Restaurant chain PF Chang's has opened a restaurant at Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla Guadalajara International Airport (GDL) in Mexico, with Alsea serving as its franchise partner.

This is PF Chang's first airport location in Mexico and its 29th restaurant in the country.

The brand now has five franchise locations in major airports worldwide, and aims to offer travellers a Pan-Asian dining experience.

In 2023, the brand launched restaurants at Reagan National Airport (DCA) and Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) in the US, with Master ConcessionAire as its franchise partner.

In the same year, the brand opened its outlet at Kempegowda International Airport (BLR) in Bengaluru, India, with HMSHost as its franchise partner.

The brand’s expansion continued in June 2024 with the inauguration of a location at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), with Concessions International serving as the franchise partner.

Most PF Chang's airport locations offer breakfast options catering to early morning travellers, as well as a grab 'n' go component for those with time constraints.

The restaurant brand has signed a letter of intent with Four Leaf Ventures to launch a new venue at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) in Terminal A. This location will open in 2025.

PF Chang's global brand development and retail vice-president Rafik Farouk said: “I always tell people what separates our delicious offerings from others at the airport is that we bring the renowned PF Chang's excellence to our airport restaurants.

“We don't sacrifice freshness or service because we are accommodating for speed in an airport model; we evolve to maintain the quality our customers know and expect from the brand while providing a successful, efficient model for our operators.

“Our guests expect the high-quality food, Pan-Asian variety and high-end service at our airports just as they do at any of our other locations, and that's what we deliver at every airport, in any country, breakfast, lunch and dinner.”
