BUILT Custom Burgers
Finding it
BUILT Custom Burgers 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
BUILT Custom Burgers opens at 5am and closes at 10:30pm. 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
Departures at Terminal 2 gets its counter-order burger stop at 5am, running through 10:30pm, later than the Jersey Mike's and Fresh Brothers Pizza it sits near. The build-your-own format, a base patty plus a la carte toppings, is the only one of its kind among the terminal's dining row, most of which run fixed menus. Terminal 2 has just this one location; a traveler wanting the same build-your-own format elsewhere at LAX won't find it.
