The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and JFK Millennium Partners (JMP), the company selected to build and operate the new $4.2 billion Terminal 6 (T6) at John F. Kennedy International Airport, have added P.J. Clarke’s, For Five Coffee Roasters and Brooklyn Brewery to the terminal’s suite of dining experiences, marking the first time any of the brands will be featured with their own airport location. All three are set to open with the new terminal in 2026.
“T6 is a celebration of all things New York City”” said JFK Millennium Partners CEO Steve Thody. “It is exciting to have these beloved New York brands join T6’s other culinary selections, offering a true taste of New York to travelers from around the world.”
P.J. Clarke’s is a historic saloon-style restaurant in New York known for its classic American fare, iconic cocktails and old-school charm. Established in 1884 in New York City, its Third Avenue and East 55th Street location has long been a favorite haunt of celebrities, journalists and locals alike. As the terminal’s flagship restaurant, P.J. Clarke’s will be strategically located just steps away from all T6 gates.
For Five Coffee Roasters is a specialty coffee roaster based in New York, known for its high-quality, freshly roasted beans and modern café atmosphere. Founded by two childhood friends from Queens, the brand emphasizes premium coffee experiences and sources its beans directly from farmers worldwide. For Five Coffee Roasters’ location will be across from P.J. Clarke’s in the main concourse.
Founded in 1988 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Brooklyn Brewery is a global independent craft brewer and a pioneer of the American craft beer revolution. Nearly 40 years later, Brooklyn Brewery’s beers can be found in more than 30 states and 30 countries across five continents. Its collaboration with JFK T6 marks the first time the brewery will have its own location in an airport setting. It will be found adjacent to Di Fara Pizza and Alidoro in the T6 east food hall.
Food and beverage operator SSP America will manage P.J. Clarke’s and For Five Coffee Roasters, while JFK veteran operator M&R Concessions will manage Brooklyn Brewery.
“These iconic brands will elevate the passenger experience and add to the uniquely New York sense of place we are creating at JFK International Airport,” said Port Authority Executive Director Rick Cotton. “There is no place like New York, and these notable businesses will help Terminal 6 reflect that unique New York energy as an exciting part of travelers’ memories of their time here.”
