Mulberry Street: Cocktails, Queens, NYC

Located inside Terminal B, this Italian outpost offers a menu of panini, fries, and fried risotto balls alongside its bar service. The reality of stopping here, however, depends entirely on the day's execution. While some travelers find refuge in the pizza, others report depleted bar ingredients and understaffed shifts that result in slow service, stale bread, or weak espresso martinis. It remains a gamble of convenience, where the pre-flight meal can lean toward satisfying comfort food or land as a rubbery disappointment.
