Point the Way Café
Finding it
Point the Way Café is in Departures in Terminal 6 at Los Angeles International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
Terminal 6 has 12 places to eat and 9 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 4:15am.
Hours against the security queue
Across the week, LAX security runs longest around 12pm at a median of 20 minutes, and lightest around 1am at 2 minutes.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's LAX wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
A 4 a.m. opening puts it ahead of the first wave of Terminal 6 departures, and the 11 p.m. close covers most of the last arrivals too. The pairing with Golden Road Brewing sets it apart from the California Pizza Kitchen and Club 42 Tequila Bar nearby in the same departures area — this is the spot for a full beer list rather than a tequila-focused menu or a pizza counter. As the only Point the Way Café at LAX, it's the single place in Terminal 6 built around the Golden Road partnership rather than a chain pour list.
Other options in Terminal 6
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
