    Tulsa International Airport has just opened its first premium lounge, the Escape Lounge. Access is available through various ways - credit card programs, Priority Pass membership, and likekly other eligibility. It is located right next to security - literally to the left of security once you pass through TSA. The downside to the location is that the nearest restrooms are at the far end of each wing leading to either Concourse A or B. There is no restroom in the Escape Lounge. The day we entered, the Escape Lounge was under a "soft opening" as they do not have their liquor license yet. However, it appeared full food options were available, unless we were unaware of any future offerings. Food options were buffet style and included charcuterie, a few salads, cold sandwiches, buffalo wings, baked beans, mac and cheese, a soup (or chili?), donuts and cookies. Self service coffee and still and sparkling water stations were available too. The bar did offer mocktails given liquor was not available. There are several seating options ranging from tables to lounge seating to bar seating. Two TVs are in the bar area. The staff was friendly and eager to serve - not too surprising since they just opened. It will be nice place for some refreshments if you have time preflight, but the proximity to the bathrooms are definitely a negative.

    So I'm stuck in the Tulsa airport and conveniently Fat Guy's is next to my terminal…read more When we first arrived, before the first delay, our group thought we had 40 minutes. So a round of beers and a very large order of fries was all we ordered. The local IPA was good and fries great - easily shared. Time to board - maybe not. This time an hour delay. Back to the same table for another round of beers and two orders of the cheese fries this time. Fries were good but perhaps too cheesy to share. By yourself or with family it would be fine. Time to board - nope. This time a 1.5 hour delay. Now it's another round and burgers. I abstained hoping I could still have dinner at home with my wife. Burgers looked great and were a hit. Some of the group had dined here before so they knew what to expect. Service was friendly and responsive even with a growing clientele who were becoming more agitated over the delays. We finally board and I made it home for a late dinner with my wife. Goodbye Tulsa. See you and Fat Guy's next month.

    I came in at 7:05 PM to get food with my daughter before my flight. My daughter ordered while I…read morechecked on our delayed flight. Waiting for our waitress to return and never came over to ask for food prior to closing the kitchen. Too busy cleaning the soda machine to acknowledge me and walked away as I was walking over to order. The bartender said they closed at 7:30. Worst experience with Jami W... very distracted and not attentive to customers. Otherwise the food was good for my daughter.

    I'm an avid traveler to Tulsa, at least twice a week. At first I used to go to Home Team & TGIF…read morebar, but their service is absolutely horrible. Not sure why some of these people are still working there especially since it's the hospitality industry but it seems the management is content with it so they refuse to hire new staff or make changes. As for the Home Team, there are 4-5 people working and the servers/bartenders are usually gossiping or taking their time to come to you for service. Drinks are bad, Food is no good and service is really really bad. No smiles, no eye contact and no human interaction! As for TGIF ....Literally the WORST bartender ever, I believe his name is Dustin or Curtis or something, (older guy with really really bad teeth ! yuk) He ranted about how much he hates working for this company, he makes the most money, better than everyone around him & that he is the best bartender in the world. I've traveled all around the world and I can tell you he is extremely delusional and he is by far the WORST bartender I've ever ever had!! There was a few weeks, that on purpose I brought my own food just to avoid going to either of these places but as soon as they opened the Sam Adams bar in the C wing, I was so excited to see a new face! Unfortunately my first impression of the Sam Adams bartender (Chris) was negative. Poor guy had no clue how to make a Bloody Mary or even how to pour a proper draft beer. He seems out of place at the bar and he has zero passion to be a bartender. He said it was just a "gig" for him and that if it wasn't for the money, he would rather do something else. Almost forgot his mom is the supervisor so makes sense why he is there. He told me he was just hired without any experience at the bar, he used to throw out the trash for the airport..Go Figure ! Not sure why a company like HMS allows inexperienced bartenders to work at an international airport with hundreds of people traveling, but again I guess it's because the majority of people that work for the company are all buddies. So I stopped going to the Sam Adams bar until I walked by there last Friday and saw a new face. She greeted me promptly and served me within minutes. She made me an amazing Bloody Mary and she was very attentive. The bar was busy but she worked her space like a professional!! She had great conversation and she was well informed with Tulsa. It was such a delight spending time with her and I highly recommend this bar (when she's working). I travel twice a week to Tulsa and having a great bartender makes my trip less stressful. I believe she only works on Friday and Sunday. Would be great if she would work other days and even at the Home Team, they really need the help ! Everyone that I know that has been to the other bar would never go again. This company needs more bartenders like (Marisa) !!! I created this account just so that I can share my experience. Cheers !
