Federal Donuts & Chicken was founded in 2011 by James Beard Award-winning restaurateurs Chef Michael Solomonov and Steve Cook.
The airport location will be Federal Donut's 12th store, featuring donuts, fried chicken, and coffee.
For over 40 years, Oyster House -- owned by Sam Mink -- has been a Philadelphia staple for everything seafood. The airport storefront will be its first satellite location.
Construction is already underway to build the two new storefronts as Philadelphia International Airpot is expected to have record-breaking travel in 2026 thanks to Philadelphia250, the FIFA World Cup, the MLB All-Star Game, NCAA March Madness, the PGA Championship and so much more.
