reviews rate CMH’s concourse food overall as “pretty weak,” so Land-Grant stands out more by comparison than on absolute quality. Service can drag when a bank of B‑gates boards all at once, and the bar crowd near big Ohio State game days can make it feel packed even at 15:00. Don’t bank on a fast in‑and‑out if boarding starts in under 30 minutes.
Tip: grab a seat, order the chopped chicken salad and your drink at the same time, and set a hard “I’m walking at 25 minutes before departure” alarm so you’re not sprinting back to B-gates boarding.
