At an N gate, you can get food without taking the train back to the main terminal. N19 has Bambuza if you want Vietnamese food near that end. You’ll find the train station and mezzanine on the N Concourse map.

If you’re up early, the Port of Seattle lists New Stand at N19 opening at 4 a.m. Its early-bird guide lists Pike and Pine opening at 4:15 a.m. and Emerald City Market opening at 4 a.m. Our listing gives Emerald City Market daily 4 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. after security and tags it grab and go. For breakfast or a burger at N18, try Skillet. P.F. Chang’s has Asian food in the N Concourse.

There is no Starbucks branch in the N Concourse listings. Before taking the Green Line to N, you can stop at Starbucks on C by C9, listed daily from 3 a.m. to 11 p.m., or Starbucks on D by D2, listed daily from 3:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Both are after security.

One traveler filmed a walk around the N gates and reported several storefronts closed before buying breakfast at Wendy’s. That was one person’s trip, not a change to the listed hours. If Costa Coffee at N10 is closed, Caffe Vita and Beecher’s are both listed at N11.

For gluten-free options, the directory flags Lil Woody’s at N8, Open Space Tap Room at N10, Skillet at N18, Pike and Pine and Emerald City Market. Check the menu or ask at the counter about the food you can eat. The directory also marks Bambuza at N19 and P.F. Chang’s in the N Concourse as Priority Pass restaurants. It gives no visit credit or payment rate for either, so check your Priority Pass terms before ordering.

Shops, snacks and things you forgot

Pike and Pine has books, news, electronics, gifts and toiletries, and lists an 11:30 p.m. closing time.

Need duty free? The N Concourse directory does not list a duty free store. Our duty free guide lists duty free stores at D1, A10 and S10, so buy before taking the Green Line to N if D1 is on your route. The food directory does not give menu prices for N Concourse restaurants, so check the menu at the counter before ordering.

Getting to N, and getting back for your flight

N is an airside satellite, linked to the main terminal by the SEA Underground Green Line. After security, follow signs to C Station or D Station, then ride to N Station. The platform is on Level 2. Gates and most food are on Level 5. SEA says every checkpoint gives you access to all gates. If you’re still outside the checkpoints, use our security page to choose one.

If your next flight leaves from C or D, ride the Green Line back. The A, B, C and D Concourses join on foot, but N does not. For an A or B gate, change at D Station to the Yellow Line for A Station, then follow your gate signs. You don’t need to leave the secure area to change trains.

Water refill points are marked by N1, N13 and N20, on the mezzanine and at the train platform.
