Travelers will soon be able to get pizza from a vending machine while traveling at San Antonio International airport.

Los Angeles-based Basil Street Café, which manufactures fully robotic vending machines for their pies, is opening its first airport locations with two kiosks at the local airport on Dec. 1.

San Antonio is such a wonderful city with a great reputation for food and customers are willing to try new things so it seemed like a natural fit for you. Our partner, Prepango, has an existing relationship with the airport so the decision was easy.” said Deglin Kenealy, CEO of Basil Street.
