JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT OPENS BRIOCHE DORÉE

Mouth-watering pastries, European hospitality & speedy service

Santa Ana – John Wayne Airport (JWA) is pleased to announce the opening of Brioche Dorée food court in the center of the Thomas F. Riley Terminal. Passengers can choose from a tantalizing variety of artfully-crafted meals and freshly baked European pastries at the new HMSHost concession.

A long-time favorite in Europe, Brioche Dorée was founded in Rennes, France in 1976 by entrepreneur Louis Le Duff. The restaurant’s menu features a broad variety of freshly made sandwiches, innovative garden salads, tasty soups and gourmet coffees. All breads and pastries are baked in full view of customers, adding theater and the aromas of your favorite French bakery.

“Our goal is to provide a pleasant travel experience for our passengers,” noted Alan L. Murphy, Airport Director. “The addition of a new European Café will satisfy the growing demand for premium quality food and enhance the high level of service our passengers have come to expect.”

Brioche Dorée is centrally located between Gate 7 and Gate 8 beyond the security check points. Hours of operation are: 5 am to 8 pm, Monday through Thursday; 5 am to 9 pm on Friday; 5 am to 7 pm on Saturday; and 6 am to 9 pm on Sunday.

John Wayne Airport is a self supporting enterprise, owned and operated by the County of Orange. The Airport served over 9.2 million passengers in 2004.
