SAT3 has had some small works done in the last 2-3 years. 3 gates have been given a face lift. 43, 48 and 50. Plus the bar/restaurant here has been renovated to.
Thanks for the heads up! The press release on the STN website is quite misleading, as it mentions this: "The upgrade not only boosts the choice of bars, restaurants and retail outlets on offer
but also provides additional seating for passengers in the central area of the lounge"
Speaking of upgrades, does anyone have an updated list of the restaurants/cafes at STN following the refurb? The STN webpage hasn't been fully updated, and lists James Martin Kitchen, which I think has been closed permanently now, alongside Giraffe - again, unsure if they're still at STN? I think StarBucks has definitely gone, replaced by Cafe Nero, and I'm unsure whether Not Always Caviar is still in the terminal?
