The restaurant currently operates as ?Throttle Back Caf??. The restaurant facility (dining area) is approximately 624 square feet and will seat 36 to 40 customers at 9 tables. The kitchen area contains the following equipment: industrial grade refrigerator, industrial grade freezer, oven with 8 burners (propane), 3 sinks, ice maker, Frymaster deep fryer, and gas-powered grill.
A meeting room of approximately 484 square feet is located adjacent to the Restaurant.

Approximately 50 airplanes land and take off daily at the Airport, and Suffolk Skydiving Club operates out of the Airport every weekend of the year.
