Mark DregerNovember 23, 2017The larger of the two domestic United Clubs, there is usually plenty of space to grab a seat (preferably by the window). Lots of good snacks, coffee, and a make-your-own soda machine.Upvoted Feb 8
John McTigueApril 11, 2013Man, these folks are picky. This is a great club. One of the nicest I've seen. Lots of semi private work spaces at the back. Great drinks. Snacks are fine too.Upvoted Feb 3- If you are looking for a meal - try the food court. It is great for a quiet, clean and well appointed waiting area. Bathrooms are a huge improvement over regular public ones. Welcome.
Steve CortezAugust 28, 2013The mysterious brown things in the dispenser are chocolate covered raisins. Try the free Financial Times, but beware the crossword.- Carlos AraujoOctober 9, 2019Good decoration, plenty of room for passengers, friendly staff, clean restrooms.
Walk all the way to back instead of finding a place to relax in the front areas as the back area is much quieter.
Sam SharmaMay 1, 2014One if the better lounges in the US. Still a far cry from lounges overseas: http://boardingarea.com/unroadwarrior/2014/02/02/lounge-review-united-lounge-tokyo-narita-airport/
Fredrik SkogstamMarch 1, 2017They do not offer free alcohol. Good printing possibilities. Quiet. Some snacks and sodas for free.
Marc SOctober 17, 2014House wine free and drinkable. Premium wines much higher quality but not free. If you have a united branded credit card, there is often a discount.
Theodore KimDecember 8, 2012One of the most spacious United Clubs out there. Take advantage to find a nook all by yourself!
To counter other tips, I've had great service whenever I've been here. My trick: sit at the bar.
Food options are in sync with all other United Clubs, physical space is beautiful & all beer is free. The nicest domestic United Club I've seen.
LiaJune 21, 2011Now offering free wifi and alcoholic beverages (more than just Bud on tap when I was there). Food options are definitely limited. Space is better than I expected from reading other reviewers tips.
Bill FickasNovember 25, 2013Forgot how nice this club is. Never regretted spending the money once I'm inside, if I end up with an hour or more to kill. You get two free passes if you sign up with the Mileage Plus Visa.- Bob EaglesonJune 18, 2020Although amenities were scarce (four packaged items), Club was clean and very comfortable.
I feel it's a flagship Club. Very well themed. Not as fancy as the newer ones but a classic.
Ryan UnderwoodSeptember 11, 2011You'll need to supply your own positivity & happiness as it doesn't radiate from what few UAL personnel there is available. Perhaps there's an upgrade charge for cheerfulness like there is for bags?
Sit with your back to the bar and look out the huge windows at the aircraft moving around the field! Even better with the Live ATC app running! https://market.android.com/details?id=net.liveatc.liveat
Remi PhilippeSeptember 5, 2016Place is nice but it's often packed... If you want to find 2 spots one next to the other, good luck! Food options are very limited (that's true outside of the lounge too).
Louie 李景雲 LeeFebruary 27, 2013Pre-check is at the security at the far left towards the international gates, but they close at 6 PM.
Scuba Dive AdvisorMarch 15, 2012Great way to enjoy a layover. For non-members, the $50 price tag is a little steep unless you are there for at least a few hours.
M. R.September 24, 2012Free booze (of lower quality) and limited food. However, the ladies at the lounge are experts at helping you with flight delays and the like.
David McClellandMarch 5, 2016Bland: from food and drink to furniture and facilities, this lounge has all the ambience of a poorly-funded library. Saving grace? Plentiful power at each seat for a pre-flight charge. Eat elsewhere.
It's on the right side, behind sliding glass doors, as you step off the Travel-ator after passing thru the TSA Check Point. For Premiers... it a long walk from the 80's gates to the Travel-ator.
Awkwardly listen to iBankers try to live out an "Up In The Air" fantasy by picking up traveling business women with "we should get lunch next time you're in town", then handing business card.
Robert RoweJune 2, 2010...call 1-866-825-3016 to reserve conference room! They have 3 conference rooms with seating for 4, 6 and 10. Read more
Brittany SübersNovember 15, 2016I don't understand why grown adults are not using the tongues... I had the roasted red pepper and gouda soup.
Use the Club in the International Terminal for early morning flights, the line is much smaller
They have now added Prosecco to the complementary wine.
Very nice place, with complimentary snacks and drinks. Also a bar.
Michelle ZhouMay 6, 2011Like others said already, not much to eat unless you a big fan of cereal, banana, and plain bread!
Mingfei YanSeptember 10, 2014Can't compare with other star alliance airlines' lounge at all- like Singapore airline or Asiana airline.
You have to go to Harmony right next door some really great stuff great for last minute gifts or even necessities for a flight
Rich T.October 12, 2011Boudin...The Mecca of SF Sourdough! Buy two of anything because you're sure to polish one off on the plane ride home.
Bring back the mint tea and hot chocolate, don't think we don't notice you cutting back as you raise the price!
The chairs all have an impressive collection of mystery stains on them. Ick.
Incredibly clean showers, no wait. Little bag of toiletries in case you lost yours. Towel warmer, hot water, plenty of space, hair driyer.
Vanessa WFebruary 18, 2013Thumbs-up to Milano cookies! Standard, I know, but this classic cookie doesn't go out of style :)
Jacqueline L.December 29, 2012Stuff your pockets and carry-on with food. They're not giving you anything from the bar, after all.
In the United Club a glass of Veuve is only $12. That's the best deal going!
Boon YapMay 30, 2012Seriously NOT world class lounge. Coffee & free wifi - that's it. Get your drinks onboard the plane. :-)
StephanieMay 20, 2013Absolutely freezing and no accommodation possible. Bring a jacket. Food is pretty good and people are nice.- Free alcoholic drinks except for the premium top shelf stuff.
Colin CharlesJuly 13, 2012Biscuits. Cheese. Apples. Bananas. That's about all your food options. Drinks (alcohol) cost money. Wifi is free but power sockets sparse. Crowded lounge. Unimpressed.
