Tailwind Concessions
5235 Portage Rd, Portage, MI
Crema's Take
“Tailwind Concessions leans into a casual airport vibe with an unexpectedly ambitious menu that swings from craft beers and creative cocktails to surprisingly solid pizza and fresh salads. The experience here is hit-or-miss—you might land a genuinely attentive staff member like Kevin who makes your visit memorable, or find yourself waiting for attention while others get seated first. If you're willing to embrace the inconsistency and approach it as a fun food discovery spot rather than expecting polished service, there are real gems here, especially if you're craving something more interesting than typical terminal fare.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Quick-grab spot. Light food on the menu.

They have several beers with a few that are not known. If you ask to try a sample Ashley sternly addresses you like your asking for a free beer. At $11.25 a beer you would think they can let you try it. Ashley needs some training on how NOT to talk down to people.
Kevin the Manager is awesome 👏🏽 thank you man Aye y’all definitely go check out their menu. They have some great pizza‼️ also shout out to both My Boys Savion and Greg for being great workers and servers‼️
Awful service. I sat at the bar for 5 mins with both servers walking past me. And not saying a word finally someone said I will be with you in a minute. But 2 gentlemen sat down and were served immediately. The food was awful. I got the “home-made”buttermilk tenders and fries…
I had the crispy chicken salad with Bleu cheese dressing for $16.50. It was quite a large salad and the chicken was truly crispy! Peach mango smoothie was okay, it was weirdly bitter & not in a tangy way? Service was very friendly & might be slightly understaffed but still…
