How early to get food at Airport on a Sunday?

I can't find info on the Sav/HH airport website about opening times for the food venues past Security. Our daughter and two young grandsons will be heading back home on a Sunday from Sav with an 8am flight and I'm wondering where they can get something to eat. We'll be giving them stuff like granola bars but does anyone know when something might open up on a Sunday morning? Thanks!

At Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport (SAV), food options inside security can be a bit limited early in the morning, especially on Sundays. However, most of the restaurants and cafes open a couple of hours before the first flights, which usually means around 5:00 AM to 5:30 AM for passengers with early morning flights.

Here’s a breakdown of some of the options that might be available for your daughter and grandsons to grab something to eat before their 8:00 AM flight:

  • The Market by Whole Foods – Typically, this place opens around 5:30 AM, offering a selection of snacks, sandwiches, and other quick bites. It’s located post-security and would be a good spot to grab breakfast options like muffins, fruit, or other light snacks.
  • Starbucks – Starbucks also usually opens early (around 5:00 AM), and they offer a variety of breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and coffee. It’s a reliable choice if you’re looking for a quick, familiar option for the kids and adults alike.
  • Chick-fil-A – If your family enjoys Chick-fil-A, they also have a location in the airport that generally opens around 5:30 AM. They offer breakfast sandwiches and chicken biscuits, which could be a hit with the grandkids.

It's a good idea to arrive at the airport a little earlier to ensure enough time to get food, as food venues inside the airport can get busier closer to flight times, especially on Sundays. If you’re looking to avoid the lines or rush, it’s best to aim to get through security a bit early and have your pick of the open options.

Since you’re also planning to pack granola bars, this could be a good backup option just in case the food venues aren't fully open by the time they need to eat. Safe travels!
