Located inside Cleveland Hopkins Airport, this venue offers a vibrant and dynamic working environment where culinary excellence meets the fast-paced demands of airport dining. 8006 Woodfired Kitchen operates under the banner of United Concessions Group (UCG), a family-owned and operated business since 1979, known for managing popular food spots within CLE Airport.
