I don't feel like I've ever been let down by an airport restaurant or Starbucks (not that I think about it much).

But the airport newsstands that are just someone selling candy in a room with the name of a random local newspaper are an interesting local sight.

I like airport newsstands because they remind me a tiny bit of my rare trips downtown as a kid, when there were one or two places still open that sold magazines like The Atlantic and The Economist. Such a delight at the time.
