Hey, Vegas Golden Knights fans: The next time you’re rolling through the Las Vegas airport you can go on a breakaway and grab some chicken Wingers, a Cup in Six Caprese salad or—if strictly on a liquid diet—a Medieval Mai Tai or Up All Knight Espresso Martini.

Yes, just like the team’s quest for a championship, the Knights went all-in compiling a pun-filled menu at its new restaurant and sports bar at Harry Reid International Airport.

Located near gate D52, Vegas Born Bar & Grill celebrates the city’s first and only locally born professional sports franchise. The 96-seat restaurant is decked out in VGK memorabilia with a life-size knight in armor standing guard at the entrance, a number of photos and a large wall mural depicting the team’s Stanley Cup championship in 2022-23.

Vegas Born’s menu is typical pub food. There’s the aforementioned jumbo wings, truffle cheese fries, soft pretzels, burgers and pizzas. Early morning travelers can grab breakfast sandwiches, fat three-egg omelettes or a hearty steak and eggs plate called The Captain. For those in a time crunch there’s also a grand-and-go area.

As for drinks, Golden Knights founder Bill Foley stocks the bar with his vineyard’s Foley Family Wines while craft cocktails and beers round out the offerings.

Vegas Born is open seven days a week from 5am to midnight—though you’ll of course need an airline ticket to visit.
