I went early to the lounge so there was no line but I hear it can be really busy!!! They offered me tea on a tea cart with a lemon square. I liked that there was bathroom, snacks to go and a cafe bar! The food was really good and all vegetarian minus a few. I wish I had a capital one where I lived. Everyone was so pleasant especially Brian read more

Clean, efficiently ran and great relaxing vibe. The food is also great and made with care and effort. I can't wait to fly out of Dulles. I might come early just to hang in the lounge next time read more

Capital One lounge has been such a valuable resource to me the past year. I've had so many trips enhanced by this spot. Bottomless drinks and food, clean private bathrooms, awesome coffee bar. The lounge sets the standard for what luxury lounges should be. read more

Great lounge at Dulles with plenty of small bites to enjoy and excellent drinks. I especially love their Old Fashioned. There's ample seating, food to-go options, a bar, and a café bar. The lounge is consistently clean, the staff is very nice, the food keeps coming, and the restrooms are well-maintained. read more

Having been to the Denver capital one lounge earlier this month, I think IAD's is a lot more chill. The set-up is a bit weird and inconvenient, but I felt like I could relax as it didn't feel as crowded as the lounge in Denver. I was able to get a white chocolate latte (which tasted delicious!) and help myself to bites from the hot bar. The jam-filled pancake in a skillet was the most intriguing, and a sticky granola bowl with yogurt helped to balance it out! I was also able to get lunch to go! They have an ample amount of to-go foods, drinks, and snacks. I helped myself to a veggie wrap, a deconstructed key lime pie cup, and blueberry pretzels! I will need to fly through IAD more often---this lounge definitely ranks up at the top! read more

This lounge is frequently busy, so make sure to join the wait-list from the capital one app before you get to the airport. Not the largest lounge, there can be a bit of a flow issue around the food. It's difficult to fit a lot of food on your tray, as all the food comes in small plates or non-plate containers such as mini pans, so be prepared to take multiple trips to the food bar to try everything. Be warned that it may take a while for staff to come remove your finished tray when it's busy. Great decor, great food, but it's popularity is it's weakness, as the home airport of Capital One's headquarters. read more

Capital One Lounge - You'll be taking multiple trips to try all the food, it won't all fit on your tray - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dulles, Virginia

I love this lounge. I've been here twice now. Once in the morning in December and once in the afternoon in November. I have experienced both their afternoon service and their morning service. Both their breakfast service and their afternoon service was excellent. The first time I went the staff was nice, this was in the afternoon. The second time I went in the morning they were extremely friendly and amicable. I love how there are seven sections: a spirits bar, a coffee bar, a to-go section, a sweet section, a drinks section, a hot food section, and a quiet section to work. What I particularly like about this lounge from other lounges is the to-go food. The to-go feature with pre-made meals if you're in a time crunch is particularly great. Also, I get hungry on flights longer than 5 hours and the food from this lounge is better than the airlines these days. Their signature Cherry-Blossom chocolate is also a stunner . The only piece of critique I have for this lounge is there is an obvious lack of hearty meals which is a draw of some other lounges. I will not name the one I am thinking of but if I was hungry for a true meal rather than grazing on tapas I would choose that lounge over this one. So on the preferences side, if you are looking for a true meal before your flight this is not the lounge for you. But it definitely caters towards those who like little bites and cute drinks! read more

Love this lounge! It's the best part of flying from Dulles Airport. They changed the menus so they don't have to e lamb meatballs, but I can heartily recommend the shrimp with grits and the Mexican corn. Yummy! Also, they have great cocktails. I had a delicious whiskey based cocktail. But apparently, to those on the Tik Tok universe, the cocktail to order is the bees knees! Unique presentation as I could see from the other tables. read more

I haven't been to too many lounges, but the Capital One Venture X Lounge is definitely the best I've been to so far. It's located right past security (TSA pre-check), which was very convenient. The people working this past Christmas Eve were extremely pleasant. I only had to wait about 20 minutes in the afternoon before I was able to enter. After checking in, to your left, there is a pretty extensive coffee bar. There are a couple baristas who will craft any of their espresso drinks for you and pastries you can get to go along with your coffee. On the side, there are self-serving coffee options (cold brew, oatmilk draft latte from La Colombe -- sadly they were out) if you aren't feeling an espresso drink or don't feel like waiting in line. There is a big cafeteria/seating area in the back with lots of food and a whole bar if you want drinks. They had a lot of small plates, bite-sized options, which is great for sampling every option as well as reducing food waste. I got to try everything, but my personal favorites were the double chocolate brownies, prosciutto toast (slightly spicy, with some goat cheese and fruity sweetness), the cheese & salami sampler and the corn/cheese grits. I thought the tater tots with cheese and chicken sausage with mashed potatoes were quite solid, but they were a bit stale from sitting out too long. My favorite part about this lounge is that you can grab food (sandwiches, parfaits, acai bowls, etc.) and drinks (water, sparkling, soda, etc.) to go. You can ask the staff for a to-go back and pack some food for your flight. I brought back some sandwiches for my mom, who really enjoyed the turkey sandwich. Extremely generous, and the food is good. I'll never have to spend money for food on flight if I continue to fly out of IAD. Solid experience. read more

3/17/2025 Everything was perfect. They have a grab and go section, a coffee bar, a parent room, conference room. I heard buffet so i hightailed it there even with just less than an hour layover. Presentation was perfect, portion size just right to see if I like it, clean and quiet. Food was sooo good, you can see the chefs walking around in their chefs hat and uniform. I loved the hash and surprising also loved the breakfast sandwich. Have to try it just once to see what it's like. read more

This is like the Ritz Carlton of all lounges. I'm happy that I am a Capital One Venture X card holder for whom these lounges are targeted. Welcome experience was like a hotel check-in, extremely courteous. The decor is like a 5 star hotel lobby with artwork and extremely large space for seating. The bar is the size of a restaurant bar with excellent cocktails and local beer. Good food in a airport lounge is rare. This place had world class food. Spicy Thai shrimp bao, deviled eggs, crostini spiced and more. A great fountain of excellent sodas. The staff is extremely courteous. They have a coffee bar and a to-go for counter, right at the entrance. We even got chocolate on our way out. This was a world class experience, everything we would expect from Capital One. read more

I've been to this lounge multiple times now and enjoy it every time. This time it was the first time that I was turned away because the lounge was at capacity. When there is physically no space there is not much you can do, but what I think is unacceptable is that we couldn't even take one of the grab and go items that are right by the door. We were told there is a waitlist for that as well. Absolutely ridiculous to me. read more

We had trouble finding the place. The signs were not clear and we had to asked airport staff. It offered a selection of complimentary amenities throughout the lounge, including the working room, parents room and a children's play area. There were plenty of sofas that were equipped within charging stations. The atmosphere was very relaxing. I felt like i was sipping tea in my own living room with soft music in the background. The service was outstanding, especially the bartender who was cheerful and efficient. It had a refresh drink station and a refuel snack food/tapas station. It also had a limited selection of desserts. Some of them were quite tasty. Highly recommend to stop by for a quick charge before your flight. read more

The Capital One Venture X Lounge recently opened up at Dulles, right inside the main terminal past the security checkpoint. Currently, they're in their soft opening phase in which the hours are reduced, which will soon transition into their standard hours. There are lockers where you can store your belongings, gender-neutral restrooms, a work area with plenty of access to power/USB outlets, and even a children's area with appropriate seating. The grab-and-go section has various beverages, granola bowls, salads, sandwiches, pastries, and even cold brew on tap (Colombe!). There's even a nice bar area, where it features the Bee's Knees, that some may recognize from trying at Bresca! I also liked that they had multiple flight boards throughout the lounge area so you're always in the loop of all updates on flights. There are no shower stations here. Staff are friendly! Note that you must hold a Capital One Venture Rewards card to access. +Colombe on tap! +located in Dulles' main terminal +friendly staff read more

Decent Lounge. Tasty food. Great service. Good coffee baristas. Lots of two-steps up and down so makes it interesting for roller cases. Half the size of the one in DFW. read more

I've been to Centurion lounges, American, United, Delta, and a few other Priority pass lounges and I definitely loved this one!! As a capital one member with a Venture card I only get two visits a year but to try it while it's still new, it was quite worth it. The lounge has some nice views but no TVs which was kind of a nice change to not have news or sports blaring. The bartender was top notch- she took care of us, making great cocktails and stopping in and topping off our beers before we left. Usually the bartenders are so busy your just another number but this particular bartender went above and beyond. Food choices were good and hot! We enjoyed the breakfast, with the breakfast sandwiches, potato kugel, strawberry pop tarts, and cheesy grits as the main star of the show. The special Lost Rhino beer was nice and so was the sunset spritz. No showers but nice bathrooms and working spaces. The grab and go area was the coolest thing- I personally hate airline food but knowing I could take a pre packaged sandwich, trail mix or a drink was awesome! read more

Hot finger foods were very tasty and the drinks were phenomenal. The standout for me was the Thai shrimp bao. The bartenders are so friendly and accommodating. I really was in a quandary. i really wanted the non alcoholic Rock Creek refresher which had green tea, cucumber and bubbling yuzu. but also wanted a splash of alcohol to help relax me for the upcoming 14 hour flight to Doha and another 9 and half hour to the Philippines. The bartender realized my indecision and just offered to add Tito's or Kettle one vodka. It was a no brainer. I had one and it was epic! This is very nice chill lounge. Nice views and at the time of our visit it was half empty. So relaxing and It's right outside TSA pre. read more

Exciting to see another CapOne lounge pop up at a home airport. I have spent significant frequency at the DFW location. Of course brand spanking new is always great. Food, drink, and snack selections are the high quality tapas style as expected, with grab and go options, currently still unique to CapOne. One downside is the staff here. Perhaps more training is needed, but the staff is nowhere near as pleasant and welcoming as the DFW staff is. Even the barista who made my latte..it didn't taste as good as DFW's. Work to be done but great to see a quality lounge at IAD that isn't overrun with priority pass guests!! read more

Capital One Lounge - Old fashioned with grub! - Airport Lounges Near Me - Dulles, Virginia

The Capital One airport lounge at Dulles is a haven for travelers seeking comfort and convenience. The ambiance exudes relaxation, boasting ample space equipped with plentiful outlets, ensuring a stress-free charging experience. The culinary offerings are a standout, with delectable options like the guacamole and deviled eggs. The bar doesn't disappoint either, especially with the must-try Bee's Knees cocktail, complemented by the friendly bartenders who add to the overall enjoyable atmosphere. The only downside might be the limited access window, allowing entry only 3 hours prior to your flight. However, its strategic location right across the TSA Precheck entrance makes it easily accessible. You can also gather some grab-and-go's sandwiches and snacks and a coffee/drink made by their barista. Overall, a great lounge and will be returning soon. read more

Very friendly front desk staff... Food: - they have a to-go area which is nice. The sandwich bread is kind of hard but otherwise, ok. - The food is better than at the United Club. There are more options. - They have a good selection of beverages. Nothing name brand which is ok. - they did run out of food a lot. So you had to jump at it as they put it out. Space: - nice and clean. No ramps so for those with wheel chairs. Not a big deal, I had rolling luggage but it wasn't hard to carry them up two steps. - it's a smaller lounge but it wasn't too packed when we went. read more

Had a 3 hour delay for my fly through but this lounge made the time go by much faster. Everyone was friendly and I ate so much food. Also got coffee and a cocktail for free. I hope I can hit this lounge on the way back too hopefully no delay. Only issue is that it's kind of hidden. Basically you have to look for an elevator with minimal Signage near a Dunkin' Donuts in the main terminal. Also the bathroom are very clean! read more

After feeling like a herd of cows in this airport it was a little refreshing to be in a lounge with less crowds of people. Service was nice as far as sitting us down to our table area and foods being refilled. This lounge was nicer than other lounges I've been to. There were ample outlets for recharging your devices. This is well worth going to but it was hard to find for sure. Ask where it is so you're not hunting for it. read more

This is an excellent lounge and right outside of TSA security checkpoint. I came in October and it was clean and not too crowded. They had great food. The coffee bar was great too with great staff and cute drinks. They also have to-go food, drinks, utensils, and bags for you to take for an onboard meal. There was plenty of outlets and the seats were pretty comfy too. This really tempts me to go and get the Venture X card so I can get into the lounges myself! read more

Located right after TSA Precheck before gate transportation, the Capital One Venture X Lounge is the nicest lounge in IAD right now since it's the newest and has a good amount of the bells and whistles that you can think of for a lounge. The food and beverage selection here is hands down the best that I've ever had at any airport lounge (so far). The food is fresh and there's a wide variety for different dietary restrictions and/or preferences. There's a self-serve craft soda machine as well as a to-go station filled with fresh fruits, sandwiches, salads, and beverages. There's also a coffee bar where they can create a custom latte or you can also self-serve cold brew. I haven't partaken in the alcoholic beverages but there's a full service bar as well. The overall lounge is a U-shape space with different types of seating and plenty of outlets for your charging needs. There are also plenty of spacious bathrooms as well as family bathrooms for those with little ones which is always appreciated for a parent like myself. Plates and trash are picked up frequently from staff. The customer service was exceptional from check-in to leaving. The staff is friendly, engaging, and accommodating to ensure that you have a good experience in the lounge. When I was taking a few items from the to-go station, the staff restocking the station offered me a bag to put everything in! As our little family was leaving, we were offered cherry blossom chocolates (which also feature a QR code so you can submit a review for them!). read more

The staff is very attentive and the ambiance is very relaxing...Glad we got to visit this place, definitely we'll be coming back again on our next layover! read more

Just past the TSA precheck, this lounge is hidden behind a large column. You show your boarding pass and a Capital One Venture X credit card. It's pretty nice here. They have a full bar setup and a self serve small bites section. They also offer a to-go station where food is already packaged for your takeout. With only a short time before our flight, we did imbibe in a couple of mimosas and Bloody Mary's, all generous pours. The bar server was very attentive. read more

The newly opened lounge at IAD is conveniently located for those with TSA Precheck or Clear just past the checkpoint and one floor up. People at the counter were friendly and quickly checked your card and flight tickets. There is a pre-packaged food and drink to-go area at the front with a variety of options if you are in a rush. The seating area includes a mix of bar, booth, and tables with some more secluded options next to power outlets for those who need to get some work done. The buffet has a good a wide range from soups, appetizers, and some entrees. Small portion sizes but it's a buffet, just go back again! The quality of food pleasantly surprised us for a lounge. The bar had plenty of cocktails, local beers, tea, and coffee options. Lastly, there were plenty of bathrooms throughout the lounge which were nicely stocked and very clean which is nice to have compared to the older bathrooms scattered throughout the terminals. read more

My friend took me to the Capital One Venture X Lounge at Dulles last week on our way to Dublin. It was my first airport lounge, and it probably spoiled me for any others! Full bar (cocktails, wine, beer), bites to go (sandwiches, hummus, fruit), coffee bar, a hot food bar (lots of small plates to choose from) - all free if you have access to enter. The seating was comfortable and spacious, and it had cool vibes. The bartender was exceptionally grumpy, and some of the small plates weren't great (but overall, the food was quite good) are my only complaints. If you have access to the lounge, I definitely recommend checking it out if you have access. read more

The one in Dallas is a step up from this, but over-all this was not a bad place to spend some time. I recently upgraded to Venture X, so I am lounge-hopping to my heart's content. I've been there twice. Once alone and once I took two friends. We found the food to be plentiful and good. Everyone who works there is very nice, except for one of the coffee baristas. He was a little weird with me- I won't get into the details, but he seemed unusually angry or upset about something. Maybe just a bad day. Everyone else was awesome. We had to wait about 15 minutes for clearance and we were given a specific table, which was actually great, because we didn't have to search for space ourselves. It is a bit crowded with not enough bathrooms and no showers available like some of its counterparts. I can't wait to try the one in Denver. read more

So I finally got a chance to check out the long-awaited opening of the IAD C1 lounge. Accessed via C1VX. Pros: - super convenient main terminal location, just past security (tsa precheck / clear) - high quality F&B offerings - generous amount of grab-n-go options (croissants, sandwiches, drinks, snacks, etc.) Cons: - overall size (feels cramped compared to DFW/DEN) - overall shape (odd horseshoe layout) with a good amt of up/down (via stairs) adding complexity. a simple (flat, open) layout would have been better. - lack of ramps (inconvenient for carry-on luggage) - mundane tarmac views - lack of showers, yoga/fitness/relaxation rooms I would have loved to give 5 stars; however, IMO, it isn't 5-star worthy bc it simply doesn't measure up to some of the higher caliber lounges. When comparing the (3) C1 lounges in existence, DFW & DEN are a lot more attractive than IAD. EDIT: The BOS & LGA Sapphire lounges seem a lot more attractive / 5-Star worthy. Sure, it's IAD's latest/greatest, but that's honestly not saying much considering the low bar, lack of competition... read more

Here to give this 6 week old lounge a 5/5. Yes it was packed, my husband is the card holder so I got to be a guest, but WOW is it nice. And so was everyone working! We had to circle to find a seat but ended up in a nice telephone booth spot along the far side so we got to relax with the baby. The bar was so pretty and what a great drink variety. Food also was good, went back for seconds. Overall, nicest lounge I've been to! read more

My first experience here was amazing because it wasn't crowded at all! However, my more recent experience was not as great. The lounge was overcrowded, it took ages to get a drink from the bar, and the food was exactly the same as the first time I was there. I have a few suggestions on how they could improve the experience: 1. Corporate capital one can increase the fees of the venture x card and make the lounges more exclusive. 2. Increase the number of staff for peak hours 3. Switch up the food menu. Have a wider assortment of dishes and select a subset of those options so there's variety for frequent travelers 4. Have wine and beer more easily accessible for faster service to cut down on the bar line 5. Have better signage for the lounge wait time / existence of a waiting list 6. Have a more typical buffet setup instead of individual plates to reduce dishwashing time and environmental impact. Overall, the lounge is very pretty but was definitely not built to handle the number of travelers at Dulles. There's only 3 bathrooms and no showers. The food is good but more variety would be appreciated. The staff have always been friendly, but the lounge is understaffed during peak hours. Lastly, definitely hit up the grab and go food if you're short on time! I loved the corn salad and banh mi sandwich. I recommend that they take the ham sandwich off the menu or get better ham for the sandwich. read more
