    Available through priority pass the Aspire Lounge is one the best of its kind. From the layout and…read morevaried seating options to tarmac views the scene is nice while food is good, especially the ratatouille. Service from Veronica was an added bonus. She's better than some of the Michelin star staff in London!

Reason being relative to the amount of traffic this terminal gets, the lounge capacity is very limited. The waitlist can be up 45+ minutes and it's not guaranteed that everyone on the waitlist can enter before they need to board their flight. This time it appeared they were giving some priority to people who had to board sooner as long as I was willing to share a table with another customer. In this lounge the staff assign seats to each customer which isn't something you usually see, though made sense based on the small size. Since I had only about 15 minutes prior to boarding time I wasn't choosy about comfort, really just wanted to grab a quick breakfast prior to getting on the flight, so this was fine by me. There's a small bar with breakfast selection of the day being "English breakfast" items: scrambled eggs, baked beans, crispy bacon, sausage. They also had some fruit/veg juices, pancakes (via a nifty little pancake machine), a bar with limited alcoholic drinks, and regular coffee/tea options. Functional enough for a quick stop though less comfortable than some other international lounges in terms of space, but still better than many lounges in the US when comparing quality of food.

    It takes a bit of a walk and a few escalators to get to the British Airways First Class Lounge, but…read moreit is absolutely worth it. This lounge has the space as in a huge area, the relaxed vibe, the very comfortable chairs and sofas to make this the perfect stop and break when taking that 15-20 hour flight to Asia with the one stop in London. Well this stop is the best. The team here is outstanding. They have a greeter 30 feet outside the entrance. There have always been 3 staff members at the check in which is in seconds. Love the selection and top shelf beverage and wine variety. Really love the ice cream cart. Get a genuine and full English breakfast here. The handy QR codes make it so easy and convenient to order and instantly receive food, drinks and amenities right at one's seat. Enjoy the ultimate shopping experience as you jump on the " Reserve and Collect" computers to reserve and shop from any store or boutique at the airport. All this while checking out the sun teasing with a ten second appearance and the planes entering and exiting the gates a few hundred feet away The team here keeps the buffet stocked and picks up used plates in a jiffy. The sad part is leaving after settling into that beautiful LazyBoy armchair and hopping on the sometimes crowded elevator( excuse me lift) as the escalators going down are temporarily out. First Class all the way.

    This lounge is accessible with oneworld emerald status. There is also a dedicated security area…read morethat leads directly into the lounge, which is great because theres no line at all. The lounge itself has plenty of seating all over the place. A full bar centrally located and a dining area with plenty of eating options. I was there during dinner hours, I didnt find the food to be anything special, but it was def better than whatever will be served on a plane. Be aware that this terminal is massive with its own train connecting 3 diff areas. So your flight might be up to 15-20 journey from the lounge if its in a far away gate. Would def recommend this lounge if you have access!

All healthy and delicious! It's like a very fancy and pricey restaurant with 5 star food quality and service. Amazing ambience, meditation pods available too. Iced matcha latte with soy milk was amazing. My server was really good, smashed fresh avocado on a sourdough bread minus eggs and sour cream was a delight ! Parantha with chickpeas and green moon sprouts were super good and healthy. Love it

Lots of seating options. During certain windows, the lounge can get quite crowded. I was able to find a cosy nook during my visits. As with their other lounges, each table has a QR code menu to place orders and the items in the menu changes based on the time of the day you are in. During my morning visit, I ordered a mocha, eggs royale (smoked salmon benedict) and a green juice. During late afternoon, they offered high tea and I was pleasantly surprised by the huge basket with sandwiches, quiche, scones and pastries. Each of their food items and beverages were exceptionally good. I also used the showers which was well maintained. The bathrooms are also individually designed allowing privacy and space to freshen up, change etc.

    The Concorde Room is a nice lounge. There were aspects of it that were luxurious, but then there…read morewere certain things that made it feel less exclusive. It's a lounge for First British Airways customers located in Terminal 5 at London Heathrow. The most premium feature of our visit was being able to dine in the private pre-flight dining booths. This is basically a restaurant-type experience. The food (we ate breakfast) was good and the high partitions in the dining area gave a nice sense of privacy. The service was top-notch and this was the best part of visiting The Concorde Room. After eating, we camped out in the lounge for what was thought to be about an hour, but turned into 3 hours with multiple flight delays. Good news is that the lounge is nice and does offer some outdoor dining as well, so there was plenty of natural light, but the lounge could've benefited from more partitions and more privacy. The decor is fine, but lacked the elevation and sophistication of other first class lounge products. The part where The Concorde Room loses a star is in the bathrooms. They are rather small, gender-neutral restrooms with poor lighting and they really felt like something you would've seen in just a regular terminal. Nothing luxurious about the restrooms whatsoever. Overall, The Concorde Room definitely delivers in the dining realm, but loses its luxury focus in other aspects of its execution.

    We had a fantastic layover in the Concorde Room in LHR when flying BA. The staff was very kind &…read moreaccommodating, and we appreciated the "priority" for a shower that this stay conveyed. The food & bar were top notch an seating possibilities very comfortable. Highly recommended!

I love how the Picadilly line drops me off directly at Terminal 5, although it took me a couple tries to get on board a train that stops at Terminal 5! The priority security is helpful for premium cabin passengers although the rules at the airport weren't clear. For example, I was scolded for wearing my belt while it seemed that liquids up to 2L were permitted?!? The walk and tram to the B gates is misleadingly quite far, probably a 15-20 minute walk/ride. There are also limited food options once at the B gates, which are also extremely stuffy...

It has now has the added honor and distinction of being one of the cleanest, smooth, efficient, safe, nicest and happiest airports. Gone are the experiences of the 90's and that era of long lines in security and check in, long waits at baggage claim, tedious terminal transfer and traffic jams coming in and exiting. 1/29/26 - bright and happy staff at 5:50 am, immaculate and bright airport, team member standing outside the First Class Lounge welcoming and directing all, (great lounge btw with ample and spread out seating on very comfy sofas, great hot food, quality beverages and spotless bathrooms and showers); there is an ease in the air and happy folks around everywhere- the hospitality staff, the Boots, souvenir, Macallum, Rolex boutique members. There was a smooth flow despite the airport having a lot of delayed and cancelled flights coming in post storm in the US. The airport is easy to get around and there are info booths and the best part - there is an employee to assist literally every 100 feet. I also got to mail out some cards via a bright red Royal Mail box smack in the middle of Terminal 5. 5 Stars!
