Concessionaire Baldi Management Group has opened an airport outpost of a popular D.C.-based eatery at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). Colada Shop offers travelers traditional Cuban fare, including its signature sandwiches, pastelitos, croquetas and its namesake coladas.
“We are thrilled to introduce Colada Shop to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport,” said Edie Ames, CEO of BMG. “This opening represents an exciting opportunity to share these bold flavors with travelers looking for an authentic and memorable experience, while expanding our presence in one of the region’s most dynamic travel hubs.”
“This would not have been possible without the support, collaboration, and partnership of Fraport Washington Partnership and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority throughout the development and opening of this location. Their commitment to enhancing the passenger experience at DCA has been instrumental in bringing Colada Shop to life at the airport,” added Stephen Baldi, executive chairman of BMG.
“The new Colada Shop at DCA has received an overwhelmingly positive response, exceeding our expectations,” said Alyson Murphy, vice president of Fraport Washington Partnership. “We would like to express our gratitude to the BMG team, MWAA, and the founder and CEO, Daniella Senior, for their collaborative efforts in creating an authentic experience that has delighted both travelers and employees. This partnership brings the vibrant flavors of Cuban cuisine, coffee, and cocktails to the airport, enhancing the overall dining experience.”
