It's absolutely the dumbest thing ever. Someone should have thought BIG. We are in Texas and nothing here is small. If I could, I'd avoid this lounge just how busy it gets. The only reason they get stars is service is excellent! Staff is attentive and the people have been here for years. Like the one gentleman that always tries to serves us from our seats. This is the only one I know where there are people like him. Give that man a raise. He's the only reason I gave this place the stars. Food is okay. It's either a hit or miss.

During busy hours the wait can be up to 10 minutes. I recommend just leaving the lounge to use the bathroom. ~2pm: Waited for two hours to get in. The attendant at the front kept giving different times, citing the boarding of the KLM flight. This was incredibly frustrating and not even worth it, because there was no hot food and the space was mediocre. There was a quinoa salad, turkey&cheese sandwiches, cold bread rolls (with fancy butter though!), bananas, and chips. ~6am: Got in immediately and was pretty happy with the breakfast selection. There was warm toast, guacamole, sliced boiled eggs, pancakes, and an oatmeal bar. The lounge was pretty busy though, so I had to wait a while to use the bathroom. I actually slept in the lounge for an hour and it wasn't the worst. Overall, I'd recommend coming only during a time when they accept priority pass. If they say "come back later", just find another place to go to. It's not worth waiting around for.

I stopped by both KLM and Air France and the food was identical - same pasta salad, leafy salad, two sandwiches, plastic-wrapped chocolate chip cookie... The lounge prioritizes their own airline customers and offer better hot food options for their own. If you happen to get there when they're about to reopen for Priority Pass, wait in line - it get long quick! I wouldn't go out of my way to go here, but if I happened to be at the airport early and had some time to kill, it was maybe $15-20 saved in free basic food and straightforward to get to especially with the post-security air tram.

United is helping me get off to a good start!…read more 2025 was a rough, sad, devastating year for me and my family. I even lost my Yelp elite status for 2026, but that won't keep me from sharing, just makes me sad. I'm hoping for a better year in 2026...so here is my first review for the year! I am trying to put 2025 behind me and I am starting off the year with a trip. To my surprise we were blessed with an upgrade of which I am forever grateful and we got access to the Polaris Lounge. What a wonderful place to kick back and relax before a long flight! I've only been in the regular United Club up to now, and I have always been curious. They are similar, but a lot less crowded. There is plenty of cozy seating with different options from tables to lounge chairs. There is a buffet like the regular United Club, with snacks and drinks. Plus, there is a bar. In addition to the items like the regular Club, there is a sit down restaurant inside as well where you can order off a special menu if you don't want to go to the buffet (no worries, no extra cost). Moreover, just about all the seating areas have a charging station (of course, if you sit at a regular table there isn't any). The staff is super friendly from the time you check in to the time you leave. They make you feel seen and special. If you have access, I highly recommend to take advantage and relax...even for a few minutes. Thank you United for helping me to hopefully have a better year ahead.

Turned out to be a great decision. The Polaris Lounge was clean, well appointed and quieter. But, the best part was the service. Stephanie welcomed us and when I asked for some guidance, kindly explained how everything worked, where the food was, bathrooms, etc. She arranged for wheelchair service to pick us up and we found a spot to sit and relax. Unfortunately, the seats, while mid century modern beautiful were med century modern incredibly low. We did find some chairs at a table that were more comfortable Thomas helped us clean up a small mess, very graciously and professionally. He also provided additional friendly guidance but in a very helpful way. Eating was a bit of the a challenge but thankfully, every dish was labeled for potentially problematic ingredients! Awesome! All the entrees contained dairy. So, I got some salami, cranberries, sunflower seeds and roasted beans. It went well with my lame stomach and I enjoyed several servings during our multi hour wait. Jason, the chef, came out and served vegan beans and carnitas along with various fixings. He was very helpful working around dietary restrictions and friendly also. Coffee was Italian Lilly brand which makes very nice espresso. I wouldn't say we are experts but this was a very nice lounge experience! Thanks United Polaris! Life is good with a comfortable layover.

Another airport lounge review from the queen of them. The Terminal E lounge is probably the nicest…read moreUnited Club in Houston - it's certainly the most spacious. Nice views of the planes and runways. Food selections are limited - a couple of hot dishes, a couple of salads, some mini sandwiches, lemon bars and chocolate chip cookies for dessert, and the ubiquitous cheese and crackers. I tried a mini club sandwich, pasta in a creamy sauce with sausage, and dessert. Everything I tried tasted good, though I typically never eat the cheese and crackers. There are no self-serve beverages here other than water and coffee (the club in C North is the only one with a soda machine). However, soda (and alcohol, of course) were available from the friendly bartender. Despite its large size, this lounge can get crowded - all of the United Clubs in Houston do, although the E lounge is usually not as bad as the two Terminal C clubs (the C south one had a line out the door when I walked by). The first time I approached the Terminal E lounge, the classic "currently not accepting one-time passes" sign was up, but I came back about an hour later and the sign was gone and I was in. (Yes, I know I'm part of the overcrowding problem with my United Explorer card, but I mostly just have it for the Group 2 boarding. The lounge passes are just a side benefit).

This lounge is dated, furniture was old and threadbare, carpet has been there since Nixon was president, but the place was empty, the service was excellent and the food was decent. Reminded us of a family owned restaurant. The lady cooking was also refilling the buffet and she encouraged us to try her chicken. Overall a 5 star experience (for what it was, an older airport lounge). Came back at 11pm (when all the other lounges in the airport were closed) and everything that made this place nice was gone. It was crowded, the food was blah, and the service couldn't keep up with the number of guests. Also - most of the online sites are wrong.

I stopped by both and the food was actually identical - same pasta salad, leafy salad, two sandwiches, plastic-wrapped chocolate chip cookie... I think they use Amazon Alexa on the intercom to tell Priority Pass members to please exit at a certain time. The lounge prioritizes their own airline customers and offer more hot food options for their own. When the lounge is busy with their own airline customers (depending on the day's flights and delays), Priority Pass members need to leave.

Everything seem straightforward, and I didn't have to deal with baggage claim delays, which made getting out much faster. The signage was clear enough to follow without confusion, and the flow from the gate to ground transportation was pretty effcient even with other passengers arriving at the same time. Overall a simple and easy arrival back into Houston through terminal E. I would love to get this terminal each time I arrive home. Could be because we had a light passage haul even though we were on a larger craft.

This was unfortunately our worst experience at a USO location…read more Our two sons each selected chips and a sandwich. After that, our oldest politely asked if he could also have a bag of popcorn. The volunteer responded firmly, "That's enough. You guys had too much already." I was honestly surprised by the tone and response, especially since they had only taken two items each. I asked if we could simply pay for the popcorn, but she said payment wasn't the issue -- they just didn't have enough food. What confused me was that there were no posted signs explaining item limits or any guidance about restrictions. Clear communication upfront would have prevented the misunderstanding. We also asked if we could use the microwave and were told no again, which added to the frustration. We donated $25 during our visit, and when I mentioned it, we were told that donation funds cannot be used to purchase additional food. That was surprising to hear. When the shift changed, the new volunteers were very polite and welcoming. However, by that point we felt uncomfortable and chose to leave without escalating the situation. We truly appreciate what the USO does for service members and families, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. We hope this feedback helps improve communication and consistency for future visitors.

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience at baggage claim in Terminal C around 9:30 PM…read moretonight. The older woman working the baggage service desk was less than helpful and unnecessarily confrontational. When I asked for assistance regarding my checked bag after changing to an earlier flight, she told me it was "my job to know the baggage rules" and that she didn't want to help because she didn't want to risk getting fired. She stated, "United is looking for ways to fire the older people," which was both unprofessional and concerning. I'm just needing help with my families bags. She continued on and on how I should know the fine print before switching the flights and there's nothing she can do, which seemed like a cop out for being lazy. Earlier, United gate agents in SLC had asked for volunteers to move to an earlier flight due to delays out of Salt Lake City. We were told our bags would make the flight and, if not, they would be delivered. Based on that information, we agreed to switch flights. At baggage claim, instead of helping resolve the situation, she criticized how I keep my claim tickets stickers stuck on the back of my passport wallet. I store them on the back of my passport wallet (not on my passport itself), and I had to show her this after she questioned me about it saying it wasn't allowed on the passport. Why this was even a conversation I'm not sure, but I'm a seasoned traveler. I ultimately called customer service myself, and within 10 minutes they arranged luggage delivery without issue. United, if customer service is truly a priority, this is not the standard that should represent your baggage service team. Makes me want to cancel both our credit cards and fly a different airline.
