    I couldn't find the bar.

    No booze, FYI. Nice food, friendly people. Very busy and hard to find a seat. Worth a visit, though

    The drinks in this lounge were delicious they had Prosecco on tap and I also had a strawberry drink that was divine. Unfortunately I had minimal time to experience as the lounge was full. They kept allowing Turkish airlines passengers in the lounge and put passport members were put on a hold . We waited 45 min before being allowed in. I had to go up and ask because they said the lounge was full but kept letting other members in. The people at the front desk were not very pleasant or accommodating. The lounge was packed very tight. It was noisy and loud. It's a big lounge but the bathroom lines were incredibly long. Food was mediocre - on the upside the desserts were pretty tasty.

    Solid lounge and it was great to wait there instead of the boarding area. Service is great. The lounge is nice, clean, modern but bit small. Drinks is standard but the food is really great, at least for me. A lounge that i would return to.

    Flying to Venice on Lufthansa in business class. Love that European airlines allow bidding for upgrades. Anyway with our upgrade came a lounge visit but Lufthansa's lounge was closed for refurbishment. We were given access to any Star Alliance lounge and after research we chose Turkish Airlines. The staff is super efficient and friendly. The lounge gets really crowded because it's small but they cleared dishes quickly and it seemed to help with turning the tables. The food was amazing! Best airport lounge food I've had. The bar is tucked away in the back separate from the food and dining area. We sat next to two nice gentlemen who were professors going to Frankfurt to teach international business for a week. I love how airports make people More Sociable.

    The food is ten thousand times better than United, Delta, American. Also, they have a shower room. The staff is very friendly and polite with great customer service.

    ***** Axel! ***** Shout out to Axel the bartender. Priority Pass Taken! But watch for the busy times! Waits can be long. Because... Best Old Fashioned & Manhattans. Axel uses Coupé glasses for the Manhattans!!! And he muddles the oranges & cherry. Are you kidding me? Oh no, this is the real deal. Food, outstanding. Service, fantastic. Busy as crap. Don't care, go around to the back bar, past the restrooms. Trust me. Told a fellow traveler to try the Old Fashioned, he gave me a pat on the back for the advice. YOU'RE A POSER IF YOU DON'T TIP AXEL!!!

    Checked out the Turkish Airlines lounge instead of the Air France lounge this time during my most recent flight through Dulles Airport. Both have nice lounge areas however the food at Turkish was wayyy better. I arrived at the lounge around 3 pm on a Monday and the line to get in was out the door. Checking in was super easy though and only took about 2 minutes. Upon entering I quickly grabbed a plate filled with rice, chicken, hummus, pita and a small salad. They had an assortment of other Turkish foods that included other veggies, dips and meats. Everything looked fresh and they were constantly replacing empty dishes. The lounge had a variety of tables, small couches, a long table best for working at and then towards the back bar there was even more seating. This lounge was packed and noisy. Probably the busiest lounge I've been to in a while. Luckily I was able to snag a seat with a stranger because almost every single seat was taken. The bartender was quick and efficient, the prosecco was fine. I didn't get to use the bathroom while here because the line was so long. The WiFi was strong. Definitely recommend checking out during your next flight through Dulles if you want a decent bite to eat. Hopefully it's not always super busy and noisy.

    Overall: C // 3 stars Decent lounge to access regularly through priority pass, but not a good lounge if accessed via an actual Business Class flight. I found the food options to be unappetizing (breakfast) -- including the pastries to be dry. The lounge was relatively busy, though they had a nice bar.

    I would say this is the nicest lounge at this airport currently to include the Amex Centurion lounge. The food is always amazing and service is efficient. Everything is super clean. For lunch they have kabob, falafel, and hummus like items. For breakfast more eggs like Turkish style eggs, boiled eggs and oatmeal. ProTip go to the bar area for some real Turkish coffee.

    Two level lounge. One of the better lounges that I have been too. A wide selection of food and its good! Its very busy so they need to stay fully staffed up!

    I finally had enough time to visit the Turkish Airlines Lounge in IAD. It was located nearby Gate 43 and opened at 7:15AM. Upon entering, the rep scanned my boarding pass and my *G level was recognized without needing to showing my UA card. Very friendly staff and efficient. As one of the first inside, breakfast was all setup with a mixture of western and Turkish options. Their food was fresh, nicely presented and tasty. The setting was nice with window views of the main terminal and tower. Good spacing between tables and chairs. It was a great place to spend time waiting for my connecting flight. A definite reason to come back on my next trip through IAD.

    The Turkish Airlines Lounge is among one of my favorite lounges in IAD. They offer a variety of food, drinks and other beverages you can even take to go if you'd like, whether it be coffee, tea, chai, or a version of soda. Some other lounges just have fountain types, or glass cups with no to go cups. They offer some pretty good breakfast and lunch options pictured with WiFi available. There are even showers available for those that may have a long layover, or what not. The main thing I dislike is the bathroom situation. They're neutral bathrooms, so you have to generally wait. I know it sounds unfair, however, when males use the restroom, it's more often than not, a quick in and out, whereas females usually take longer. Luckily, there are bathrooms and water fountains right outside of the lounge. So if the lines are long inside the lounge which is usually the case, just pop out of the lounge real quick and go back in to use the larger bathrooms that are still fairly clean. The seating arrangement is decent with outlets accessible in most seating areas.

    Delicious Turkish Food!

    One of the best lounges I've been to regarding food! Stopped by after a trip in DC and was pleasantly surprised how stocked the food was at Turkish. Heaps of delicious salads, spreads and chicken were on hand here and I loaded myself up on fresh Turkish classics. The tea and Turkish coffee was top notch as well. Def a lounge I will seek out in the future especially after seeing the starkness of a KLM lounge in Chicago

The lounge was definitely packed for a Thursday afternoon, although the many weather related flight delays likely contributed to the crowds. I was able to find a seat at the bar within a few minutes of arriving, but I noticed several people waiting around for a while hoping to find an open seat.

I also like how much flexibility you have when you're ordering on the QR code. When we arrived, the lounge was at capacity and so we were placed on a short waitlist and we were off within 10 minutes. Because of its capacity, they do direct you where you should sit, which was OK since I was traveling with just my parents. The lounge is split into two floors with really good ambience though like mentioned earlier they do try to fit as many guests as possible so we can feel a bit crowded!

Checked out the sit down restaurant which was empty when I sat down and filled up quickly as the hour got later. Had a crab salad with large lump crab minimally adorned and a burger with the works.

Upon seeing my boarding pass, the staff informed me that we qualify to visit the Polaris Lounge instead, a 5 to 8 minutes' walk away, near Gate C17. I asked which will be less crowded. She said they are both crowded, but the Polaris is much nicer. We decided to hoof it over to the Polaris since it's supposed to be a big deal, ignoring the fact that we probably have 45 minutes only to stay there. She wasn't kidding. The place was packed. It was very difficult to get a pair of seats, and we basically were stalkers waiting for folks to leave. Meanwhile, we were sweating from the walk and from the many people inside the lounge. After finally having seats, we looked at the food and drinks selection. I have to admit the food selection is impressive. They have a dining section that is full table service. Then there is a buffet section with good selection of proteins and produce in addition to the usual snacks. I was too hot to be hungry by then and chose only several cocktail prawns plus a few asparagus stalks. After a cold soda with ice from the bar, it was time to leave. There was also a line to wait for the bathroom. Next time, we won't fancy a Polaris Lounge when we don't have the time to stay.

It's big the club, but one location for food options which is quite tiny. I never knew you could get a bagel made for a child. I'm very confident this was sitting somewhere for a bit of time because without toasting it, you would bust some teeth. It was hard. That scream not even in this realm fresh. I'm wagering that other bread items, oh for those seeking danish or muffins, not a chance that's available. On the coffee side why does United ignore a growing segment of the population that either has a dairy allergy, lactose intolerant or vegan? Ever heard of almond, oat or soy milk? What about those little french vanilla cup things? Clearly who ever oversees this club must be the same dolt who oversees the one in Phoenix because they follow the similar path of cream, 50-50 or whole milk. You do get a sippy like plastic cup for the kiddos, oh I mean for adults to drink your soda out of the machine. Finally with all the germ rise and an increase in norovirus and ongoing yuckiness, how about sanitizer like so many biz lounges have everywhere even on the wall? Don't fret though. Because if you love oranges you are in luck. They also use them for decoration.

This is definitely a lounge where you should expect only the basics and not much more. When I arrived, the food selection was very limited and unfortunately they had already run out of several items and did not restock during my visit. The only things available were slices of bread, oatmeal, grapes, bananas, apples, and pineapple, which felt pretty underwhelming for a lounge. The espresso machines were also out of milk and needed service, so specialty coffee wasn't really an option either. The dining area itself was small and felt cramped, especially during busy times. On the plus side, there was plenty of seating throughout the lounge, but the overall layout felt awkward and outdated. The furniture looks old and the whole space could really use a refresh. The bathrooms were another weak point -- they looked worn down, had only a few stalls, and definitely seemed like they were due for repairs or renovation. One positive note: the cleaning staff did a great job. Tables were cleared quickly and used plates were removed regularly, which helped keep the space from feeling messy even when it was crowded. Overall, this lounge works if you just need a place to sit, charge your phone, and grab a quick snack, but don't expect a premium lounge experience. It really feels like this location is overdue for an update.
