LOOK: NAIA Terminal 3 food court is now open
Passengers flying through the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 can now enjoy a more convenient dining experience as the airport’s long-awaited food court has finally opened its doors.
The airport shared a glimpse at its 6,000 square-meter Mezzanine Food Hall on its Facebook page, showing a sleek, contemporary vibe with wave-like lighting and neutral tones of cream, gray, and wood accents.
Currently, travelers can enjoy a wide variety of dining options, including Kenny Rogers, Seattle’s Best Coffee, LA Chicks, Paris Baguette, KFC, Chili’s, Nanyang, BreadTalk, and JCO Reserve.
NAIA's food choices are set to expand even further. They plan to open more restaurants this November, bringing in all-time favorites such as Mary Grace, Pancake House, Angel’s Pizza, Popeye’s, and Chowking.
Also in the mix are Banapple, Watami, Modern Shang, Mama Lou's, Marugame Udon, UCC, Estrel's, and Sans Rival.

In the comments section, many expressed their excitement at the new food court, while others offered some suggestions on additional improvements they'd like to see in NAIA's terminal.
"Good to see that there are more food options for passengers and their companions! Hoping that there will be more food options for passengers after immigration," one user said.
Another commented, "Finally, a decent place to eat before flights. Hoping 24 hours sila lahat."
According to NAIA, they will also open an all-Filipino Food Hall on Level 1 before the year ends. A so-called "Food Village" on Level 3 is also in the works for 2026.
The new food court is just one of the steps taken by the New NAIA Infra Corp. to rehabilitate the airport, which was ranked the worst airport in the world in the analysis of the Australian firm Compare the Market in 2024.
The NNIC took over the airport’s operations in September 2024 after winning the bidding in February. Their contract is 15 years and can be extended to 10 more years.
