WOW. To be fair, this was my first time in an airport…read morelounge, so I have nothing to compare it to. This review isn't based on how great United's is compared to other airlines or this location compared to others. This is just me, being incredibly impressed that this is an option for travel. I was on a later flight and entered the lounge a few hours before closing. I don't feel like the buffet food selection was the best or the most fresh, but that may be because they were so close to closing for the night. I was impressed mostly by the drink options. In addition to the full bar, there was a coffee machine that could make anything you desire, several water stations, and a coca cola freestyle machine for fountain drinks. I really enjoyed the self serve snack station by the bar. The Gardettos style snack mix they serve on United flights are my favorite and I can never get enough. I was excited they have them in the lounge. This lounge was incredibly spacious with lots of seating options. It's a great way to pass the time before a flight, especially in an airport this busy.

When you get past the security, you enter a good sized lounge with plenty of food and drinks. Interestingly, every food item is labeled and the labels let you know about any allergens in that item. They also have a stocked bar with various liquors as well as beer and wine. Everything was good. I tried everything I could so the list is long and, frankly, I don't remember everything I ate. All I can tell you is the food was very good. There is plenty of seating, so unless they have a lot of flights going on, you can find a seat. The seating was comfortable and we took a table by the food which we frequented... The wine selection was much better than I expected and I enjoyed some Pinot Noir. This was a great experience - one we don't take advantage of often. So, what I can tell you is it is much, much better than sitting at the gate. :)

This location is spacious like the other flagships but often has a bunch of people in it. The reason Soho rates above the rest is they gate access to One World Emerald customers only so it's a much more relaxed and considered space. This one allows in Sapphire as well so there's a bunch of bodies in here.

However, they do close at 9:00 p.m: normally but they will extend the closing time if there are delayed flights and this is what we experienced.

So enjoy the food, the drinks, the wait (you won't mind waiting for your flight). Thank you to Charlie B. For coming out and greeting us on this visit!! FYI, the Polaris at EWR is just as equally nice. But that's another review. :)

We absolutely love the decor..much more high end, classy, and timeless. We love the leather chairs and lounge areas. The addition of the new bar is a plus. Looks like I'm going into a high end bar or restaurant. The dining room looks 100x better than that outdated looking one prior! The wood and shelvings really makes this lounge so sleek. American Express and Capital one lounges finally have some competition! I love how spacious this place is and not crowded! Bathrooms and showers here never disappoint! We love the vibes here. Completely better with all these remodel! Food- 10/10 upgrade!!! The food here makes United Polaris SFO look embarrassing. I recall eating off of paper plates last year at the SFO Polaris lounge which was depressing. The dining room looks like it can accommodate more people than before and it looks so much more classier. We got the Polaris burger, potato soup, shrimp fritter, arancini. Here what I rate them below: Shrimp fritter- 8/10. Yum! Love the presentation. Fritter was perfect. Shrimp pieces were present. Potato soup-8/10 light and refreshing. Need a bit salt. Polaris burger-10/10 short rib burger. Must try here. I could have ate 3 of these. Fries need to just be like normal fries...3 rectangle potatoes didn't mash well with the amazing burger. Like just get normal skinny frites or Curley fries. arancini- 10/10. Perfect. Not too heavy! Cookie skillet- 10/10. Don't get anything else. Strawberry tart- 4/10- the tart was too hard. Need a softer base. Bundt cake- 11/10. Thank you chef for your mom's recipe. Best Bundt cake to mark 100 years. They also had a holiday special for Easter which I never seen in a lounge. They had someone carve lamb and served veggies & potatoes! Yummmm. Lamb was tender but bit dry. Still good. Mash potatoes were perfect. I love how there was a staff passing out drinks and mini pastries. Overall, completely different lounge! Service is top notch here. Michael took good care of us at the dining room. Food came out pretty fast. Happy 100th anniversary United Airlines! We are forever loyal to you if you keep this up.

Nice smaller alternative with great features…read more This new United Club in Terminal 2, Concourse E, Near Gate E7 is not to be confused with the larger and older United Club in Concourse F, Across from Gate 9. There are four Framery privacy pods. Two with adjustable seats and desk tops and two without seats in a stand up desk configuration. These pods are quiet and have charging capability (1 USB-C and 1 115V). Overhead lighting is fully adjustable along with the front facing lighting for video conference calls. There is also an adjustment for the ventilation fan however I have found that, even on the highest setting, they can get warm. There are most of the same food options as the F9 location but on a smaller scale. There are self-serve options for soft drinks and coffee. In lieu of a tended bar, there is a self-serve bar with an assortment of juices, wines and beers. Like most United Clubs, there isn't a whole lot of interaction with the staff. That said, they all seem friendly enough and this location is clean and well maintained. Would I go back? I've actually been to this location a few times now and like it. So far, it's a quieter alternative to some of the other locations.

There are different seating arrangements including phone booth like cubes for more private phone conversation.

As far as airport lounges go, this one's okay The main thing to know is that it is a very-very…read morelarge lounge. The reason this lounge was designed as such a large space is due to the fact that there's a lot of people in here. That's just something to keep in mind as a basis for your understanding. In terms of design, this lounge has various types of seating. They have the more comfortable chairs located throughout the various rooms at this lounge. They also have numerous seats that are associated with tables. This is probably best for people like myself, who enjoyed grabbing a quick snack, and having a drink, before it's time to board the aircraft. They also have long desks with charging ports set up for those who want to get some work done. Plus, there are some self-standing seats spread out throughout the lounge area. In terms of food offerings, they have food buffets on two ends of the lounge. Both of these buffets offer a unique blending of Quick-Food, as I like to call it. Is pretty good. I will say, that I've never been disappointed in what they offer. You can always find something to suit your pallet. In terms of drinks, they have drink offerings at both ends of the lounge, as well, in association with the food buffets. There, you can get your expected soft drinks, coffee, and water. If you want alcoholic beverages, you have to go down to the one end of the lounge, where they have a bar. There, they generally have two bartenders. Each of which is happy to give you whatever you want. They often mix drinks, beers, wine, and all that kind of stuff. Many of the drinks are all free. But, if they are, be sure to throw the bartenders a tip. I think that's an important gesture. Some people decide to sit along the bar while they enjoy their drinks. I guess they are just type of people who enjoying hanging out at bars. I don't find out all that comfortable, or appealing, as you're basically elbow-to-elbow with somebody, you don't really know. But, that's just my personal opinion. If I have one complaint about this lounge, it's the fact that it's not really set up for the first class domestic passengers on United. Whereas, is you are flying internationally on United, they use the Star Alliance lounges that are specifically designed for its first and business class passengers. In terms of this lounge, pretty much anybody can get into it, simply by paying a sixty dollar fee. Thus, you get a whole lot of people, Just overwhelming space, without a lot of decorum. Overall, I've been in much better lounges, and I've been in a lot worse lounges around the globe. There's not much to complain about this place, you just have to expect that there's gonna be a lot of people. I have seen it at times midday, when people can't even find a single seat to sit in. So, just keep this in mind.

In terms of scale and aesthetic, it reminds me of the Sky Clubs at LaGuardia (Terminal C) and LAX (Terminal 3), both of which we visited within the past year. Coincidentally, all three opened in 2022, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that they all remind me of each other. This is the only Sky Club at O'Hare. It's located in Concourse M between Gates M14 and M11. It's big at over 22,000 square feet with seating for about 400 guests. The food, drink, and service were good -- generally consistent with my experiences at other Sky Clubs in recent years. My favorite feature of this particular Sky Club is the Chicago-style hot dog cart. During our visit, it was tucked away near the secondary bar. Our Chicago dogs were authentic and delicious. If I recall correctly, the hot dog guy said the cart was only meant for the lounge's opening; however, it was so popular that it became a permanent fixture in the lounge. Another one of the staff voluntarily asked me which game I wanted to watch on the big screen TV near me and he changed the channel for me. That was nice.

United Lounge - Terminal 1, B18 (ORD Airport)…read more Friendly. Clean. Modern. Well thought out! This was my first time visiting this club, located by B18. As you walk in, you will see escalators in front of you leading downstairs. To the right are two beautiful and friendly ladies to help you. Elevator is available if you prefer to use it, instead of escalators. At the bottom of the escalators, you will see beautiful large blue chairs with UA classic Aircraft Picture. To the right of the chairs are additional help desk to make your stay more pleasant and stress free. As you turn to the left, you have your area for breakfast, lunch and dinner selections. As well as, large seating configuration. If you're looking to unwind and relax at the bar, you will find it on the other end of seating. Additional seating is available by the bar, around the corner. My stay was very enjoyable. I loved how clean it was, everything from floors, tables utensils to restrooms. It's a small detail but I did appreciate in men's restroom the mirror had aircraft-like windows design. Small details of great design can be seen all throughout this United Club.

Honestly for the quality of food and venue provided I definitely think it is a good value - not only by airport standards. Thomas was my server and he did a phenomenal job! There was an option to use a QR code menu but he saw me struggling with it and gave me a physical menu. He gave me good recommendations and also helped me move tables so I could charge my laptop.

I was sat and served everything within 15 minutes. And got attention given how busy it was. I am impressed with how quick they are since it's an airport.
