    These United Clubs need to offer more than just wifi, cheese and crackers. They could learn something from Virgin Atlantic's clubs (see image).

    This is a pretty fancy United Club. It has super comfy chairs near the front. They have electrical outlets in them too!

    great place to hang out waiting for planes, worth the membership price if you fly as much as I do and eat their snacks but they need to change them up. Tired of carrots and cheese

    Ignore all tips before 2018. They are from the period before the club was renovated, reduced in size, and all hard liquor was removed from the offerings.

    Be sure to have a couple pre-flight beverages just in case your plane hits a truck on the tarmac. Trust me, you'll be pleased you did.

    Always mediocre snacks. But the drinks keeps flowing, the bartenders are always nice, and the view can be great depending on the time of the day. No need for wifi card anymore, just connect and go.

    Look for seats that have larger tables with power outlets right away. Beer is free (Goose Island is recommended), wine and spirits cost extra.

    Looking for outlets? Once you walk in, go straight back towards the bar.....pick up free beer, then continue forward to the far wall. Outlets always open on this half of the club.....happy hunting!

    Breakfast: croissants, pound cake, yogurt parfait bar, oatmeal bar, and cereal. Illy coffee, tea, orange juice, and water for beverages.

    Military can get in here regardless of your ticket or actual membership. Just show your ID at the desk and they'll let you in. Also, get a free wifi card while here or you have to pay for Internet

    United has A LOT to learn from other Star Alliance Members (e.g. Lufthansa, Singapore and even TAP) that have much better accommodations and service that make you really feel welcome. Unlike here!

    Craft beer (goose island) is not complimentary. And I can't buy it now because the credit card machine is down (no cash payment?).

    #unitedclubdowngrade UA just recently downgraded complimentary drinks. If you are looking for a drink, you might want to stay away from United Clubs! :( Flyertalk Disc: http://goo.gl/quelcZ

    The bottles on the middle shelf are almost always free. Bud light is usually the free beer. House reds and whites are also complimentary.

    The complimentary "local favorite" beer is Goose Island Honker's Ale, just like at the United Club in T2.

    If you want quiet, the business lounge in the back with the cubicles is quite nice. Quiet zone by the entrance often not quiet.

    Looking for outlets? There's always open desks (each has 2 plugs) in the business area.

    Drinks are free, wifi is free and hospitality is free. The United Club at the B terminal is better.

    Beer and wine are the only alcoholic beverages served here. You cannot order any vodka, gin, scotch, tequila, or other hard alcohol, unlike virtually all other United Clubs. This is unacceptable.

    Lounge is not impressive. However the opportunity to take a shower after 30 hours of travel is very much appreciated. Service is also very attentive.

    Much better since the merger with Continental. At least some drinks are free! Free wi-fi. Finally!!

    Free drinks (well). But snacks not so good. You can not bring in outside good? Why? They don't sell any?

    Free cocktails, beer, wine. Most members get a guest or two in free. Make a friend at the door to get in.

    The United clubs have open wi-fi now so no more need for passwords for members or guests

    United has a lot to improve. I've used Singapore, Thai and Lufthansa lounges. United definitely has the worst lounge out of all. Charging outlets are hard to find, mugs are dirty and less food choices

    United Club no longer scans your boarding pass to verify your club membership. Bring your membership card with you.

    I completely agree with Halle. These jokers working the door had no idea that Star Alliance Gold members were allowed in. I had to show them the rule on their website.
