I'm normally a fan of Capital One lounges but the Dallas location has ruder employees and the Peloton bike has been broken for over 6 months (the seat post doesn't stick at a level so it slides all the way down). They say that they're "ordering parts" but that sounds like an excuse since it's been 6 months. Also, I used the shower once when they had a hot water issue so it ended up being a cold shower. This lounge should be better than the rest because of these additional amenities, but there are execution / service issues to contend with. read more

I paid $375 for an annual membership for the Capital One Venture X. I understand that the this airport lounge usually gets packed and there is a waitlist. I signed up for the waitlist (~2 hrs) and they only gave me 10 minutes to go in my gate. Unfortunately, the security line was very long since this is a busy airport and there were delays; I was late by about 10 mins. They didn't let me in which I was fine with but I wanted to get food from the Grab&Go since it is one of the benefits. They don't let you "grab and go" even though you are part of the waitlist. My sugar was going down and I was about to faint since I was at the airport waiting for so long but they couldn't even offer any food. Since I pay almost $400 for this benefit, I am disappointed that we can't even get food and enjoy outside of the lounge while we are on the waitlist. The IAD location has a better flow since you can get food before check-in. read more

Best airport lounge I've ever been to. Ambiance service and seating were perfect. They had the best food options out there. My favorites were the lemon white chocolate chip cookies, brownie, lox bagel and bruschetta Mac and cheese. Espresso martini was also delicious and they have tea, chai latte, water and so many things on tap too. But the best part was the to go food options. The matcha chia seed pudding and chicken sandwich were my fave. They also had water and fruits to go. We didn't have a lot of time but would have loved to check out the wellness area. I would recommend putting your name in the waitlist while you're in the security line because it can be a 30-60 min wait! read more

Capital One Lounge - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

5 stars, hands down. I've been to a ton of airport lounges all over the world and this is DEFINITELY my favorite. They are intentional about not letting it get crowded so you might need to get on a waitlist to get in but it's worth it. Food is on display all over the lounge in single serving sizes and warm meals are in little pots with lids. On reservation, you can use the relaxations rooms to nap on a massage chair (it has a rotating covering you can use if you need some darkness), shower rooms, yoga/meditation rooms as well as a prayer room you can use any time. You can get non-alcoholic drinks whenever you like and then there's a bar where the bartender can make you cocktails or pour your wine. There are different kinds of seats and it's very well paced out. No matter the length of my connection in DFW, I always make sure to stop there because I know I'll walk out with a smile... they even have little baggies so you can take some food out to eat on your flight. Staff are incredibly helpful and I cannot recommend this lounge enough. Love it there, I'll be back over and over again! read more

Greeted very warmly upon arrival. Overall, the spaces were clean and neat. I had the chicken Marsala which was seasoned. The Mac and cheese could use a bit more salt. The drinks choices were great and the bartender was lovely. I would love to come back! read more

Capital One lounges have quickly become some of my favorite places to spend a layover. There may be a wait to get in at peak times, but this ensures that there is always plenty of food, seating, and an overall pleasant environment on the interior once you are admitted. There are so many good options for food, truly a cut above most other airport lounges. DFW also has a better than DEN, though it is nice that DEN has a grab and go section outside the lounge. The staff is always extremely polite and friendly, and the DFW location even has a relaxation room where you can take a short nap. If direct flights are not possible, I will preferentially book a layover in DFW so that I can relax here. read more

Capital One Lounge - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I think one of the biggest perks of the Capital One Venture X card is being able to visit any of the Capital One lounges for unlimited visits per year! This was my first time visiting the one in DFW since I normally don't transit through here. I made it a priority to check it out, even though my flight was going out of Terminal C, and the lounge is located in Terminal D. Checking in was not too bad. I didn't have to wait too long, even though there were plenty of people shuffling in and out on a Saturday afternoon. Once inside, the set-up was similar to what I saw in Denver and DC, however I think this particular lounge looks most similar to DC's. Of the three, my favorite is the one in Denver, even though the bar can get pretty crowded. Hot food options were limited for vegetarians, but there was at least one salad, one bread item, and one pasta dish available. There were a TON of different cookies, puddings, cheesecakes, and cakes available. They didn't have bubby "sodas" available in the to-go section like they do in Denver, but they had the same to-go wraps and sandwiches. This time around, I was fixated on the Neapolitan chocolate covered pretzel balls and raisins mix. If you transit through DFW quite a bit and are a Capital One card holder, definitely do NOT miss out on this perk. Whenever I have the luxury of transiting through an airport with a Capital One lounge, I take pride in not paying for food at the airport ;) read more

Wow! This was our first visit to a Capital One lounge and I sure hope it's not our last. Heck, when you consider the $300 travel credit on the venture X card, if you visit the lounge once or twice a year, you're definitely ahead of the annual fee. We had just come in on a redeye. We disembarked our ship at 9am the previous morning. We were exhausted and I was coming down with what turned out to be a very serious upper respiratory illness that brought me to my knees. We were basically pretty miserable. We jumped on the tram and held on for dear life as we were whisked from terminal B to terminal D - give yourself 15 minutes and you can access the club from nearly anywhere in the airport. We headed upstairs and were only the second visitors of the day, yet everything was already set out - all we had to do was park our luggage, grab a cup of coffee (me, cold brew on tap, hubs, a cappuccino from the bar). The bar doesn't serve alcohol until 7am which, considering we just came off a 16 day cruise, our livers were thankful. There was a huge variety of food available - it wasn't really set up buffet style - walk around and see what's available first. The overnight oats were amazing as was the sausage and egg breakfast sandwich. What really sets this lounge apart is its grab and go section. We weren't going to be home until after lunch so I grabbed a couple of salads (strawberry spinach - delicious), some fruit and a couple of croissants and cookies that I tucked into the little to go bags that were abundantly available. I didn't actually get to my salad until the drive home but it was a blessing as there wasn't a speck of food in the house. Even at the early hour of 5, all of the employees warmly greeted us and treated us as valuable patrons - unlike some experiences we've had with other vanity card lounges. Being honest, I often schedule our layovers based on what clubs are available. I am DEFINITELY going to route us through Capital One lounge airports. These guys hit it out of the park! Great job! read more

The lounge is great if it's free. But I've heard that it'll soon not be for guests so unsure how to gauge the worthiness of it at that point. That being said, will rate based on my experiences there. First the bad. Their wait time in the queue impacted one of our experiences there. By the time we were up for queue and we made it up the elevator, our flight got cancelled and at check-in, they denied us upstairs because of that. That policy is really terrible especially in such circumstances. Not only are we left with trying to piece together what was left of our trip and get things re-scheduled and booked, we're left standing outside because something happened outside of our control. The staff's not enabled to make a judgement call and let us in. They just stand there and say we cannot enter. Frustrating. They did allow us usage of their wi-fi though. Then the good. In another visit when we finally gained entry into the lounge, the space and selection of foods and drinks fullfilled all our needs. We ate the meal we desperately needed, procured already-packed snacks, refilled our drinks, and charged our phones. Although I will say the table we were seated at, the power sockets were all broken but we set our phones and chargers at nearby neighboring sockets which we could keep an eye on. Bathrooms were too few but not super long wait when needed. Staff was cordial and cleaned up areas regularly. I would most definitely visit lounge every chance I could but it seems soon no guests will be allowed. Bummer indeed. read more

This was my first time at this lounge and it was really enjoyable. As soon I landed I checked the app to see what the wait time was. To my knowledge if there is a wait you can put yourself on the waiting list. I made my way down there and ended up waiting about 15 minutes. We were greeted and they have a hostess actually take you to your seats. It was beautiful and spacious. So many different food choices and they have coffee and chai on tap. I tried a sample of the butter pecan old fashion but it was too strong for me so I ended up getting a mimosa. I wish this was my home airport so I could come here more. I would definitely recommend! read more

Waiting in Dallas to get in is always awful; I can not get in even when the club is only half full. I end up at the AA Admirals Club. I don't even try Capital anymore. Will be canceling the Capitol One cards and fees. "A bird in the hand...." It used to be good, but not anymore. Stay away. AA Admirals Club is much better. read more

I have to say, I am very impressed by this lounge. Excellent service, clean lounge, and clean bathroom. The food here is good. They got all kinds of food including matcha chai, coffee, drinks, vegetarian food, and dessert. My brain and belly are so happy being here that I don't wanna leave to go to my flight. The lounge itself is very spacious, comfortable, and lots of table to do work. They have individual bathroom and resting areas. I highly recommend this lounge to anyone. read more

This was my first lounge experience and it set the bar high! We were flying out around 8pm on a Monday and so I was tracking the lounge status and it was busy. I joined the waitlist at 20-25 minutes when we returned our rental car and it went faster than that. I got a text about 15 minute later when we were getting off the rental car bus at the terminal, so we had 10 minutes to check in at the lounge. Luckily, we have TSA pre-check so were there right on time. The proximity to the air train allows you to get to other Terminals quickly. The lounge is in the D terminal and you check in at the bottom floor. Once through the elevator (there is another lounge upstairs), go left and check in again. From here they told us to grab any table with a reserved sign on it. There were little dishes of different foods, breads, and desserts. They even gave out bags for you to take one thing for the grab and go for your flight, including water. The rest of the drinks there were all on tap or at the bar. They had some great craft cocktails and I tried the bluebonnet drink, which was fancy and good. They also have lockers here to store your luggage, a yoga area, exercise bike, and showers. The bathrooms were clean and modern. read more

I love this place. 1000x yes! I don't want to tell anyone because I don't want to be on a stupid waitlist, but it's only fair to write this review because they are killing it here. We travel a lot and DFW is our home airport. I will keep my Venture X card just for this lounge, but luckily CapOne has a few more that we will use: Denver & Las Vegas. We don't get out to DC much. When you walk in they scan your boarding pass and your credit card, names need to match. You can bring 2 guests. Location: terminal D, after going through security, walk past all that Duty Free booze & handbags and enter the sliding doors to the right with the CapOne sign. Take the elevator up, turn left. Here's the thing with lounges, you've got to be at the airport an hour+ before your flight. Then you'll be on a plane 3+ hours in which the food situation is stark, then on landing it'll probably be at least 30-60 minutes before you get unloaded-luggage & transportation to a location to eat. So you NEED to eat before your flight. However, airport food is expensive and often mediocre. This is where the lounge has been a game changer. I get to the airport a little earlier, cruise through TSA pre-check line, get to the lounge and have a relaxing cocktail & meal before boarding. They even have little cartons of water I can grab to-go in case I sleep through drink service on my flight. Once you're in, find some seats & park your luggage. At the bar they have a menu of craft cocktails, wines and beers, these are free. You can get a few high end liquors for a surcharge but the regular drinks are great. The bar also has an espresso machine. Be sure to tip. In the center of the lounge is four walls that you can take food from. There are self serve soda and water machines on one wall. Walk around it and see all the options. Some are in packages to go in case you don't have time to sit. Grab a silver tray from the lower shelf and take a few little plate & pots to try (mango shrimp ceviche and the Chicken Tikka Masala are my faves) as well as a napkin and flatware. Enjoy at your table and repeat. On recent visit I had an hour before my flight to Seattle. My two (always hungry) teenage boys were with me. Our flight was delayed an additional 2 hours. This place was a life (and sanity) saver. The boys hooked up to the WiFi, I got a window view of the runway and a second cocktail. They visited the food walls again and again. All was right in the world. There are little paper bags by the cookies & brownies so you can take it to go. Also, on your way out of the lounge TAKE the little chocolate bar that they hand you. It's so good. By the time you get to your hotel you'll think "I wish I had a little chocolate" and boom. They've thought of everything. The staff is outstanding. Every time we visit they are friendly and keeping the place spotless and the bartenders are making fantastic drinks. I'm getting my husband a card so he can visit when he's travelling without me. read more

Getting off a 12+ hour flight back from New Zealand and heading right to the DFW Capital One Lounge for the first time has to be one of the biggest sighs of relief I've ever had. This lounge is simply immaculate: updated current design, awesome food options, great seating, beverages galore and wonderful service. I wish we had more time to stick around and enjoy! SPACE: The space is centered around a pillar in the middle: the hub for food. There is a variety of seating options, with most being tables and chairs, and a few larger/comfier chairs. AMENITIES: They offer a shower suite you can schedule, nursing room, cycling and yoga room, relaxation room and faith practice room as well. FOOD: I love how the food is categorized and displayed around the center pillar! Everything we tried was delicious. I love the pre-portioned variety of options and options for on the go. I'd love to see a few more hot options - or served even hotter. DRINK: We arrived in the morning, so bee-lined for the draft chai, draft latte, draft cold brew and teas. They had a full bar and other beverages as well, but the serve yourself draft was the highlight! The photos speak for itself - flying through DFW or another Capital One Lounge spot whenever we can to enjoy! read more

Pros: "free" meal, shower facilities, a grab and go meal option for those with tight connections, and great local art Cons: lower quality than other credit card lounges via weaker branding and lagging food options, departure boards only for D gates, and loooong wait times Generally, not my favorite upscale lounge, but surely a step up from the general priority pass level lounges. I was quoted a 45 minute wait and admitted an hour later. This lounge would have done me no good if my layover was less than 2 hours. Like the Chase Sapphire lounge network, Capital One is trying to build their lounges out with an eye to unique experiences tailored to their locations. Usually this comes out in food choices, art, interior design, and local drinks. This effort is much weaker than the one put forward by the Chase lounge network. The food in no way screams Texas but the drinks are much more tailored (See themed drinks menu). Most of the food is forgettable. I recommend the Cucumber canapés and the Fontina Fondue Mac & Cheese. After two visits, I have found the salads small and wilted. The art choices are great. This really doesn't make up for lackluster auxiliary services when compared to their competition; their shower and exercise/wellness facilities are cramped and functional with no eye to design. In the arms race for strong lounge networks and brands, I think Capital One is losing. My last gripe is the lack of information about departures out of any of the other terminals. I stopped here before a flight out of the nearby E terminal but I have no quick way of checking the departure board because all of the digital boards in the lounge only focus on the D gates. read more

I remember when it first opened.. amazing grab and go section with so many delicious hot foods to choose from.. everything was single portioned and delicious.. and a few years later... it remained the same! I will say this visit did not have any juices and the selection has went down. They have premixed signature drinks now.. Other than that. Still above and beyond! This lounge is great! Service, amenities and the view is beautiful. read more

Excellent team service here. All the staff were amazing. They were so attentive. Phenomenal customer service. Everything is complimentary including their Togo items. You get your Togo bag from the front desk. Drinks were also free and they make your espresso at the bar. Their chocolate croissants and fudge brownies were delicious. There's many places to sit and enjoy the view of planes taking off and landing. They have big tables for larger groups. Bathroom was sparkling clean. I took advantage of their work bar station with plenty of plugins to charge my phones and laptop. I managed get work done at the lounge during my few hours layover in Dallas. Well worth being a Capital One member. I highly recommend and will be coming here during my layover. Cheers! read more

If you're looking for a nice relaxing lounge to sit at, highly recommend coming to Capital One Lounge (if you have the card!) Overall, been here twice and both times have been awesome. Here are some things to note: Wait Times: During peak hours, there can be a waiting list. Just check your Cap One app ahead of time and if there is a wait, you can put yourself on there. A text will be sent to you when it's your turn :) Capacity: Even at peak hours, this lounge didn't feel overly crowded. So kudos to Capital One in crowd control. Food: Love the selection of hot and cold food here!! :D Honestly, I was very surprised at how tasty the food was. For those who are in a rush and can't stay long, there are to go options you can grab! Definitely get the yummy pre made sandwiches, salads, desserts and even drinks (tea/coffee/water) to go. Amenities: If you're here, take full advantage of the amenities! Do note that you'll have to put in a reservation with the front desk to use: 1. Shower ~ super nice and clean 2. Relaxation room ~ there's a cool machine pod you can lay in and listen to peaceful music for 20 min 3. Yoga / Exercise room ~ get your stretch / bike on! 4. Free lockers ~ no need to worry about luggage! Pretty spacious for carry on + personal item. Staff: Very welcoming and nice! Overall, I'll try to make Dallas or any other airport with Capital One lounge be a layover stop since it's totally worth it. read more

Can't believe I'm writing about an airport lounge but DFW C1 Lounge is just too good to not talk about. There's a wide variety of food that's always being replenished. It's not bad either, definitely very good quality and tasty. Brunch, lunch, and dinner all feature different menus, and if you're in a rush, you can just grab any of the pre-packaged to-go foods (which are pretty good). Bar is all you can drink and bartenders are exceptionally friendly and kind. Lots of amenities like showers, meeting rooms, yoga, etc. are offered. Great wifi and you can drop off your luggage. Ambiance is really great; I love the design of the lounge. Also, the bathrooms are really peaceful lol and there's like some rainforest sounds playing. Typically, there is a line for the bathrooms but hopefully people don't take too long. I've been to two out of three C1 lounges and this is definitely the one I prefer more. Worth getting the VentureX card, especially since they offer so many more perks. I have Priority Pass as well so I've been to a handful of lounges and this is definitely at the top overall. read more

Capital One Lounge - Lunch time - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I've been to many airport lounges and this by far has been the best domestic lounge I've visited. It's clean, spacious and the food is actually very delicious and everything is fresh. No pre-packed food or chips. No stale salad bar or stale soup. And the bar is really good too. They actually make craft cocktails and have a good wine selection. The showers and bathrooms are really nice too. This is what I expect when I go to other lounges and have been consistently let down. read more

Capital one lounges never disappoint! You can join the waitlist online and you'll get a notification when the lounge is ready for you! Super convenient getting the process started before physically getting to the lounge. It is always very clean and not typically packed to the point where you can't find somewhere to sit. There are outlets EVERYWHERE so you're all set wherever you sit! They always have a wide selection of sweet, savory and healthy options. They also have a lot of to go options if you're in a rush! The bar has a variety of cocktails, wine, spirits, beer, champagne! If you have the opportunity to visit a capital one lounge, I highly recommend it! read more

Nothing but good things to say about the Capital One Lounge in Dallas. It was my first time being in an airport lounge, ever so I had no clue what to expect. Upon initially entering, I see food and coffee thinking I'm just going to get a discount but no! The very friendly and respectful attendant, after swiping, my card said everything was complementary, and after a long flight with a long layover, that was music to my ears. There was plenty of space to sit in plenty of things to eat and comfortable seating. Both savory and sweet. Plus complementary alcoholic beverages, which was the icing on top of the cake. Upon leaving they have small bags to take a couple to go items, and a piece of chocolate. My only complaint is that I didn't have more time to spend here. read more

Impressed is an understatement. I've been wanting to do a layover in DFW for so long just to check out this lounge. I had 20 minutes to explore and eat and I was very impressed. The aesthetics, service, quality of food was unmatched. I tried all of the different dishes they had and they were all top-notch quality. Staff were continuously walking around making sure everything was tidy and organized. They were also constantly refilling the food stations. I cannot wait to come back in a few weeks and try some drinks and really enjoy the lounge some more!! Please open one in IAH houston airport and AUS austin airport!!! read more

Capital One Lounge - Food - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Cap One Lounge has been an experience that I look forward to ever since the first time I got to try it 2 years ago. I have even recommended it to another friend who I suggested to switch from AmEx 2 years ago to sign up for a Venture Rewards card, based on the premium benefits I have experienced. We have been to Cap One Lounge in DFW twice now. The lounge is super clean, food is amazing with a chef-inspired menu that rivals some of the top fine dining fusion restaurants, service and overall experience is way superior than other travel lounges we have experienced so far. They have 2 relaxation rooms, a fitness room, and shower room that are available for longer layovers. Huge shout out to Joel and Anthony for providing excellent, friendliest service and overall experience that made us feel special! Thank you so much for going the extra mile in providing excellent service to me and my husband. And not just to us, the rest of the guests as well so keep that up! We look forward to being back so see you again later this year. read more

Very excited to visit the Capital One Lounge at DFW - it's the best lounge I've visited in the US for sure. (London's British Airways Lounges are my favorite overall.) We lucked into no wait on our two stops here this week. The first time, we found seating right away but the second visit was much busier, so it took more time. As you enter, there's a display of food packaged up for you to take on the way out for your next flight. There were four sandwiches, including almond butter and jelly, turkey pastrami, chicken salad and a veggie option. There were also two salads, a banana tiramisu, a coconut chia pudding and another yogurt parfait. Boxes of water, plus four different snack mixes and three types of whole fresh fruit were also set up there. Walking around to the side, you find a big display of cookies, gluten-free brownies, scones, baklava, croissants, and cream-filled profiteroles. Not only are there little plates here, but also small bags to take some with you on your next flight! YUM. Everything was delicious here! Turn around, and you'll see heated individually plates dishes - there was a bimbibap, spicy cauliflower rice with mushrooms, mac and cheese, mac and cheese with bacon, a spicy soup, and maybe something else. On the other side, there were chilled items like french onion deviled eggs, flatbread with jam and gorgonzola, two salads, crudite with a spicy hummus, and I'm sure I'm forgetting another item or two. The food items apparently stay the same for a month or two - oh how I wish they were changed on a daily rotation, so we could've tried other dishes on our return trip! Overall, the dishes were just too much - too spicy or some un-kid-friendly ingredients. My kid didn't even like the mac and cheese (claimed it was spicy?!), and only wanted the cookies. Oy. ;) We had a very long layover on our return, and we were allowed to enter this lounge at the 3 hour mark before our departure. I asked to use one of the shower rooms and was given one quickly. It looked beautiful, but I could not figure out how to get hot water - it was hot for mere seconds and then the hot water was gooooooooone. Thankfully I hadn't put the shampoo in my hair yet! I mentioned this at the front desk when checking out of the shower room, and the guy just shrugged at me. Fooey. CapOne, I hope you open at SFO or SJC! read more

Having access to this lounge in DFW is such a perk of being a Capital One Venture X cardholder!! This was my first time visiting this lounge and it was such a good experience. And love that they allow up to two complimentary guests per visit as well :) Ambiance: This lounge is very open and has a lot of seating whether you're looking to just relax on a couch or get some work done at a table. We were there around evening time and while there were a good number of people at the lounge, it never felt too crowded. Food: The food here was AMAZING!! Not only do they have a variety of hot foods (all served in small dishes so you can try a bunch of different things) for you to enjoy in the lounge, but they also offer grab-and-go sandwiches / desserts / drinks for you to take on your flight. My boyfriend and I tried almost all of the hot food between the two of us, and we also got to enjoy some of the pastries and desserts. My favorites were definitely the bacon mac and cheese, chipotle deviled eggs (as someone who loves deviled eggs in general), and the chocolate croissant. When we left, we each grabbed a boxed sandwich to go along with a bottle of juice and a cookies & cream parfait cup for our nighttime flight. Plus they have pre-wrapped cake pops that you can take at the front desk! Amenities: The bathrooms here are individual rooms and were very clean, and they also have showers plus relaxation rooms and whatnot if that's what you're looking for. There are also a lot of charging outlets around the seating area which I found to be very helpful during our time here. read more

Love love love!!! Finally got a chance to use my 2 x a year access pass to the capitol one lounge! They so far only have one lounge, I heard the next one is in Denver. This lounge is pretty big. They have a lot of seating. Overall not loud, random music playing in the background. Mostly families here. Food options: little crockpots of goodies, hot; I had the spicy cauliflower, saucy meatball, devils eggs, hummus with some sliced squash. Desserts and breakfast items include croissants, brownie and choco chip cookies. Drink options: coffee, cold and hot, alcohol you pay for, otherwise there is a to go section where you can grab fresh fruit juices and salads. Amazing overall experience. Servers are quick to come by to clear your table. They also have showers!!! Will come back. read more

I'll probably be an outlier here, but I came here a lot when it first opened. I have food allergies, and whenever I was allergic to something, the menu's regular rotation would mean I could probably get something else the next time. When the menu froze 6 or so months ago, I asked for a modified version of their Chicken Tinga (no cheese) and I received it. It was delicious. The next few times I was refused. I was pregnant, and the free booze was not an incentive. I usually love Capital One products, so this the first time I've felt a little baited and switched. The lounge went from incredible food and the ability to pop in and out before a flight to unchanging menus and long waits. This might be fine for a casual flyer who comes in once or twice a year, but it's hard for me not to compare it to what it was even a year ago. read more

My Venture card allows me access twice per year. I am considering the Venture X upgrade, so this lounge helps me determine whether it's worth it or not. I am very rarely in DFW, but I do go through IAD and DEN much more often, so when those two open, it will be GOLD for me. The DFW space was smaller than a lot of lounges, but there were still a few places to comfortably sit, even though it was crowded. The variety of food and drink was out of this world. My favorites were this mushroom/cauliflower rice dish and the bacon Mac & cheese. The baklava was a nice way to end my meal. I loved the butter pecan old fashioned, which was on-tap. I was concerned it would be too sweet for my taste, but it was not. When the bartender gave it to me without having to mix anything, I was surprised! Super simple and delicious. I also tried the peach iced tea cocktail and it was just as good. I also love the generous to-go options- they make it so easy for you! I took a sandwich with me for later and a couple cookies. The cookies were a little sweet for my taste, but still a generous touch. I didn't get to try the relaxation rooms or showers or anything, but they looked nice. Bathrooms were clean, but I think they could use a couple more- there was a line most of the time I was there. Other than that, great space! Can't wait for IAD and DEN to open. read more

If you have even an hour layover.... You can make it! That's what a friend told me, along with "get the Mac n cheese!" As a Venture X cardholder, I *had* to check it out. We had a 1.5 hr layover and were going from terminal A to D which is the farthest stretch! Made it with plenty of time to enjoy and go back. When we arrived, they said it was full and to put our name down. I put my name down and automatically got a text saying I'm off the waitlist? So there was no wait and even if it was busy, my friend and I got a seat pretty quickly. We were immediately greeted by complimentary cake pops! The theme was definitely "surrounded by dessert" as there were crumbl boxes everywhere. There were a lot of amenities included that we didn't have enough time to check out: showers (no fee), yoga and wellness room, etc. Bathrooms were single stall A beautiful lounge. The food options were presented in a grab and go walk, not cafeteria-like like most lounges. There were plenty vegetarian options. For food, I had the bruschetta and bacon mac n cheese - so good! For dessert - I had the mini pain au chocolat (just ok), dark chocolate macadamia cookie (so good! Not too sweet), and the salted caramel cookie (good as well). There were plenty of bags to load up to go. Wouldn't mind a longer layover just to spend more time here! read more

Capital One Lounge - Bacon Mac n cheese - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

It's giving high end restaurant and relaxing atmosphere. This DFW location is one of the best lounges around. Food is presented beautifully in individual small plates just like fine dining restaurants. The ingredients are fresh and something for everyone. They have an espresso bar, dessert section, a to-go area of delicious sandwiches and salads. And best of all amazing bartenders with cocktails on tap and some of the best espresso martinis around! Service is friendly and food is constantly replenished. This location makes a great international layover. You can refresh in a shower room, hop on a bike or do some yoga, in the specialty rooms. You may have to take the Sky Link to this place if you are not in terminal D. If you have the access via credit card or other means, this place is definitely worth it. I would even adjust my travel plans to make sure our layover is long enough to enjoy our time here! read more

I was looking forward to finally trying a Capital One Lounge! I was thoroughly impressed. They had a wait, but I got in the virtual queue a little early so when I finally made it to the lounge I was able to go in. There was so much space, service was fast, bar was fast and made great drinks. The front desk was friendly and made me feel like I was a VIP member. Going in a week and excited to check it out again at a different time frame read more
