Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Chips and Patron Gimlet
Anton F.

The District is part of the Oakland Airport approach of rebranding, upgrading and improved innovation. Under renovation for several months in Terminal 2, between Gates 24 and 25, this restaurant has a lively vibe with music, flatscreens, full bar and food menu that includes sandwiches, salads and shareable. The staff were great, very helpful. I enjoyed the food, cocktail, service and ambience.

OAK stepped up with a fantastic airport restaurant and lounge. Excellent service and decent food makes this store is a reliable experience.

I was at the airport super early in the morning and craving breakfast before my flight. I walked to the district which was right next to my gate which made it very convenient so I would know that I would not miss my flight. We sat down immediately, and our server was very friendly and handed us menus. We asked him what was good on the menu. He responded that everything that he ate quite frankly was delicious at the district. That sounded hopeful. I have to eat clean when I travel otherwise my stomach gets queasy for the entire time that I'm in a different time zone so I had the Greek yogurt with everything on the side and it was so delicious. Everything was so fresh and the yogurt was nice and thick the way I love it. My coworkers breakfast was exactly what he likes with a lot of protein. You're very happy with the service and how clean the restaurant was the next time. I'm at the Oakland airport for breakfast, this will be my go to restaurant.

Perfectly good airport food. Had a decent chicken Caesar and watched Japan score an equalizer.

You get what you pay for. Its small air port and short walk to gate 8, you are there. There are plenty of signs pointing to the airport lounge. Very unprofessional receptionist aka manager aka DIY person scanned our pass, boarding pass and we were in. I didn't expect much but one of the employee said welcome. Place was small but kept well. Had a full bar at the end. Food option was limited but was better than other areas. Thank you for being there!

I learned of Oakland airport having a Priority Pass lounge, and this was it. The lady that was at…read morethe front on Tuesday afternoon is easily the least friendly staff member I've ever encountered on any Priority Pass lounge visit. This Escape Lounge is definitely one to enter and... escape after grabbing a bite / drink. Like with any lounge, there is Wi-Fi, a snack area, and a bar. Most of the foods here are carb forward and on the saltier end. There are a couple of good items on the DIY charcuterie for snacking with wine. They are very vegetarian friendly, as the only meat options at the hot bar were pork. The pasta salad and salads in general were good. For alcohol, I had a Pinot and Prosecco, and both were dry. I'm not too sure of the brand, but it wasn't remarkable. Finally, this lounge is TINY, and there is no built-in restroom or showers. There is a restroom directly across the hall, but the front desk staff member was very intimidating and unwelcoming to talk to that I was too afraid to ask. Thankfully, she eventually took a short snack break, and one of the nice bar staff subbed in. I eventually worked up the courage to ask if I may use the restroom.

I stopped at The Cub lounge at the SJC, near Gate A8 around 1:30pm on a Friday. I was on my way to…read moreSouthern CA and at that time of day, the lounge was not very busy. The lounge is easy to find and check in was a breeze. The space is large - you walk into a seating area and to the right is the bar and food. There are multiple areas to sit and even a quiet area set back from the rest. We found a seat and I ordered a sparkling Rose. Each table has a bar code that you an scan and order your drinks, they have a large menu to select from but you can only order one drink at a time. The drink arrived promplty and after settling in, we went to check out the food. The menu is not extensive, they had a salad bar, chips and dip, bar snacks, a soup and some fried rice. Not extensive but that is a relief sometimes because too many choices can be overwhelming. The onion dip was fabulous as were the bar snacks. The soup was nice and warm and mixing in some of the rice made for a very filling meal. They also have flavored water and fruit, packed and ready to go. The wine are mostly from CA but they had a couple of French wines, I also tried a chardonnay that hit the spot! There was one woman who sat right in the center of the seating area and proceeded to gossip and complain about work and her co-workers as loudly as if she was in her living room. It was long conversation and even though she was loud enough to be heard outside, no one came by to tell her to take it somewhere else. I took one star off for that - the employees should ensure that it is a welcoming place for all travelers not just the self centered ones. The best part of the visit was the dessert, they had a fluffy layered cake, covered with mousse, jam and topped with whipped cream - so good! This lounge also seems less crowded than the The Club in another part of SJC. You can buys a day pass or you can visit this place with Priority Pass. Overall a great experience and I would go back again.

This lounge is easily accessible on the right after you go through security. It is very close to…read morethe lower D gates. This is a "temporary location" and supposedly a new and fancy lounge will be christened in 2027. This current iteration of the lounge is open: 5am-11pm. I was granted access without difficulty about three hours before my flight. Typical breakfast options were being served including assorted fruit, oatmeal, grits, & lots of breakfast pastries. The hot food consisted of egg white frittatas, biscuits & gravy, chicken apple sausage, mini pancakes, bacon & vegan sausage. Items were being replenished quickly and there were a number of employees clearing plates & assisting patrons. At 11am, the staff announced last call for breakfast, & they indicated that they would be setting up for lunch. The bar is fully stocked & the coffee machines are humming. I had a 2% latte that was pleasant. On the other side of the lounge is a fully stocked tea & drip coffee station. There is also a water / water bottle refill station that is not exactly intuitive. You have to hold down the little button at the base of the faucet. Anyhoo... The space itself is nothing special or spectacular, and it was quite busy the whole time I sat here. It was more pleasant than sitting at the gate though, that is for sure! The bathrooms are adequate. L'Occitane Verveine soap is stocked, but there is no lotion. (When I went back into the bathroom before I left the lounge, the lotion had been restocked.) Shower facilities are available upon request. Overall, this is an adequate lounge that dues the job, but it is not a showstopper or particularly memorable - nor does it really scream "Centurion", premium, luxury, or anything similar to that. Peace.

Breakfast options were the following: Biscuits & gravy- just okay. This was a little dense and heavy for my liking. Bacon- always a solid choice and perfectly cooked Sausage- tasted fine. Herbed potatoes- I enjoyed this and the veggies Egg white omelettes- Did not try this but looked fine. Pancakes- Did not try any but looked fine. Green smoothie- I enjoyed these. Oatmeal- This was fine and texture was perfect. Yogurt- Did not try this Various fruit- Pineapple, honeydew, cantaloupe, blueberries. Fresh and pineapple and melons were sweet. Pastry items: croissants, danish, cinnamon roll- just okay Staff were attentive and area was clean. I am not a breakfast person, but needed something since I was flying to the east coast.

The check in is quick and the staff was very helpful in giving us a rundown of the lay out of the lounge. Food was great. They had a salad bar and also some hot options. There were 2 options of soup, pulled pork, black forbidden rice, and veggies. Flavor wise, everything was delicious. There's also a pancake machine available the whole day and desserts. There is a separate bar area offering some complimentary drinks and also the option for upgraded "premium" spirits. As well as a coffee bar area with a barista available to make lattes, cappuccinos and more. There is a lot of seating area, and it's spaced out so you're not crowded in one area. Great space for lounging!

Alaska Airlines Lounge -- SFO Terminal 1…read more Red-eye out of Honolulu. Three hours to kill before the next flight. Walking off a plane at that hour, you are not looking for much, just somewhere quiet to land. The Alaska Lounge was right across from our gate. First time in, and the staff made it feel like they were glad we showed up. Friendly, genuine, no airport-zombie energy. The space is impressive. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the tarmac and the hillside, plenty of natural light, and seating for every mood: work tables, soft chairs, window loungers, even a private booth if you need to take a call. I planted myself at a window seat and didn't move. The bar is well-stocked. What stood out was having an actual barista on-site. Oat milk latte and a bowl of steel cut oatmeal, exactly what I needed at that hour. One honest note: the food selection was thin and several items needed restocking when we came through. The staff were apologetic and moved quickly, which matters. But the variety just wasn't there. Solid lounge. Good people. Great space. The food program has room to grow into what the rest of the experience already delivers.

For my first lounge experience, I have to say it was pretty nice. They had a lot of space, but it…read morewas very busy, so it was hard to find a seat. When I walked up to the buffet-style breakfast, there were no plates--only bowls. That made it a lot harder to grab what I actually wanted. I eventually found a seat and tried to eat, but it was so crowded that there weren't any seats with tables available. I ended up finding another spot with a ledge, so that worked. The eggs were good, but there was no cream cheese for the bagels. After toasting one and realizing there wasn't any cream cheese, I had to eat it dry. I'd suggest adding that to the spread--no pun intended. I tried the strawberry-infused water, and it wasn't very good, but the orange juice was pretty good. They also had a robot moving around, though I'm not sure what its purpose was. There were people collecting trash and plates, which helped keep everything clean. Overall, I think I would go back if I had the chance.

Small, crowded, limited seating and food options. This club offers the usual fare: bagels, cold…read moresandwiches, salad, cookies, soup and a hot protein dish. Service is nothing to write home about either, any request outside of what's given to you will be treated like a major inconvenience to the staff and they're doing you the favor (consistent with the service I get in Polaris)
