Smashburger Lands at IAH’s New Terminal B North

HOUSTON, October 22, 2026 - A better burger has landed at George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

Smashburger® opens October 22, 2026, at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), bringing its distinctive made-to-order Smash® and a menu built for travelers to the new Terminal B North Concourse.

The difference starts with the beef. Smashburger uses Certified Angus Beef®, and that name has to be earned. To qualify, the beef must be USDA Choice or Prime and meet 10 science-based quality standards covering marbling, maturity, size, muscling and appearance. The result is beef selected for flavor, tenderness and juiciness.

Then we put it to work. Each patty hits the grill using our signature smashing technique, creating the caramelized sear, texture and bold beefy flavor that make a Smash® unmistakable.
High standards in. Serious flavor out. No shortcuts.

A Menu Made for Takeoff

Travel days don't all look the same. Neither does the Smashburger menu at IAH. Terminal B North travelers can choose from Smashburgers, a vegetarian option, Big Dogs, chicken, breakfast, signature sides and hand-spun shakes.

Breakfast Before Boarding

Early flight? We've got that covered, too.

• For breakfast on the move, there's also a lineup of wraps with crispy tots built right in. Choose from the Loaded AM Burger, Bacon Sunrise, Sausage Sunrise or Cheesy Tot Scramble.

Signature Sides and Hand-Spun Shakes

For something sweeter, grab a hand-spun shake made with Häagen-Dazs® ice cream, available in Oreo® Cookies & Cream, chocolate, vanilla and strawberry.

Because grabbing a meal before a flight shouldn't mean settling for ordinary.

Bringing the Smash® to Terminal B North

Smashburger arrives at IAH as Terminal B North begins welcoming travelers as part of a major expansion at the Houston airport.

New terminal. Same standards.

We make Smashburgers to order. We start with Certified Angus Beef® selected against exacting quality standards. Then we bring that same attention to the rest of the menu, from Big Dogs and chicken to breakfast, signature sides and hand-spun shakes.

It's what we believe food should do: deliver proof, not promises.

During Terminal B North's initial opening period, Smashburger will operate from 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Hours will change as the terminal moves toward its full opening.

So whether Houston is home, your connection or the beginning of somewhere new, make your next stop count.

Flying through IAH? Come hungry.
