Salads and bowls instead of burgers in SMF Terminal B
Freshii sits airside in Terminal B, past security and on the concourse used by Southwest and other carriers. It’s the main quick option here for wraps, salads, and grain bowls instead of fries and burgers. You order at the counter, pay, then wait a few minutes while they assemble your bowl or wrap, so it’s still workable on a 30–40 minute sit at the gate.
Menu hits are the Buddha’s Satay or Oaxaca-style bowls, plus basic build-your-own salads and burrito-style wraps. Prices run roughly $10–$15 per bowl or wrap, which is standard for SMF Terminal B. You’ll also see pre-made yogurt parfaits, cut fruit cups, and bottled kombucha alongside the usual bottled water and sodas in the cooler by the register.
Freshii opens early enough to catch the first B-gates bank, with breakfast items like egg-based wraps and oatmeal available in the morning hours, then flips fully to lunch/dinner by around 10:30 a.m. Seating is limited to a few nearby tables on the concourse near other Terminal B food spots, so most people just take their food back toward gates around B7–B15.
You can keep it relatively light here: brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice, extra vegetables, and dressings on the side are all easy custom options the staff handles at the line. Portions are decent for a pre-flight meal, and you can skip add-ons like extra cheese or sauce to keep it under 700–800 calories by eyeballing what goes into the bowl.
Practical tip: if your SMF departure from Terminal B is tight, order one of the pre-boxed salads or wraps from the cooler instead of a made-to-order bowl; you’ll be out in under 5 minutes and eating at the gate while boarding your group.
