At the same time, service is often described as quick for an airport canteen. If you are short on time, it is sensible to allow a little extra before boarding.
Does La Cantina have outdoor seating, and is there anything to note?
Yes, reviews mention outdoor seating, including tables outside by the street. For summer, some guests noted mosquitoes there, and a few mentioned bird droppings in the outdoor area. If you want to sit outside, it can be useful to keep an indoor option in mind depending on the time of day. Being outside the terminal makes the outdoor area practical for a short break.
