    Stopped by this pizza bar at the airport on my way out and honestly loved it! I tried their Coney Merman IPA and it was so good, super refreshing for an airport drink. I also got the hot honey pepperoni pizza and it was delicious. The toppings and flavors were perfect, and the flatbread style made it even better. I sat at the bar and the bartender was really nice. There was plenty of space and charging spots, which is always a win when you're traveling. I even met a sweet lady who let me borrow her charger. Her husband retired from my job, small world! They also had some unique drink options, like the Shadow Hunter (with Woodford Reserve bourbon) and a Spicy Cider with Wheatley Vodka. Really cool spot to grab a drink and good food before a flight.

    Near Gate A17 where we boarded Delta flight back to DC after a 8-day trip to diff parts of Italy, by train and or by rental car. Service is great! Good caesar salad & Rueben sandwich, and friendly vibe bar seating. Old fashioned drink, hubby told me, was heavy on booze...

    This is for the JFK location by gate A10 for Delta. Bad Service, the waitress and the cashier would not interrupt their conversation to help a line 3 deep on 090524 at 10:32 am. I assume they wanted us to use the kiosk instead. I had a connecting flight so I wanted to know what's quick to order. One guy took the kiosk, the lady in blue got the cashier bought a soda took her order and promptly left Before the lady can finish paying. She was stuck because the machine would not let her Tip. She waited for the cashier to come back just so she can Tip her for the soda bottle! When I finally got my Reuben for $24 plus my $1 tip. I had ask rhetorically - Where's the beef?(see pic). This Reuben does not represent New York well

    Food selection is limited and quality 4anges from ok to terrible. Because they are the only restaurant in that wing of the airport it's like they are barely trying.

    Awesome spot to grab a bite while waiting for my flight. WiFi was not great but the food was good and the staff were friendly.

    Nothing like a $22 hot glass of Prosecco before your flight. That I had to wait 10 minutes for. Better off buying a cocktail on the plane.

    Slow service & bad food for a premium price. For a $30 grab & go breakfast 25 minutes if a long wait.

This was the closest dining establishment that served alcohol by our gate, so we stopped by. It is pretty small and cramped, but we managed to find two seats along the window facing the planes. It was hard to fit in the area as people tend to put bags on seats, etc. Plus the walkway to the kitchen is right there so you feel like you are in the way. Food wise, I liked my salad. Could have done without the chips as I really just wanted greens, veggies, and protein. For $26, it was obviously on the smaller side, but hey, it's an airport resto. My drink was all right. Kinda weak in the liquor and spice department, but fine for sipping. My friend seemed to enjoy his food and cocktail. I wish there were more options in this area of the airport. But this will do if I want a drink. REVIEW #4023

The hostess greeted me warmly and allowed me to browse the menu at my leisure without feeling rushed. The seating was spacious, and the self-serve bar area offered plenty of room. The decor and vibe evoked an early 60s charm, though the playlist featuring early 2000s hits was a quirky mismatch, yet, honestly, it grew on me and seemed to add a lively edge to the meal. The menu was straightforward, offering a tempting selection of chicken sandwiches and biscuit dishes. After some thought, I settled on the chicken ranch, it was ready in less than five minutes! The "Porch Sipper" drink was delightful; I ended up ordering a second, as its flavors transported me to open Kentucky fields, sitting on a wraparound porch on a warm summer day, savoring the music and gazing at the blue summer sky. The experience was truly immersive. And I must say, the staff radiated positive energy, they seemed genuinely happy to be there, which makes a difference when dealing with thousands of travelers daily. Jacob's Pickles is definitely a must-visit spot when passing through JFK Terminal 5.

The fried pickles were so doughy that you could barely see a pickle, the waffle fries were undercooked, and the pickle slaw looked like you could've gotten it at Stop and Shop deli counter and added pickle chips. It was also drenched in so much mayonnaise that I couldn't eat it. Get yourself a turkey and cheese sandwich from the grab and go and be thankful that you did.

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.

There's a small buffet area which had limited food options including lasagna and chicken. There's also a salad bar where the veggies were fresh. The one thing I really liked was their tomato based vegetable soup. The vegetables were tender, the broth was savory and hearty, yet had a good balance of the vegetables natural sweetness and the acid from the tomatoes. There's also small bar and only 1 person working so there's always a lot of people waiting around that area. Overall, it's a great option if you want to go in to grab a quick bite and use the restrooms before the flight. However, I did not find it comfortable as it was very crowded but perhaps it's better at other times of the day

I highly recommend arriving at the hotel ahead of time and exploring the beautiful location. The hotel is quite a sight to behold- packed with TWA history, designed in that beautiful retro aesthetic, and a lovely reminder of the golden age of flying. Walking around the hotel and exploring the gift shop might have been my highlight. At the pool, they're pretty strict about the timing and the lobby got pretty crowded right before the scheduled time. The pools itself is relatively small, warm, and shallow. We got some IPAs on tap (around $10 each), hung out in the pool, and watched the planes. I was a bit surprised but the overall crowd there. Lots of families with splashing children and people that really just seemed to want to be by a pool and didn't care about that specific location. Didn't necessarily expect so many people to spend money and come all the way to JFK without caring for planes but ofc that's up to them. Just something to keep in mind if you choose to come here. They also don't have changing rooms so you might want to wear your swim clothes or you'll have to change in the bathroom. I would give the hotel a 6/5 and the pool a 3/5. Would love to come back in winter for their apres ski chalet as I think the location is unbeatable.
