    Very nice brand new lounge with exclusive access for passengers of American Airlines and British Airways flying in Business Class and First Class and they are in the highest status like AA Concierge Key or Executive Platinum. The lounge is very big and spacious, you don't feel cramp like in other lounges (including the Admiral). The food is very good and the servers change them often to maintain them warm and fresh. You can even request some items like burgers or a feature plate using a QR code menu. There is a full bar and they give you any drink you want and as many as you can handle :) It is not to the level of the Flagship lounge that I visited in Miami or Los Angeles but I felt very comfortable and satisfied with the food. I general a high end quality lounge to pamper you before a long flight.

    In JFK terminal 8 there are 3 lounges right after security: Chelsea, Soho, and Greenwich. The Soho Lounge is a great option especially as the Greenwich lounge is usually pretty crowded and busy and the Chelsea lounge is only for select First class flyers. On a Saturday early morning there were very few patrons in the lounge. In the dining area that had a buffet of options (cold meats, scrambled eggs) but I decided to order off the menu for an avocado burrata toast. The avocado wasn't fully ripe but the burrata and toast were great.

    JFK has 3 Admiral lounges: Soho, Greenwich and Chelsea. Each needs a specific status or seating to be admitted. SoHo has a full bar, self serve wine bar and lots of choices for hot dishes. Lots of tables and comfortable seating.

    Quiet, large, and comfy lounge with excellent food and beautiful views of the tarmac. If you are either an elite status member or flying in Flagship First/Business or with a OneWorld alliance airline, you can get access to this lounge. The food is incredible: excellent chicken, some of the juiciest salmon, the best tortellini with charred green onions that I may have ever had, and so much more. Desserts that are incredible all line one area as well. Seating is plentiful with charging outlets at every point. There are excellent showers as well to use as long as you register at the front.

    Forgot if it was a SOHO or Chelsea Lounge but whatever it may be, it's just wonderful to stop by and relax between my travels. Quiet, intimate, friendly, & relaxing atmosphere. For a frequent traveler like myself, it's a wonderful oasis. Highly recommended.

    First time visit to this beautiful lounge at JFK airport

The fresh drinks and delicious hot meals were wonderful, and the service was excellent. The staff greeted us warmly at the entrance and said goodbye when we left, making the experience feel extra special. Best of all, they offer unlimited grab-and-go food, including salads, pastries, and drinks! The ambiance is relaxing, peaceful, and calming--perfect for unwinding before a flight. A wonderful lounge experience that I would highly recommend! Free access for primary Capital One Venture X cardholders.

Overcrowded, weak offerings, not to mention sometimes you can't even get in, no less get a seat. I recently gave up the credit card that allowed for "free" Admiral's Club membership, those these seem to be the most ubiquitous. I have Priority Pass and barely use it, especially if I'm with my husband because it costs too much IMO for a companion pass (love how they keep whittling away those perks). But on a recent visit to terminal 4 prior to a transatlantic flight, I knew I needed to see if I could at least get a snack and some water, so when I saw the Capital One Lounge, I went for it. I was greeted by the nicest lady who patiently walked me through entry, even though I stupidly left my boarding pass and credit cards about a half a mile away at my gate with my husband. You don't need Priority Pass to enter, just a Capital One card, I believe any tier. Guests can get a pass at 50 dollars, I believe. I guess it's worth it if your guest drinks a lot and has no dietary restrictions. I was pretty impressed with the amount of seating, work stations and tables and easily found a seat. While the cold bar only had one plant based option (thank you for clearly marking dietary restrictions), the menu that you order from had zero. I had the quickest, tiniest snack (I think it was couscous?) and filled my water bottle and went on my way. The bathrooms are private, clean and there's also showers available. Overall a much more positive experience than a lot of lounges (if I can even get in-- Priority Pass is really not good and I'll be moving to a lower tier Capital One card when it comes time to renew).

Today I checked in with a host, got on the waitlist and waited about 45 minutes before getting in. The centurion lounge next door also posted a sign saying it was at capacity and there was an online waitlist. What I don't like about this lounge is I cannot pick a seat. They just escort you and let you know what it's available for you. As other reviews say, I wondered why so many available seats there when a lot of people are waiting outside? It may be the service capacity related, rather than space capacity? The food is consistently good here. The buffet is sufficient but the made to order menu seemed really good too.

At check-in, we were informed that both the showers and internet were not working. Once inside, there was another wait for a table, so I opted to sit at the bar. I ordered an Espresso Martini, which was rather light on the vodka. Since the internet was down, online ordering was unavailable as well, leaving only the hot-plate, cafeteria-esque food. It's also worth mentioning that there were gnats flying around some of the hot plates. Still better than airplane food, I suppose. The biggest quality-of-life feature missing from this lounge is a selection of grab-and-go snacks. Aside from sodas, there was virtually nothing I could toss in my bag for the flight. The lounge itself has a nice interior, but it was packed with people and the overall experience fell well short of what you'd expect from a premium lounge.

Nothing new was brought out or replenished, which was pretty disappointing considering there was still an hour left before closing. The Wi-Fi was also not good and barely worked for us, which is a pretty big downside for an airport lounge where people may be trying to get some work done before a flight. My biggest question is: why does an international airport lounge at JFK close at 9 PM in the first place? There are plenty of late-night international departures, so the early closing time seems strange. And if you're going to stay open until 9, the food should at least be maintained until closer to closing. Overall, decent drinks and food options when they're actually available, but the poor Wi-Fi, lack of food replenishment, and early closing time definitely brought the experience down.

The lounge is spacious, with plenty of comfortable seating, and everything was clean and well maintained. There are two buffet areas, plus a separate coffee and dessert/ice cream bar on the upper level. I found the food to be surprisingly flavorful for an airport lounge, and I also appreciated that kosher meals are available upon request. If you have time before your flight, don't miss the 1850 Speakeasy tucked inside the lounge. It's a fun addition and serves well-crafted specialty cocktails in a more intimate setting. One of my favorite features was the view overlooking the tarmac. It's a great place to relax while watching the constant flow of aircraft taxiing and taking off.

The WiFi was advertised but did not show up as a network and they had no forks available. A good Centurion location but not the best I've seen.

    Yelp Review 2026 #239:…read more Out of my two-hour layover from Chile to JFK to Las Vegas, most of it was spent on rechecking my luggage and going through security even though I was Sky Priority. I have Global Entry so, I passed through immigrations. And JFK is a huge airport. It's a holiday weekend on top of that. The gentleman in front scanned by boarding pass and I was quickly on my way to enjoy the lounge with the 25 minutes I had left before boarding my next flight. I heard great things about this lounge and I wish I could stay for lunch but my flight was boarding at 10:45am, lunch was at 11am. The lounge is huge, spacious, bright and clean. Lots of seats. There's a big bar, different dining areas, a viewing deck where you can eat from or just chill, there's a "market", a bistro, etc. Being short on time, I only grabbed a few quick bites: Croque Monsieur (they toast it for you for 2 minutes), sausages, hashbrown, and a banana. Somebody took my drink order - I got a matcha latte which took over 5 minutes. Around 10:40am, they started putting out desserts for lunch. I grabbed a matcha tiramisu. I couldn't finish my matcha latte because I can't chug a hot beverage but it was delicious though. I still liked the variety of food for breakfast. They have pulled pork sandwiches, benedict, wraps, yogurt parfait, fresh fruits, fresh fruit cups, hardboiled eggs, sausages, hash browns, sandwiches, etc. Service was impeccable. The only down side was that this lounge was too far from my boarding gate (B32 - the Delta Sky Lounge is right next to it) which is not the lounge's fault. LOL. I had to sprint to my gate.

I like being able to come in, find a comfortable seat, charge my devices, grab something to eat, and have a drink without sitting in the middle of all the gate traffic.

It feels modern and spacious, and the outdoor Sky Deck overlooking the airfield is such a nice touch when the weather cooperates. My only real complaint is the crowd. Depending on the time of day, the lounge can get packed, which kind of defeats the purpose of going into a lounge to get away from the airport chaos.

Delta has a lot of traffic out of this terminal, thus opened a second (smaller) Sky Club in Concourse A in 2023. This one in Concourse B (capacity of 500 people) is located near Gate B31, and was convenient for a very early morning visit shortly after arriving into NY from LA on a red-eye flight. My wife and I gain entry into Sky Clubs via our AMEX Delta Reserve Card, which provides 15 complementary visits per year. The Sky Club allows entry at the point of arrival, whereas most other lounges is only for point of departure and any layovers. Since we had already used the lounge at LAX the previous night, we knew this additional visit wouldn't count against our cap, so decided to stop in for breakfast. It was very close to our arrival gate (though on the second floor, requiring taking an escalator or elevator), and had already opened at 05:00 by the time we entered (05:20). There were already quite a few people inside, with the breakfast buffet stocked. Found some nice seating with a view of the concourse. I tried some scrambled eggs, herb baked baby potatoes, pork sausage...ended up being a decent breakfast. My wife took advantage of the shower facilities, making an immediately fulfilled reservation since there was no wait. My wife added to her celebrity sightings by meeting Nile Rodgers in line at the breakfast buffet. She said he was a super nice man, willing to talk a bit with her as they progressed, and being appreciative that she was a fan.
