    Pretty decent for a stateside lounge. Came by early around 9:30am on a Monday morning and the lounge was fairly empty, maybe at 7-8% capacity. It's located past security, immediately after you exit the security area make a left and within a couple minutes walk, follow signs directing you upstairs above Gate 12 to the second floor area where this lounge is located. Walking in, the lobby area is very open and check-in was easy, just show your oneworld status, credit card and/or ticket for certain flight classes, then head towards the left down a brightly lit hallway inside. Upon entering there is a configuration of lounge chairs and dining tables directly to your front left, food and drink is to your right in the form of a buffet counters, refrigerator for chilled drinks, wine and liquor, espresso machine and tea station. Since it was morning, breakfast options were set out: fruit, oatmeal, scrambled eggs, breads, sausage and bacon. There's a toaster for bread and condiments like butter, jam, ketchup and pepper, brown sugar, cinnamon and raisins for oatmeal. Walking past the food area there are more private booths with runway views to the right, and much more seating towards the back. The size impressed me, it felt about 70% as big as the larger Delta Sky Club in Terminal 4. Apparently there are QR codes that can be scanned for made-to-order food though I didn't have time to try this. Open 4:15am-1:15am. Bathrooms available and in decent shape. Staff were prompt in keeping tables tidy. There were signs for a Tasting Room though I didn't get a chance to look more into it.

    Lovely Lounge in Terminal 8!

    Relaxing and Expansive Lounge at JFK. Comfortable seating areas. Great service. Good selections of food and beverages at their buffet. Do allow plenty of time to walk to your departure gate, long distance between each gate! CHEERS!

    Greenwich Lounge. What a nice perk for flying Hawaiian Airlines! When we checked in for our flight from New York to Honolulu, we had elected to pay the price for a first class ticket for the long flight home. Having done so, we were delighted to find out that we could enter the airline lounge while we waited for our flight. This lounge also includes American Airlines and British Airways members. Finding the entrance to the lounge was easy as the signage and instructions provided were clear and signs visible. You take an elevator up to the lounge and there is a front area where your tickets are checked along with your identification. Then the fun and relaxation begins. The lounge is expansive. Tables, nooks, couches, and more are available for you to hang out, work, socialize and so much more. There is a variety of alcoholic beverages and non alcoholic beverages available here for your consumption. Hot and cold foods are also offered here. Want a shower? They have it here as well! Service here is great and efficient. Clearing off your dishes, replenishing the hot and cold foods for your continued consumption. We could get used to this! An enjoyable experience.

    This lounge is located at JFK Terminal 8. You have to take the elevator up to access it. The lounge receptionists' hospitality vary. One guy was snobbish and seemed to not want to assist us when we arrived so I went to the next receptionist. We went out of the lounge and came back in again and another female receptionist was more accommodating and had a more positive vibe. I guess the staffs' mood and personality depends on the time of the day. The lounge was huge. There were different portions for your different needs. The food selection was decent (we were there for breakfast) and there's different areas you can stay at. We stayed at the Tasting room (because it has a booth and it's where you can order food from their menu. Although the food selection came in small portions and the selection varies daily), by the window seated on a lounge chair with foot stool where you're in front of a ceiling high window with the view of the tarmac and the Bridge Bar because it's more private since not much people stay there. They also have other nice areas to stay at like the quiet room (but we have a baby so we can't really stay there), play area for kids, computer section if you need to use one and they also have a printer, different bars where you can get a drink (or more) among others. The place was nice and clean and I would definitely recommend it if you can access it. It's easy to pass the time in this place.

    Overall: A+ // 6 stars The Greenwich Lounge is a joint venture by American Airlines and British Airways and is the easiest of three lounges to access in JFK's Terminal 8, featuring primarily Oneworld Alliance member airlines, who all have access to this lounge when flying on an eligible route in business class (International Business plus select US Transcon) or with sufficient Oneworld status. Given that most people JFK terminals are not connected after security, and a lot of the NYC travelers are more interested in United and Delta, this lounge ends up being very pleasant during every visit I've been, where the immense square footage greatly outnumbers the number of guests using the lounge. In the mornings, this lounge is just your standard lounge, with breakfast buffet options, drink machines, and a self-serve bar. What shines here is that AA offers lounge access on arrival for domestic flights that don't require security clearance, which is particularly great for their transcon redeyes, as this is a great refuel point to grab a quick bite, some caffeine, and perhaps even a shower before proceeding into the city. When the morning has passed is when this lounge gets truly exciting though, with two new rooms to explore for the curious traveler. The first is a tasting room, which features four local beers on tap where you can try a beer flight. They also offer several wine options as well. In addition, this room has a made-to-order menu featuring upscale bar bites from housemade chips with hot sauce and blue cheese dip to pulled pork sliders that were all so tasty. The second room -- "At The Bridge" -- gives interior garden vibes with a cozy bar overlooking the terminal featuring quirky fruit-forward cocktails and a different set of equally intriguing finger foods such as a smoked salmon tartine and caramel chocolate dipped strawberries, also made to order and quite tasty. Overall, I found this lounge to be practical, yet elegant; spacious yet comforting -- one that truly impresses as a Business Class lounge. If we consider that both BA and AA do not have hubs in NYC, its even more impressive as this lounge is truly better quality than most business class lounges in other airline's primary hub.

    First time at this lounge and was pretty impressed with its space, food, and drink options! Love that they open late until like 1am and have a wide range of food types, ranging from salad, dips, mains, and proteins. Allergens are written out and utensils are clean. Seems like wine was self serve. Only wish they had more tea options. Lots of space available, ranging from high tops, tables, and booths. Wifi was pretty strong!

    For those traveling business or first on a transcontinental flight, this is the best you can access in JFK Terminal 8. This spacious lounge offers excellent food, plenty of space, and tons of self serve alcohol, liquors, and other drinks. Breakfast is not as interesting as lunch/dinner options. At 10:30am, the Tasting Room opens with more premium foods. Definitely come here if you have the chance!

    I went to this airport lounge after checking in at JFK. It was a complimentary admission for flying Japan Airline premium economy. It is located on the second floor after passing thru security. The lounge is a place to eat and relax while waiting for your flight; comfortable seating with a variety of hot food and drinks. They even served beer and alcohol. Food options included soups, various healthy salads, couple of meat dishes, and cookies/ brownies for dessert. The lounge was very well maintained with a large staff to serve and clean. Over all you can't really complain for something that is complimentary but I wish they serve some fruits. It was an enjoyable experience but there was no fruit in sight hence the four stars.

    Had the chance to stop by this Capital One lounge in terminal 4 as we were flying Singapore…read moreAirlines to Frankfurt. It was either this option or the Virgin Atlantic. So after reviewing Yelp on both lounges I opted for capital one and I am very pleased with this lounge! First you can order hot small dishes from any table, there is a QR code on each table with today's choices. There is a cheese monger where you need to reserve 45 mins for a cheese tasting (we did not do, but looks amazing!). There is a buffet style with little dishes such as devil eggs, crostini, roasted squash. There is a to-go sandwich option with ess a bagel and pastrami from Schaller and Weber! and a huge bar also stocked with mocktails! We sat down at a table by the food and desserts section, they even brought out a nice baby chair for our baby! Ordered a bunch of dishes from the kitchen, Mac and cheese, shrimp salad, little burgers, mushrooms risotto and a soup! Honestly not all of the dishes were delicious, they were decent. However our experience and the service at this lounge was definitely excellent! They were so attentive to our needs and our baby's needs. We really felt taken care of. Note we did have a short wait, however it was literally not even 5 minutes to get into the lounge but definitely take this into consideration at busy times there will be a wait. But this wait is probably not as bad as the wait at the Amex centurion lounge in the same terminal. Overall we had a fabulous experience, felt really taken care of and especially with our baby. And they gave our baby his own baby pilot bib! So adorable!

I am not the primary so to…read moreget in it's 45 dollars at first you might eh 45 dollars with a 3 hour before flight time visit but seriously lots a little bite choices and a full cheese bar. Think if you went to blech McDs for 20 bucks or over priced Starbucks I am liking Capital One a lot these days. From the coffee café at the mall with tasty snacks and coffees.To this fine place at terminal four in JFK. Fresh coffees Machine coffees sodas ice tea. Snacks you bag in cute little bags like chips or pretzels. Tasty hot offerings brought to you seat today I had a chicken pot pie served in a little cast iron pot as cute as it's delicious. They also had mini burgers and soup on today's menu Assortment of mini pastries and cookies You will leave stuffed AND here is one of the biggest perks of all Big clean spa like hot showers Last trip I was literally crying with happiness coming off an 8.5 hour shift at work then a 1 hour flight to get to jfk to wait 4 hours for my next flight of 12 hours The shower was heaven got on that next flight fully refreshed full and ready for a long nap. Today no shower but a wonderful relaxing experience worth the 45$

You can debate the nuances of each-- Centurion's food is better, Capital One's is larger and has a cheese monger, Ess a Bagel, and better cocktails. But compared to the sort of lounges that don't have their own bathrooms and offer nothing more than some bananas and cereal, you really could do worse. The Sapphire lounge in LGA is larger and prettier, but they pretty much offer the same amenities. The bathrooms have been clean every time I've visited, save for one time. The menu isn't vast but there's a little buffet station with fresh fruit and hot food, as well as a made to order menu with full sized portions. Sometimes the food has been quick, and other times it has taken a while, so you really should give yourself some buffer time if you're trying to get something from the made to order menu. The food is fine. I've visited enough times to say that the folks who work here have been so warm and nice each time, checking in and asking guests how they're doing. Garbage is cleaned up immediately, so it's a pretty well oiled machine in there. You can bring up to 2 guests and any additional guests cost just $27 more, which I'd say it's worth it, particularly if you have a long layover and will have a couple of drinks.

    Under the level of the Chase lounge in LGA, but in the same tier, I'd say. The buffet food is…read morecurated and good (the chicken thighs in the mushroom sauce was my favorite). I'm not a big fan of the cocktails, but perhaps I haven't found the one that I like yet (I had a whiskey drink that I can't pronounce that was just alright).

There's an okay selection of drinks/sodas. If you're able to get a table in the front corner, you will be up close to planes, so that's neat. Bathrooms are well maintained, but small and cramped. Overall, it doesn't measure up to larger lounges but the friendly staff makes up for any shortcomings.

After that things fell apart a bit, with the server bringing one of us the wrong starter followed by a long wait for the correct one. Wine service also largely disappeared, though there were plenty of places outside the restaurant to get drinks. The food on the buffet looked and sounded delicious but suffered from sitting out too long. The food was certainly a step way up from the usual Delta Lounge, but I would in no way compare it to a good fine dining restaurant on the outside. Highlights were the massage chairs and facials. The process for signing up is confusing and the wait can be long if you come at the wrong time, but if you have enough time it's definitely worth it. Other than that, it was reminiscent of a Centurion Lounge - spacious but crowded, with a decent food and drink selection. Nice for an airport lounge, but still an airport lounge.
