PHX Perspective

Healthy Food Choices Abound at Sky Harbor

Traveling through PHX Sky Harbor and concerned about eating healthy? Not to worry, PHX Sky Harbor was recently voted the third best airport in the country for healthy food options by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) in their annual Airport Food Review. PHX has also been named in the past by Health magazine as America’s Healthiest Airport for a variety of healthy food choices. But just what exactly are some of the healthy options available to travelers?

Paradise Bakery which has a location in each terminal at Sky Harbor offers tasty salad and fruit options as well as low-fat muffins available in raspberry, blueberry and lemon poppy seed. But if you want to splurge, they do have their delicious cookies available in many varieties. Chili’s, located in Terminal 4, offers several guiltless salads as well as a Boca veggie burger. Customers can also request grilled chicken instead of fried.

Other healthy options include a veggie burger at Roadhouse 66, a veggie burrito at Oaxaca, avocado cucumber sushi rolls and edamame at Yoshi’s Asian Grill, a Portobello mushroom and red pepper sandwich from the Home Turf Bar, or grilled chicken instead of fried at Flo’s Shanghai Café. These restaurants are all located in Terminal 4.
