Otherwise I always look forward to stopping in here to relax and freshen up when I fly through DCA.

The best lounge experience I've ever had!…read more Unlike other lounges where you usually go grab your own food, the Capital One Landing is more like a true dining experience. When you come to your table, you scan the QR code and order from their menu. They have a variety of dishes on their breakfast and lunch/dinner menu. All of them come out in small plates. We came during breakfast but right as they switched over to lunch, so we got to try from both menus. Overall, the food was a 10/10! I think I actually liked the breakfast food more - mainly the quiche and belgian waffles with bacon. The lunch food was still pretty good too. We also got alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks that were yummy! The service was great!! The food came out within 10-15 min of ordering and there was plenty of staff serving, cleaning up dishes and pouring champagne. We actually had an accident where a glass of champagne fell and spilled everywhere, but the staff responded right away and helped clean our table and also our belongings. Will for sure be coming again in future travels!

This was my first experience at capital one landing. It's definitely a different experience than…read morethe capital one lounges that I've been to, but I've only been to the one in Vegas and Dallas. I would say this one has more table service and feels more like a restaurant. I did accidentally got ignored by one of the lady serving cold apps at the counter.

Perhaps this accident could've been avoided if there was a clear path for lines. The table services were amazing though. They were able to help make one of the coffee to go because we had to run for our flight and couldn't finish it on time.

Service was friendly and plates were cleared in a timely manner. I liked the bright interior given the large windows.

Dear reader, The…read moreCenturion Lounge at DCA is a very civilised way to begin a trip and, in my view, one of the more enjoyable airport lounges to spend time in. A number of recent reviews praise the lounge for its attractive design, comfortable seating, strong food and drink program, and thoughtful amenities, and that all feels quite fair. It is in Terminal 2 near the south security checkpoint, and the lounge's own materials describe it as a spacious, elegant place to relax, refresh, and have a cocktail before a flight. What I especially love are the wellness shots, the coffee machines, and the open bar. Those little wellness shots feel like the sort of optimistic airport decision one ought to make before boarding, and the coffee setup is genuinely excellent if one needs to become a person again before takeoff. The bar is also a very strong point in its favour. American Express highlights its curated cocktail, wine, and non-alcoholic drink selection, and that polish absolutely comes through. Everyone is also very nice, which makes a difference. Add in the comfortable atmosphere and the feeling that you can actually pause for a moment before flying, and it all makes for a thoroughly pleasant pre-flight ritual. A proper little oasis at DCA.

The lounges that I've been to have been because of travel companions. The Amex Lounge was no different! My sweet friend booked breakfast in Arlington, the Pentagon area that is what he said. When my uber picked me up, the app said I was heading to the Amex Lounge at the airport. I laughed because I thought I was eating at the airport and airport food isn't always the best. I thought our weekend was starting off odd. But I don't complain and go with the flow, so if you like it, I love it. I had my bags because we always do staycations, so with my bag in tow he meets me at the uber upon drop-off and says our dinner reservations are in Florida, hope you don't mind that's why I had you pack your bags. What a surprise. He says we have time to go to the Amex lounge to grab breakfast before we take off. I am speechless, literally speechless. We grab our tickets and head straight to the lounge. Wow! Okay so I've been to the Capital One Lounge and that was great but honestly AMEX is killing it! The food was actually really good! Bar is awesome! Everything was clean! It's newer so it's phenomenal! I've been told I need lounge access for as much as I travel. I immediately got on my phone to search to get the AMEX card, that's how nice this place was. Luckily he asked what I was doing on my phone. I said I need to be able to come here all year long so I'm going to throw the flag in and get a card. He laughed and said it would be easier just to add me to his account. And just like that, I'm a AMEX card holder! The card came in 3 business days. I'll be coming to this airport early! And will be looking forward to traveling this year to visit all the AMEX lounges. Amex is the way to go! Oh and a little life hack, our plan never works. Gods plan does! Grateful.

The NICEST and newest Admirals Club at DCA is at the E Gates!…read more I've been to the American Airlines Admirals Clubs at the C and D Gates, but the E Gates location is on a completely different level. Since the D Gate Club was closed for renovation during my visit, I decided to give the E Gate Club a try--and I definitely wasn't disappointed. This is easily the nicest and most modern Admirals Club at DCA. It's large, spacious, bright, and has a much more contemporary feel than the other clubs in the terminal. There's simply more room to spread out, which makes a big difference when the airport is busy and you're trying to escape the terminal chaos. The food selection also seemed larger than what I've seen at the other Admirals Clubs, although I suspect the actual offerings are probably pretty similar across the terminal. Either way, there were plenty of options to grab something to eat and a drink before the flight. After spending time at the C and D Gate clubs, walking into the E Gate location definitely felt like an upgrade. If you're flying American out of DCA and have access to the E Gate Admirals Club, this is definitely worth checking out. It's a substantial upgrade in terms of space, design, and overall atmosphere.

I just spent almost twenty hours here in two days due to cancellations…read more It's roomy and the staff are attentive. Cons: -Not different from other lounges but they don't change their menu. Same food as early this week and same food through the week. -coke machine sprays -for the size, limited bathroom space but only matters at busy times. Also one one side and it's a long lounge. -back room gets hot if there's son... doesn't look like there are shades Overall this is one of the better ones with plenty of power plugs and seating. I do prefer this one over the ones in Dallas and Charlotte though.

This would've been a higher rating (and more pleasant visit) if bartender (Simone) was more accommodating with my drink request. I was asked by Simone to move from one designated line to another (which placed me behind more guests). Next, I was asked for my drink order (2 classic margaritas for myself and my guest), but for some odd reason she wouldn't make both. She first responded "for who?" then asked me to have my guest pick the second drink (which I have never experienced in all the lounges I've visited throughout the country). Her tone was not only rude but uncalled for. I simply responded by accepting the one drink and returned to my seat to give the news to my guest. We were disappointed in the customer service and unwelcomed attitude by the attending bartender.

The welcoming front desk advised us to find seating in the section behind the elevators, which featured a huge fireplace, a living room-like atmosphere, and huge floor to ceiling windows looking out over the airport. On this side, there was a fridge with some fruit and yogurts, plus a drink counter with sparkling water taps, teas, and coffees. On the other side is the bar, bathrooms, more seating areas but mostly tables and chairs, and the food. So we walked back and forth from each section, but preferred that to being in the busier part. We found 4 comfortable chairs facing each other and ended up at times sitting on the rug in between playing board games. The bathrooms were pristine, and my kids loved the cherry blossom display next to the door. The food was ample, with fixing to make sandwiches with, plus soups, and lots of other items to snack on, plus granola and nut mixes, brownies and cake bites, and a coke machine that had so many options! Plus, the handmade guacamole station- the guacamole was delicious and my kids loved it. I wish there was a takeout box or two so I could have brought my children's leftover sandwiches on the plane with us. Thanks to everyone who made our visit so pleasant!

All this while things were chaotic and other travelers were frustrated and tired. He truly was a gem as he remained calm and helpful. Lounge did their best to keep things stocked but by day two they were out of Soda. This truly was a great benefit as help was readily available and we were able to get information we need to make travel choices during this trying time.
