Near most B gates, Hudson News is the grab-and-go stop
Terminal B’s Hudson News sits past security, close enough to most B concourses that you can duck in and be back at your gate in under 5–10 minutes. This is the standard LGA newsstand setup: bottled drinks, packaged snacks, gum, basic meds, and stacks of magazines and paperbacks for the flight. Prices run higher than street level, but still in the normal airport range for water, chips, and candy.
Expect early-morning to late-evening hours that track with Terminal B’s main bank of departures, roughly 5:00 a.m. through late-night flights. Coffee is basic kiosk quality, not a replacement for the bigger coffee chains in B, but fine if you’re boarding in 15 minutes and just need caffeine and a muffin. You’ll also find phone chargers, headphones, and travel-sized toiletries when your bag is already checked and you realize something got left at home.
Selection leans heavily on grab-and-go: think single-serve nuts, granola bars, bottled iced coffee, and 20–24 oz sodas. Reading material covers the usual big-name titles plus a handful of New York newspapers, handy if you’re flying out on Delta or American and want something offline for a 2–3 hour leg. Expect impulse items at the register, including gum, mints, and last-minute souvenirs with “New York” splashed across them.
Tip: If your flight leaves from a far B concourse, stop at Hudson News right after security; options thin out near some end-of-pier gates.
