    Blackberry sour
    Amber A.

    This lounge leaves so much to be desired. The options of food are so limited the bathroom outside the lounge is actually nicer and definitely cleaner. The drinks are ok when the bartender is actually behind the bar... if not whatever hostess working will just eyeball it following the recipe on the menu and then you're doomed. For the most mart the service is nice, they try to keep everything clean and tidy. They got rid of the chocolate chip cookies and that's quite unforgivable but the oatmeal raisin weren't awful.

    Definitely not worth it unless you are either 1) flying out of concourse D or E and have nothing else to do or 2) are in desperate need of a complimentary cocktail with Priority Pass and have a long layover. Take note that if you are making a connection and arrive at concourses A, B, or C, you will have to go through security to enter concourse D/E and again if you're returning to A/B/C. Luckily the security lines were short at the time of my visit but I walked fast from A to the lounge and it took about 20 minutes. That being said, plan accordingly based on the length of your layover. The lounge itself is very small, fairly worn down, and with poor food selections. I looked at some of the old photos and saw individually boxed cereals and a grab and go drink cooler. Both of these are gone. They now have a communal pot of two different cereals that guests can scoop from themselves. Drinks are from a fountain soda, coffee dispensers, or a cocktail from the bar. Food options are limited and all feel like they were taken out of a sealed box that was shipped half way across the country. For service, the staff did a good job of clearing used dish wear on a frequent basis but I couldn't say that the experience was very pleasant beyond that. When I first entered the lounge, I began to set my things down at an open table at the front but a staff member quickly asked me to move to the back of the lounge and take a single seat to reserve the tables for parties of two. That's fine but she herself was seated at a two person table by herself AND the gentleman at the table to her left was also sitting alone at a two person table. Definitely not very good.

    One of the most underwhelming lounges for sure. It's dirty, seating is cramped, food options are underwhelming. You basically get to choose from salad, cookies, popcorn, and a few soups. However, items run out quick and are restocked slowly so you may just end up getting whatever they have available at that moment. They are understaffed and the staff do not move with any urgency. If you're here just for the drinks, then that's fine as the bar seems to be operating smoothly. But to be honest, it's more comfortable sitting outside with the masses over sitting in this lounge.

    Truly, Bubbly, Heineken
    Elena N.

    Date: Friday, October 24th, 2025 Time: around 6pm Party of: 3 Entry Granted Thru: Priority Pass We had a little over an hour to kill before our flight. This lounge was on the way to our gate, so we decided to drop by. There was a waitlist when we arrived so I signed up. Everyone who signed up around the same time got it at the same time. This lounge is small. And it's one of the more bare bones lounges I've been to. We didn't check out the food area since we had just had lunch. But my friend and I went to the bar and grabbed a drink. I got a Truly and a glass of bubbles. He a Heineken beer. I believe his dad grabbed a soda and a coffee? Since my boarding group started shortly after we got into the lounge, I left after I had those two drinks. Friends stayed a little while after. If you have some time to kill, this isn't a bad free option with certain passes. But there are much better lounges out there if you have a limited number of visits or are considering paying.

    Popcorn and snacks
    David C.

    One of the worst lounges I've been to. Bwi airport only have the one lounge. No chase lounge, no Centurion lounge, no delta lounge. I can see why. Baltimore is a rough city. I looked at the food offerings and I just can't eat anything here. Everything looks rough like baltimore. Lol. The worker seem attentive. But quality of food aint it. Not the best use of space.

    This is not the biggest lounge, it doesn't have the largest selection of food, and the vibe is a little like a basement conference room at a budget hotel, but it is a very pleasant way to spend some time while waiting for your flight. The breakfast bar was small, but still had several hot options in addition to bread products and fruit, and the coffee station included several flavored syrups. I can see it being hard to get food or drinks if busy, due to the layout and size, but when we were there early morning, it was very quick. It is located next to gate D8 and the Dunkin Donuts. Also, the bar opens at 6am, if you're into that.

    Hummus, pita, salad, water
    Dawn L.

    I decided to check out The Club BWI which is the only airport lounge at BWI. It is hidden at Concourse E 10. It is inconvenient to any Concourse but E. If your plane leaves from A-C, you will have to leave E and go back through security again. The lounge is very small. There was salad and hummus and soup. There are some snacks like popcorn and candy. The ambiance is "compact". BWI airport can do better. There needs to be a lounge at concourses A-C. The Denver airport lounge is so much better than this.

    Peter P.

    This place as gotten very popular now which means busy. The staff and still awesome and so friendly. Its menu/drinks seemed to have tightened up but for a priority pass accepting lounge you can't complain. It's good enough for a quick small snack and a basic drink. Plenty of seat but there can be a wait, I was happy that they open early so I could stop by before my 6 am flight.

    Jazz T.

    The previous reviews are NOT wrong. This place literally has nothing. They only offered sodas, coffee and water early in the morning. Where's the juice? And the soda was off brand Shasta at that. The food selection was the bare minimum: bagels, mini muffins, yogurt/granola and mixed fruit. The bar didn't open until 6am. The lounge itself was small, very small. It's disappointing that you have to have prestigious cards to enter and this is what we get. Not a fan of this location at all. The previous reviews weren't wrong. I gave it 2 stars because the staff were friendly, I really liked my bartender and it was clean.

    Dining area
    Anita T.

    As far as airport lounges are, this one is very mediocre. But it's better than sitting at the crowded gate if you've got a longer wait. It's small without a lot of tables or chairs, but we did find a table up front. The food was as expected...like a college dining hall. Coffee was good and hot. Someone was sitting up sleeping at a table, so it's possible to rest although there aren't loungers like some of the nicer clubs. Small restrooms, but I opted for the big ones right outside the club in the terminal. We passed 30 mins here before catching our flight.

    No juice at breakfast
    Sherprina L.

    The bad - Small, crowded, not clean, lack of food selection, broken dirty bathroom The good - friendly staff, from the door, bar to others. Next to the Spirits gate which was very convenient for me!

    A few mimosas.
    Christopher S.

    The people that work here are awesome in the location and convenience is worth noting. The food was decent enough, but I would have liked there to be a larger selection of food options. All in all this place was clean and there for me when I needed to have a few mimosas before my flight.

    Muffins and cheesy scrambled eggs
    Ana S.

    You need to try the cheesy scrambled eggs here (if that's what they're called). Selection is a bit limited, but for a free post-flight meal that was an accidental finding, I am not complaining. Shoutout to Priority Pass for the free breakfast.

    Food was alright, service was not bad. The environment was just ok. It's a pit stop if you need some space to rest before a flight.

    No space for almost 2 hours. Needs a better system. Seems that they don't monitor how long people stay and don't care about turnover.

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.

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!

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.
