SLC International Airport (Squatters and Wasatch)

Awesome places to get a well made craft beer prior to flying. Squatters is much bigger, and you can actually get a seat. Good pub food, and about 10 beers, including specials, on tap. I actually got a rating out of the airport, awesome!

Wasatch is located in Terminal D, while Squatters in in Terminal C. Squatters is the one to visit... Wasatch has two of their own taps (Polygamy Porter is one of them), plus a light macro lager, and it’s a small pub with limited seating and a short bar. Squatters, on the other hand, is actually a large airport pub, and they have 8-9 draft selections of their own, plus 1-2 Wasatch taps (also Polygamy porter). I had the Hop Head Red on nitro at the pub, and noticed a decent lineup overall: oatmeal stout, pale ale, pilsner, and more, and the IPA was available in bottles. Funny thing is I visited this pub about 5 years ago and never knew it was on Ratebeer until I flew through SLC again in 2008.

This rating is for Squatter’s Pub in the airport. This was a nice, cozy bar that I really needed when I flew through here. The beer and food were both solid, with the requisite airport prices that you cannot fault them for. I recommend stopping by if you’re flying through.

Pretty good for an airport bar. Not a bad place to have a 5 hour layover in. Had most of the basic beers on tap, food was expensive though. Then again it is in the airport. If you have some time to kill in the Utah airport stop by.

Pretty good for an airport in a state that is hardly known for being quality. Wasatch lacked selection when I was there, but Squatters actually had quite a few on. Good quality... there are much worse airports to spend an afternoon... like any airport in Canada.

The selection at Squatters is more varied, but Watsatch beers are good, so get some exercise and imbibe at both.

Wasatch beers are slightly better, but if you’re hungry go to Squatter’s for food and the inconsequentially lesser beer.

Tried both the Squatters pub and the Wasatch pub. Nice for an airport, especially since my 45 min layover turned into 2.5 hours. Grabbed a couple of Wasatch beers at that pub, then had a beer sampler and pizza at Squatters. If you happen to be flying through and have time for only one place, Squatters is the preferable one.

For utah, the squatters pub and grill in the airport is one of the best places to go in the whole city, but you have to have a ticket just to getr there, oh well. Lots of beer on tap and the IPA is actually decent.

After doing my rounds of this airport, there’s really 2 places that are worth noting. Squatters Pub and Grill, on concource C and the Wasatch pub in concource D (I think). The squatters pub actually had about 9 things on tap along with the polygamy porter and provo girl pils. The wasatch pub had only those 2 and was more of a bar, not a restaurant. Anyways, that’s about it. Good luck.
