The UK’s most-loved burrito and taco joint Tortilla has opened its doors after rolling into Glasgow Airport.
Based in the main departure lounge, the 30-seat venue includes a grab-and-go takeaway service as well as a dine-in option from its famed fully customisable and authentic California-style Mexican menu. It is operated by SSP UK, a leading operator of food and beverage outlets in travel locations and has helped create 19 new jobs at the airport.
Tortilla’s dishes are all made fresh to order, filled with fresh, quality ingredients such as their marinated proteins, hand-smashed guacamole and fresh salsas. Customers choose what goes inside their dish, from burritos, naked burrito bowls, salads and tacos to quesadillas and nachos – for a treat.
Glaswegians will already be familiar with Tortilla thanks to the brand’s local spot in the city’s Silverburn shopping centre.
Tortilla is the first Mexican-style eatery at the airport and is expected to be a huge hit with passengers as they head off on their travels.
Craig Norton, Head of Retail Development at AGS Airports, said: “We are thrilled to be partnering with SSP on the launch of Tortilla. This new venue will further enhance our food and beverage options here at Glasgow Airport with a cuisine we know our customers are looking for during their travels. The Tortilla brand has continuously grown year after year and I am sure the colourful and bursting-with-flavour menu items will be a hit with our customers.”
Andy Naylor, CEO at Tortilla commented: “We are excited to be opening our third airport location with SSP. Glaswegians will already know our brand from our location in the city centre, but this will allow them to enjoy some of our delicious Mexican food before jetting off to their next destination.”
Richard Attwood, Business Development Director of SSP UK & Ireland, said: “We’re thrilled to be bringing Tortilla to a Scottish airport for the first time and extending our partnership with both Glasgow Airport and Tortilla. We aim to be the best part of the journey and this includes offering customers more choice every time they fly.”
