The IKEA Store

At IKEA, you’ll roam through displays of living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms furnished in the sleek Scandinavian style IKEA is known for. Once you’ve found the perfect piece of furniture, just walk over to the warehouse section and add it to your cart.

And IKEA doesn’t just sell furniture. You can also stock up on European delicacies in their Swedish Food Market, snag some cool outdoor accessories, or stock your kitchen with brand new pots and pans. You’ll find everything from bedding and wall art to light fixtures and a new kitchen sink.

IKEA is also family-friendly, offering children's play areas, baby care rooms, shopping strollers, family parking, and more.

The IKEA Restaurant

After all that shopping, relax and recharge at the IKEA Restaurant and Cafe, which overlooks the runway of Newark Liberty International Airport. Here you can sample delicious Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam or enjoy a cup of coffee. 

Like the rest of IKEA, the restaurant is family-friendly and offers a play area, microwaves for warming food and bottles, and high chairs. It also offers a selection of kids meals, including organic food options.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy your meal while delighting in the incredible sight of planes taking off and landing.
