East Midlands Airport: the new Italian restaurant Terracotta opens

A new opening in the British travel retail landscape: Avolta has opened Terracotta, its new Italian restaurant inside East Midlands Airport (EMA), further strengthening its partnership with the Manchester Airports Group.

The new proprietary concept offers a contemporary reinterpretation of Italian cuisine, designed to meet the needs of an audience increasingly oriented towards relaxed and quality travel experiences. With an area of over 650 square meters and 185 seats, Terracotta is one of the main refreshment points of the airport, capable of accommodating both those who want a full meal before the flight and those who prefer a more informal stop.

The environment recalls Mediterranean atmospheres through warm materials and contemporary design details, while the presence of an open kitchen and a central bar contributes to making the space dynamic and usable in different ways. A layout designed to adapt to the different moments of the journey, accompanying passengers from the quick break to a more relaxed experience while waiting for boarding.

The opening of Terracotta marks a strategic step for Avolta, which thus consolidates the complete management of the airport's food & beverage offer. A choice that aims to ensure consistency, quality and a uniform experience throughout the passenger journey, in line with the new trends in the airport sector.

For East Midlands airport, the new restaurant represents a key step in the development of the commercial area: the goal is to encourage longer stay times and greater interaction with the services available, enhancing the overall experience at the airport.
