First time around: I ordered an 8 oz (which is considered a medium, LOLZ) oat milk latte with one pump of vanilla and a little Quiche Lorraine (GF) on the side. The total came out to about $12/ €10. The gal who helped me was so wonderful! As soon as she heard me say, "hello", she switched gears and asked me, "English?". I was so impressed watching her interact with multiple different customers, seamlessly jumping from language to language. After I grabbed my food, I went and found a little table in the middle of the airport where I had an eat-pray-love moment with my food and coffee. Following my heavenly breakfast, I walked around for 2 hours and was drawn back for another coffee. That's how you know it's good coffee, folks. Check 'em out - it'll make your layover somethin' like a dream!

The space is bright, spacious, and impeccably clean, with a modern design that feels calm and upscale--perfect before a flight. Breakfast offerings are surprisingly delicious and well-curated, with both hot and cold options that go well beyond typical lounge fare. Everything was fresh, well presented, and easy to navigate. The full bar is a standout, complemented by excellent coffee, fast free Wi-Fi, and a relaxed seating layout that works equally well for productivity or unwinding. Plenty of seating, charging points, and quiet corners make it feel uncrowded even during busy travel times. A truly comfortable and polished lounge experience that sets the bar high for Star Alliance lounges. I'd happily arrive early just to spend more time here.

The lounge itself is a bit rundown and could use some renovating (half looks more modern/newer, and the other half looks older), but there are decent amount of seats and tables. The food selection is not that great - I was happy that I picked up some food before heading into the lounge. Around lunch, they had some salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, potato salad that looked like a bunch of mayo, pesto pasta salad, and coleslaw. They had a soup that looked like an overly creamy clam chowder. They had some cheese and some deli meat. They had a few snacks (not prepackaged) like pretzel snack mix and breadsticks and some speculoos cookies. They had croissants and Belgian waffles. The waffles were just so-so. I didn't eat a ton of the food other than a few bites of pasta salad and potato salad, both which were bland and gross. The bathrooms are a bit small and could use some renovation but at least they have bathrooms in the lounge. They also have WiFi. All in all, decent for a drink and snack but don't expect anything fancy, nor much good food.

Arriving in Brussels, my flight parked at the farthest gate in the Brussels airport and I had a…read morehike to get to border control. The line took almost one hour at 9am on a weekday. Unlike in Germany, it appeared that Brussels had not yet implemented the new customs system at arrivals so non EU citizens queued in one line. EU citizens zipped through with the electronic pass gates. However when it was my turn with the agent I only had to scan the fingers on my right hand, answered a question what do I do for a living and that was it. Less than a couple minutes surprisingl. Baggage claim was right after and then the exit. Very good signage that directed people to the bus, train, parking, etc. When departing Brussels, follow the signs to the appropriate terminal if not checking luggage. Electronic gates required a boarding pass scan to validate trip and gain entrain to the security screening area. At least multiple lines were open so it flowed well. Plastics baggies needed to hold your small liquid containers), water bottles emptied, belts removed but shoes stayed on. Immigration was next and much more efficient on departure. US citizens accessed the electronic gates with just a passport scan and photo. It's not 100% functional as I was told to keep trying gates until my passport was accepted (4th one was the charm). Passport still had to be inspected and stamped afterwards but that was quick. Overall 50-50 rating based on this experience. Hopefully arrivals will be much better after full implementation of the EES screening process.

Brussels was a bit hectic for non EU travelers in early December 2025…read more The new "EES" - Entry/ Exit system is being implemented throughout Europe and began rolling out in October. While all the searches implied that the traditional passport stamping has been phased out- for international flights, this is not yet the case. For me - I love the passport stamps, that's part of memory making of each destination. We were required to get in line for (2!) agents when entering and this was quite time consuming. (But I did indeed get my stamps). At this point they are requiring that you offer your right hand fingerprints- which is part of the plan and will eventually phase out the stamp. Returning to the airport for the return trip to the US was the same process. The rub was when after quite a long delay for the outbound flight to the states, the airline (United) announced 20 minutes before boarding that all passengers must have the entry "sticker" on the back of the passport. Literally no one had this sticker. Lots of frustration, lack of patience, and time spent on this. 2 gate agents approached each person with many questions and then once satisfied - put the sticker on your passport and allowed you to proceed to boarding. Hoping this all gets worked out by the new year. The Brussels Air lounge is accessible for Star Alliance Polaris passengers and was fine. Lots of passengers, a fair offering of breakfast (then on to lunch based on our 4 hour + delay). Help yourself to beer, on tap and bottled and sparkling wines.
