About this location
GameWay opens at 5:00 AM and closes at 11:00 PM at Gate 507 on Terminal 5's level 3, two hours behind Aunt Butchie's Bakery Café's 3:00 AM start just steps away. Games and electronics fill the shelves here instead of food, the only non-dining stop in this stretch of gates. Travelers on the earliest departures will find the bakery running before GameWay opens, but by mid-morning both are open side by side. It closes well before the latest arrivals land, unlike the bakery which runs to the last flight.
One of 2 GameWay locations at John F. Kennedy International Airport (Terminal 5, Terminal 8).
