HMSHost Partners with Guy Fieri and SanTan Spirits to Bring New Dining Experiences to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport

A toast to the tastes that make Phoenix a unique culinary destination, the arrival of Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Kitchen+Bar and SanTan Spirit House elevates the food & beverage offerings at Sky Harbor

BETHESDA, Maryland (Oct. 8, 2025) – Global restaurateur HMSHost, part of Avolta AG (SIX: AVOL) and a world leader in creating dining for travel venues, celebrated the debut of two locally inspired dining venues at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX): Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Kitchen+Bar and SanTan Spirit House.

The new restaurants, both located in Sky Harbor’s new Eighth Concourse in Terminal 4, are part of a 10-year contract awarded last year that grows HMSHost’s footprint at PHX to nearly 25 restaurants and bars.

Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Kitchen+Bar seats over 100 guests across nearly 3,300 ft² and offers an extensive menu from the celebrity chef and host of “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.” Travelers can sample fan favorites from Fieri, like “Big Bite Burgers,” “Trash Can Nachos,” “Mötley Qüe” pulled pork sandwiches, signature pizzas, and more, along with breakfast items and convenient Grab & Go options.

The restaurant also features handcrafted cocktails, wine, local craft beers, and Santo Tequila, a collaboration between Fieri and Rock & Roll legend Sammy Hagar. Popular libations range from Guy’s Famous BBQ Bloody Mary to his Caliente Margarita.

SanTan Spirit House at PHX is housed in a 1,300 ft² speakeasy-style space that seats 52, and offers travelers innovative, modern cocktails crafted by award-winning mixologist Natasha Hill, showcasing products available only at the Sky Harbor bar and SanTan’s Chandler, Arizona, restaurant: Spirit House Kitchen & Cocktails. The restaurant has a full bar serving SanTan’s signature spirits, tasting flights, draft beer, and creative cocktails, like “Jake from State Farm” and “CaraMellow Macchiato.” The restaurant also offers an all-day menu featuring shareables, sandwiches, and flatbread pizzas, and a breakfast menu, with items like chicken and waffles

SanTan Spirit House at Sky Harbor is uniquely Arizona as an outpost of local favorite SanTan Brewing Company — the state’s largest, independently owned brewery and distillery — further strengthening the sense of place in Terminal 4. This marks the company’s second concept at Sky Harbor in partnership with HMSHost. SanTan Brewing Co. opened in 2019 in Terminal 3 and recently was voted one of the “2025 Best of the Valley Food & Drink: Sky Harbor Eats” in PHOENIX magazine.

Digital engagement will be an essential part of these new dining venues, with in-store technology such as QR code order and pay, self-order kiosks, and computer vision self-checkout, allowing for greater convenience and speed. Travelers will also be able to enjoy all the benefits of the Club Avolta loyalty program, gaining access to exclusive offers, rewards, and cross-promotions.

“We value our longstanding partnership with Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and are very proud to bring Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Kitchen+Bar and SanTan Spirit House to life, both of which are poised to make the traveler’s journey an even more memorable one,” Steve Johnson, President and CEO, North America, Avolta. “These world-class venues are culinary gems that reflect the unique flavors and exciting vibe of the region. Travelers will appreciate the elevated dining experiences at both restaurants and the beautiful spaces in which they can relax and enjoy a great meal.”

“We’re excited to welcome Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Kitchen+Bar and SanTan Spirit House to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport,” said Aviation Director Chad Makovsky. “These restaurants will showcase our region’s flavors and creativity, and by bringing in locally inspired concepts, we’re not only elevating the dining experience for our passengers but providing them with the opportunity to discover something new and memorable while traveling.”
