Every place to eat and shop on SEA's D Concourse and D Annex by gate, with listed hours, what opens before 4 a.m. and what's near Gates D21 to D26.

Most D Concourse meals sit on the main concourse between Gates D3 and D7. For coffee, Starbucks on D is at D2. You can buy sandwiches and snacks at Urban Market at D2, or travel supplies at Hudson at D6. All of these places are past security. The D Annex has another Hudson at D22, but most meal choices aren’t there. They’re on the main D Concourse.

Gates D21–D26 are in the D Annex, reached from the main concourse across from D5. The Port of Seattle says you cross a bridge into the annex, then may take a shuttle from the gate to an aircraft parked away from the building, so check your boarding time before ordering. Our D Concourse guide shows the gate layout.

Early flight, late flight or a tight connection

Starbucks on D and Urban Market at D2 open at 3:30 a.m., as does Hudson at D6, which sells travel supplies. Camden food co. and the Hudson at D22 open at 4:30 a.m.

Hudson at D6 stays open until midnight, after Ballard Brew Hall and Starbucks on D close at 11 p.m. For food after the D restaurants close, the Central Terminal listings include Dilettante Chocolates & Mocha Cafe and Starbucks with all-day hours.

The N Concourse needs the Green Line train from D Station, across from D2, so buy on D first if you’re on a short connection. If you haven’t screened yet, Checkpoints 5 and 6 are closest to the D gates, though the Port of Seattle says any checkpoint gives access to every gate. Checkpoint 5 is listed from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Checkpoint 6 from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Lounge, water, charging and kids

The Alaska Lounge near Gate D1 is open daily 5 a.m.–11 p.m. and sells a $65 day pass when space is available. Water refill stations are by Gates D1, D3 and D5, in the D Annex and by Gate D21. An ATM is by Gate D2. Charging stations are by Gates D3, D4, D5, D7 and D8, and by Gates D21, D22, D23, D24 and D26 in the annex.
