Sunset Loop Bar & Grill is a new concept that was created specifically for the Denver International Airport and it will introduce a new farm-to-terminal dining experience. The Sunset Loop Bar & Grill will offer an expansive, 67-foot-long market so that travelers can pick up locally sourced products and prepared food on their journeys. With a comfortable communal seating area, guests will have the chance to meet and mingle with other travelers, all the while appreciating the sense of connection that the design provides.
The Sunset Loop Bar & Grill is one of two newly announced food and beverage concepts that will transform Denver International Airport's United Airlines Concourse B-East. This new concept celebrating Denver's culinary scene is set to open alongside a signature Starbucks with a sculptural build inspired by the natural beauty of the Colorado mountains.
