10. Airbräu, MUC

Leave it to Munich to have what’s probably the sweetest bar on this list. The home of the Hofbräuhaus brings it with Airbräu, “the world’s first airport microbrewery.”

It’s located in the large open space between terminals and features an open-air beer garden that operates during the summer months.

No need to leave the airport to start the Oktoberfest festivities.

11. Frescobaldi Wine Bar, FCO

And then there’s Rome, with this upscale wine bar and restaurant. You can find it in three separate locations (Terminals 1, 2, and 3).

They’ve also got a non-airport branch at Harrods in London. That should say something about the level of class (and price) they’re going for.

12. Jet’s Bar, BZE

I had to include Jet’s in this list after reading an endearing review on nachounderpants.com.

Highlights include the fact that it’s the only bar in the Belize City International Airport, the decked-out décor, and the full-on proprietor, Mr. Jet.

Apparently, he’ll arrange for your departure gate to call him when your flight starts to board, so you can fit as many drinks (i.e., rum punches) as possible into your layover.
