Ruta Maya is an Austin-based coffee company that imports 100 percent organic Arabica coffee beans shade-grown by a cooperative of farmers in Chiapas, Mexico.

Paradies Lagardère opened two new concepts near Austin–Bergstrom International Airport’s (AUS) Gate 18. ThunderCloud Subs and Ruta Maya are beloved local brands that will introduce a bit of Austin’s flavor and culture to visitors at the city’s airport.

The restaurant and coffee shop are the first of seven new dining spots Paradies Lagardère will open in AUS. Local favorites such as Second Bar + Kitchen, Departure Lounge and Berry Austin will also be offered to passengers.

“Paradies Lagardère tailors brands to entice travelers in a variety of ways, including bringing the familiar quality, taste and atmosphere of a favorite local dining spot into an airport,” said Bill Casey, senior vice president, Food and Beverage, Paradies Lagardère. “ThunderCloud Subs and Ruta Maya will not only appeal to locals coming through the airport, but introduce a bit of what makes Austin special to visitors.”
