Three minutes from check-in, Le Comptoir des Saveurs is one of the few sit-down options in Strasbourg Airport’s public hall. It sits landside before security, so you can eat with anyone not flying, then head to screening in under 5–10 minutes. The place carries a harsh 1-star average rating, so set expectations more “quick fuel stop” than “destination bistro.”
Opening hours usually track the first and last departures, so count on roughly 06:00 to early evening on standard weekday schedules. Late-night delays out of SXB often leave the restaurant closed, so if your flight pushes past 20:00, grab something earlier. Prices run airport-normal: a basic coffee around €2–3 and soft drinks close to €3–4, with hot dishes jumping into the low-teens per plate.
Menu focus is French-leaning café fare: think simple sandwiches, quiches, and reheated plat du jour rather than anything ambitious. Expect a croque-monsieur or ham-and-cheese baguette in the €6–8 bracket, with desserts like tart slices around €4–5. The 1-star rating suggests hit-or-miss freshness, so if you’re picky, stick to prepackaged items with visible dates over anything that looks like it has been sitting under a heat lamp.
Service at Le Comptoir des Saveurs runs on a minimal staffing model, often just one person handling both counter and tables. At typical morning waves tied to business flights, a simple order can stretch to 15–20 minutes. This matters at SXB because security occasionally bunches up when two departures sit within the same 45-minute window. Time your sit-down meal when the departure boards show a gap, not when a cluster of flights is closing in.
- Tip: If your boarding pass prints with a tight 45–60 minute window, skip hot dishes here and grab a coffee plus packaged snack, then clear security first and wait at the gate.
