"The first LaTrelle's airport location was in Hobby Airport. There, in just 350 square feet, we sold our grandmother's recipes," said Chris James, Business Development Director of LaTrelle's. "Our family all worked there. To grow from that to now overseeing and operating this 17,000-square-foot, multi-brand initiative is such a proud moment for LaTrelle's. We are still a small, family-operated business--and historically, projects of this scope have gone to larger corporations. But we work hard, every single day, inspired by one another and our city." 

Key Points: 
  • Food and beverage service will be uninterrupted at the airport as renovations are carried out in phases, ensuring travelers have myriad dependable dining options every step of the way.
  • LaTrelle's soon added the first airport Wendy's and Subway in the country to its Hobby Airport portfolio.
  • "The first LaTrelle's airport location was in Hobby Airport.
  • We put together a proposal that aims to do right by our restaurant operators and the airport alike--everyone wins.
