The lounge had a very business-like aesthetic, accentuated by the square furniture and digital ad walls. With that said, there weren't too many customers in the middle of the day, which was nice. As a COVID precaution, everyone getting food needed to wear gloves to serve themselves. The food itself was tasty! Especially loved the pasta dish they had that day. There were also pastries, not to mention aperol spritzes at the bar. Customer service was fantastic. Your empty plate never sat on a table for more than few minutes with their hawk eyes. YUL is a fantastic airport, and this lounge is the perfect complement.

It's a good-sized airport but still very easy to navigate and completely walkable. The airport appears to have been recently updated (almost new) with a sleek and modern design throughout. What stood out most to me was how empty it felt both on arrival and departure. There were plenty of open seats, not crowded at all. The biggest downside was the food selection, especially in the U.S. terminal. There were only a couple dining options and one lounge with fairly underwhelming food offerings. That said, gates and flight information were easy to find, and overall the airport functions efficiently and smoothly. Next time I'd probably get my own food before heading to the airport, but otherwise it does exactly what you need it to do.

airport lounges can be hit or miss, so i was pleasantly surprised by this little oasis tucked…read moreinside the domestic departures area of montréal-trudeau international airport (yul). located near boarding gate 1, the lounge is airside after security checkpoint a. simply turn right after security and you'll find it behind starbucks. there are only two lounges serving domestic departures at yul, this one and the air canada maple leaf lounge, so it's no surprise they get busy. unfortunately, no one enjoys being turned away from a lounge they're entitled to access, especially when it means wandering the terminal before coming back. i was initially placed on the waitlist, but i appreciated receiving a text message as soon as space became available. one thing to keep in mind is that preference is given to amex cardholders, so your wait may vary depending on how busy it is. what surprised me, though, was that we weren't even allowed to wait in the takeaway area to charge our devices. i had thought that space was intended for guests waiting to enter, but we were asked to leave and return when we received the text. it wasn't a huge inconvenience, but it would have been nice to have somewhere comfortable to wait instead of roaming the terminal. once inside, the experience improved considerably. food is ordered through a qr code at your table, while coffee, tea, premade salads, desserts, are available from the self serve stations. during my visit, the lunch and dinner menu offered avocado toast, orecchiette salsiccia, hot dog, creamy lemon and caper chicken, and house made blondie with ice cream along with alcohol, sparkling and champagne. i got the roasted chicken with basil, confit garlic potatoes, two-colour cauliflower, and a lemon caper sauce. everything was fresh, the chicken was tender, and the potatoes were nicely cooked. it was a surprisingly satisfying meal and definitely a step above typical airport food. the lounge itself was clean, modern, and noticeably quieter than the terminal outside. after finding a comfortable seat, it was easy to unwind with a meal, a coffee, and a chance to recharge...both myself and my phone. one thing worth knowing before you settle in: there are no washrooms inside the lounge, no showers. if nature calls, you'll need to leave the lounge and use the public airport washrooms before returning. overall, i enjoyed my visit. the food exceeded my expectations, the self serve beverage selection was good, and once inside, it provided a relaxing escape from the busy terminal. my only real criticisms are the waitlist process and the lack of a designated waiting area for guests who have already checked in. being turned away is disappointing enough; not even being able to sit in the takeaway area and charge your devices while waiting felt unnecessarily restrictive. would i visit again? absolutely. next time, though, i'll arrive a little earlier, expect a possible wait, or maybe just apply for an amex.

First of all, the lounge is laid out well with different types of seating from bar stools to booths to cushioned seats. It's also kept clean of clutter. It looked spotless when I went around 8 a.m. on a Monday in July. Every table/place to sit comes with a QR code you scan to order made-to-order dishes. For breakfast, they had toasts, avocado toast, eggs, breakfast sandwiches and more. The sausage breakfast sandwich was hearty and comes with potatoes. At the bar are fruit cups, yogurt, and fresh fruit. They have an area for to-go boxes if you're in a rush. There are alcoholic drinks at the bar and several coffee machines that make lattes, etc. They also have orange and apple juice for breakfast. Many tables have magazines on them, outlets nearby, and strong wi-fi. Staff are friendly and attentive. One thing to note is that there are no restrooms inside, but there are nearby.

I ordered a coffee and l'assiette l'avantage numérique (3 eggs, sausage, bacon, smoked meat and potato). The eggs are beautifully cooked however the sausage... Maybe it's on the stove for too long... One of the side is crispy, well more hard then crispy. The bacon was nothing special and smoked meat is a bit dry. I do wish they'd give a little more potatos anyhow. One thing that I really didn't like... It's when I go pay the bill. I thought the coffee was included in the breakfast, most restaurant does right? And no, the waiter did not mention a thing about it. OK, fine charge an extra for the coffee but what outrage me the most, it's the price of the coffee. $3.99. For a tasteless, cheap, low quality coffee. Seriously how can they charge more than a Starbuck for that kind of coffee??? Would not recommend.
