Gate-side in Terminal T, Restaurant 3 is your sit-down option
Restaurant 3 sits airside in Terminal T at Argyle International Airport (SVD), a short walk from most gates. It’s one of the few places in the terminal where you can actually sit at a table instead of hovering near the gate with a takeaway box. Think basic airport restaurant: standard menu, cold drinks, a bar counter, and TV noise in the background.
Hours typically track the main bank of departures, roughly from the first outbound flight in the morning until the last evening service, so figure roughly 7:00 to 20:00, give or take. If you have an early LIAT or Caribbean Airlines hop, don’t count on a hot breakfast here right at opening; grabbing a snack from a kiosk as backup is smart.
Pricing lands squarely in “airport mark-up” territory: expect mains in the EC$35–60 range, soft drinks around EC$6–10, and a basic beer somewhere under EC$15. For a sit-down plate and a drink, budgeting EC$60–80 per person keeps you out of surprises when the bill shows up.
Menu style trends toward simple Caribbean and international standards: grilled chicken with rice, a burger and fries, maybe a fish plate when the kitchen has it. If there’s a daily fish special listed on the board, that’s usually the best bet for value and freshness compared with the burger that’s been ordered 40 times that day. Portions run medium, not huge, so a hungry traveler may want an extra side.
Service pace at Restaurant 3 matches island time more than tight connections; a made-to-order plate can take 20–30 minutes once you sit down. If your boarding pass shows under 45 minutes to departure, stick to something fast like a sandwich or fries and keep an eye on the screens from your seat.
Tip: If you’re in Terminal T with more than an hour before boarding, place your order at Restaurant 3 first, then log into Wi‑Fi and sort your onward plans while you wait for food.
