# Luxe Airport Champagne Bars Fortnum's Has Brought Its Signature Food and Drink to Heathrow Airport By Rebecca Byers | Published 2015-10-21 | Business Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnums References: [restaurantandbardesignawards](http://restaurantandbardesignawards.com/2015/entries/fortnum-mason-champagne-bar) & [swankism](https://swankism.com/2015/08/best-international-airports-for-layovers-2015/) Fortnum's at [Terminal 5](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airport-shop) is a recently opened shop and bar from the iconic British brand known for its hampers of high-quality food, drink and gifts. Adding to the variety of elaborate and luxurious amenities that Heathrow Airport travelers have to choose from, the [champagne bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greggs-champagne-bar) serves up a menu of gourmet fare that includes crumpets, caviar, charcuterie, shellfish and more. Travelers also have a hefty menu of champagnes, wines, cocktails, spirits and Fortnum's classic range of coffee and tea to sort through. Particularly noted for its elegant island bar, Fortnum's at Terminal 5 is located among the [high end shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnum-and-mason-1) that populate the posh terminal. A much fancier way to grab a bite before a flight, Fortnum's deliberately creates light menu items that will serve passengers well. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 72% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [Retail](https://www.trendhunter.com/retail) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxury Airport Dining:** Opportunity to offer high-quality menu options and drinks for a premium dining experience at airports. - **Premium Beverage Selections:** Opportunity to curate unique beverage menus, including high-end champagnes and cocktails, for a sophisticated airport bar experience. - **Upscale Retail Spaces:** Opportunity to create luxury retail spaces in airports that specialize in high-end food and drink gifts and products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Airport Food and Beverage:** Businesses can capitalize on the growing demand for quality dining experiences at airports, especially in high-end terminals. - **Luxury Hospitality:** Luxury hotels and restaurant groups can expand their businesses to open high-end dining and retail spaces in airports. - **Gourmet Food and Drink:** High-end food and beverage companies can expand their retail presence to include airport locations, targeting premium travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Duty-Free Tea Stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fortnum-and-mason-dubai.md) - [Highly-Decadent Champagne Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mot-chandon2.md) - [Airport Terminal Activewear Shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lululemon-heathrow-terminal-5.md) - [Luxury Whisky Boutiques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/west-coast-flagship.md) - [Stylish Airport Lounges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-clubhouse.md) - [Parisian Airport Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moet-hennessys-paris-concept.md) - [Luxury Airport Retail Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiphol-airport-1.md) - [Major International Airport Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popups-at-airport-hubs.md) - [Luxe Airline Cafe Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-canada-caf.md)
