Barney's Beanery
Finding it
Barney's Beanery is in Departures in Terminal 2 at Los Angeles International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
Terminal 2 has 9 places to eat and 6 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 3:30am.
Hours against the security queue
Barney's Beanery opens at 5am and closes at 12am. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical LAX checkpoint queue at 9 minutes around 5am.
Across the week, LAX security runs longest around 12pm at a median of 20 minutes, and lightest around 1am at 2 minutes. This location is already open before those queues build.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's LAX wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
This Terminal 2 gastropub keeps hours from 5am to midnight, bracketing it around the terminal's earliest and latest departures alongside BUILT Custom Burgers, Fresh Brothers Pizza and Jersey Mike's. Of that group, it's the one built around bar seating and a full food menu rather than counter service, a distinction its neighbors don't share. LAX has no second Barney's Beanery, so the roadhouse decor and sports-bar setup here doesn't repeat anywhere else in the terminal system.
Other options in Terminal 2
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
