It’s average like every other cafe in a airport. The service is fast, and rushed a little bit. The food is high priced for small portions, where other airport cafes around the US give slightly larger portions. Once again it’s a good thing to have in a small airport as it adds key values. The good didn’t taste the best. Atmosphere is like watching a parked plane and people working down there.

Gets the job done for pre-flight snacks. Wait times can be excessive. There could be more outdoor seating as well. Had a bagel here once which was rock hard. Employee was very apologetic and replaced it.

This place is located inside the airport after security check in. It serves breakfast all day and offers a variety of lunch options including sandwiches, panini's, pizzas, burgers and salads. The grilled buffalo chicken wrap was pretty dry - I'd recommend asking for a side sauce. I'd also give yourself 20 minutes for your food order. Seating is pretty limited and ideal for 1-2 people. There is additional seating just outside the Cafe where there is room for 4 or more. This place is connected to The Junction (a bar) and food can be ordered from the bar. The Cafe offers a variety of drinks and snacks.

It’s a solid choice for a fast and good breakfast, lunch or snack at the Daytona airport. Breakfast is served all day! The tuna sandwich (ask for toasted bread) was excellent! Prices are actually reasonable for an airport “restaurant”....it’s more of a snack bar. It’s small but was not crowded. There is limited seating there but it right next to Gate 4 so there was no issue sitting down to eat! VictorB

I believe this is the junction Cafe in the airport at Daytona Beach international it's the only venue sit down restaurant so what can I say except that it seems like there's a bar and a counter at the front that serves the food. Little bit confusing but adequate.

Typical unhealthy airport food ( pizza, burgers, sandwiches etc). Very impressed with the service and professionalism. Just two guys working- one at register, the other cooking. There was a large crowd of customers due to flight delays. They were very polite, efficient, and helpful. Good service in rush time is difficult to accomplish!
