Capital One Lounge at DEN

2025-Nov The food looks and tastes great! Impeccable service working conscientiously to clean after departing guests and servicing current guests. The front counter has many grab and go items for your airplane adventure. The soda fountain has pub style draw levers for cherry soda, root beer, filtered cold water, lemonade, vanilla cream soda, etc. The place has glass that looks down at the concourse level through frosted panels, comfortable seating, clean restrooms, a shower, etc. The elevator (for disabled access) appears disconcertingly like a service elevator in an employee only area but is still convenient, and some of the seating shows worn-through areas. This lounge was one of the best I’ve been in from any brand, but the worn seating, and the behind-the-scenes vibe of the accessibility elevator doesn’t let me give it the full five star treatment.

Great place for a long layover! Delicious food (we were there for breakfast and lunch). Comfy seating. Quiet atmosphere. Friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. Didn't use the showers, but love that they're available. We initially had to get on the waitinglist to get in, but ended up only waiting about 10 minutes.

One of my favorite airport lounges! Delicious food and drinks, great service, and very clean. They have additional services like shower and work rooms to book as well. The best part is that you can take food to go! Perfect if you have a shorter layover and don’t have too much time to sit and eat food in the lounge. I stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon and there was no wait, though the lounge was moderately full inside.

The Capital One Lounge at Denver Airport was a great experience. The lounge offers a comfortable place to relax while waiting for your flight, with a nice view of the planes outside. There’s a wide variety of complimentary food available for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with a full bar. Most drinks are free, including espresso drinks, coffee, sodas, and juices. Only top-shelf alcohol costs extra. Overall, it’s a clean, relaxing space and well worth visiting if you have access.

Upscale lounge with impeccable service Azaleah is such a great asset to your team! Other reviews mention long wait times to enter but I didn’t experience so on an early Friday morning. My first experience visiting the Denver Capitol One lounge was immaculate. I was warmly greeted and welcomed by Azaleah, who was so helpful. She showed me around and proactively let me know where I should go for my flight, which was so thoughtful. I loved the breakfast buffet items and having them in the small metal tins works great for reducing waste. The to-go area was so accommodating with pre packed sandwiches, salads, and banana bread. The restrooms were clean and spacious with good quality toilet paper. Please keep up the great work!! I was apprehensive when’s visiting as the Google reviews have mentioned multiple hour waits but didn’t find that so in my case. The single person bathrooms are nice but usually results in a queue for the bathroom.

Nice lounge, but overcrowded on a daily basis. Literally when joining the waitlist on Sunday late afternoon at landing before my connection the wait is 51 minutes. Prior visit 61 minutes when joining the queue via the app. For today’s visit, queuing 51 minutes is ridiculous. When I came in, it wasn’t even as crowded as the visit I had on Friday. Not sure what the hold up was. Food options, not as great as the one in DCA.

The experience at the Capital One Lounge in Denver Airport was mixed. While the lounge itself is still a more comfortable option than waiting at the gates, the service and amenities have definitely slipped compared to before. The wait time was the biggest issue — we were forced to stand in line for nearly an hour before being admitted, which felt unreasonable for a lounge experience. Once inside, the food selection was noticeably reduced, and many trays were left empty. Even simple things like drinks were disappointing — the lemonade machine was out of service, and the Coke machine was dispensing watery soda. On the plus side, the seating area is clean and provides a quiet escape from the busy airport. But overall, this visit did not live up to expectations. I would rate it 3 stars at most. Tip: Make sure to join the online waiting list while you’re on your way to the airport — it can save you from wasting time in line.

The Denver Capital One Lounge is stylish, comfortable, and offers great lounge food and drinks. It can get crowded during peak times, but if you get in, it’s a great spot to relax, work, or grab food before your flight. The showers are also a fantastic bonus and the staff is attentive.

I love the Capital One Lounge and can say Denver and DFW have been nothing but good experiences for me every time I've been As it's gotten more popular, it's gotten more busy. Hopefully next year when they stop allowing secondary cardholders in for free it gets a little better. But the waitlist moves fairly quickly and I appreciate their grab-and-go options for when we don't have enough time to sit down to catch our next flight.

I wish Capital One would open a lounge in SeaTac :( This was amazing. The food was so good. The staff was so friendly and efficient. The place was clean. The bathrooms were clean. There were offices you could ask to use to take private work meetings in if you needed them. My favorite dish was the tofu poke, which I didn't expect, but honestly everything was delicious and they catered to many allergens. And then, of course, they have the to-go bag for snacks and sandwiches and cups if you want to take some out the door with you! If you're in the area, I'd go check it out sooner than you're ready to go in-- they sometimes have a line to get into the lounge.

One of the best out there!!!! This lounge changed my life haha Amenities galore! So many fun brings to see, eat, or do around every corner All the food was pretty good! Plated very aesthetically and everything was fresh. I loved the variety of dishes along with the desserts. They even have La Colombe coffee! The bathrooms are individual stalls and very nice. There's showers, meeting rooms, and even family rooms. The to-go station is amazing and oh so helpful! I was able to take a bunch of goodies and to-go food on my flight and it made me so happy Don't skip this lounge!!!

3.5/5 I've been to this lounge once before, and we had a group flying out late from Denver so decided to get to the airport a bit early to take advantage of our lounge access. Overall, Capital One lounges are leagues above other Priority Pass lounges - and even in my experience, some AMEX lounges. They are new, updated, and have great elevated touches like huge bathrooms, tons of small dishes to try, fun drinks on tap, delicious specialty cocktails and mocktails, and a to-go section. We had a ~20 minute wait (though we were quoted an hour) because the airport was so busy on a Sunday night. Once we got in, we were led to a table for 4 - even though our group was for 6. We ended up relocating to a different spot with more space for us. FOOD The food options here were much more limited than I've seen at other Capital One lounges and in the past, and they were taking quite a while to restock. We waited nearly half an hour for two items that were most of interest - the other options were salads. I liked their chicken tinga with rice and tofu poke bowl! But overall, the options felt more limited that other Cap1 lounges I've been to. There are not gluten free options for pastries or desserts here. Their to-go options weren't the most exciting: a few sandwiches, a few salads, and a few chia pudding things. DRINKS Their mocktail that we had was the best thing we tasted! They had several custom cocktails too, and came around with a champagne cart which was cute. They had a soda draft machine which was fun! Some of the flavors were great, and others tasted quite flat. This wasn't my favorite visit to this lounge or a Cap1 lounge, but certainly better than other Priority Pass lounges!

Food and drinks are great. Somehow it is so crowded. Bathroom is not good, only 5 stalls for full capacity of 150-200 people? You wait in line every time.

Having been to many lounges across the North America and in Asia, the Capital One lounge ranks among the best that I've ever experienced. This was a pleasant surprise as most airport lounges such as the United, AA, Delta, Alaska, etc. offer very little quality food. I must've been quite lucky as it was a Friday and I had heard that many people sometimes have to wait hours to get into this lounge, and I did have to wait, it took about 25 to 30 minutes and I was only able to enjoy the lounge for about 20 minutes before my flight started boarding, but it was well worth the wait. There is a takeout section in case you don't have much time to sit in the lounge and even that section was quite impressive there is snacks, cookies, there was sandwiches to go. If you do have extra time, the buffet is also a delight, possibly more vegan options than I've ever seen in a lounge and being vegetarian. This was probably better than any option you could ever find outside. Seating is limited, and some seats are a little less comfortable than others. I could barely find a seat that had a back to it and unfortunately, none of the bathrooms were available even after waiting a while so I ended up not using the bathroom. The staff that I interacted with were extremely helpful very impressed with the Customer service. If you fly through Denver often it actually would be worth it to make sure that you can get into this lounge as it completely improves the experience of waiting for your flight. However, you're just wanna make sure you come way before your flight. Give yourself at least two hours before your flight as you may a long way before you can get in, especially during peak seasons.

Busy at 5a (opening; 30+ people in line with holds at the bottom of the escalator to accommodate check in delays) with a long line and kids moseying around all the stuff. I would love to see CapitalOne lounge prioritize flyers who have less than 30min til departure at 5am. I'm thinking a scanner at the bottom of yr escalator that jumps the line for VentureX cardholders who are going to be in and out to avoid the kids in the way and gobs of 8am passengers lounging about. While they may be crippling the lounge access on the CapitalOne VentureX (only cardholders in 2026, family members will be charged fees) CapitalOne VentureX is already losing customers. They could have prioritized entry to short turnaround visitors instead of taking away access completely from ones who have the time luxury to lounge.

The lounge is at gate A34 up the set of escalators. A staff member may be at the bottom if there is a wait, but they will text you when your spot is ready. Great way to wait for your flight. I had only a 15-20 minute wait (solo traveler, morning, weekday) and got to stay in the lounge for a bit over an hour and a half. I didn't use the shower facilities. The buffet was truly excellent. They were transitioning from breakfast to lunch so I managed to snag a croissant along with my lunch items. I highly recommend the curry cauliflower and the garbanzo bean daal, so flavorful I went back for seconds. I also had the Playground Legends drink at the bar and thoroughly enjoyed it. Bar service was fast and friendly. The grab and go section was great if you're in a rush, though it could use a non-nut salty snack. I LOVED the on-tap iced chai latte. I also grabbed a warm cookie and a water. The meal options looked good too, I appreciated the inclusion of more than one substantial vegetarian option.

I hate to complain but why are all the sandwiches on pumpernickel and full of spinach (ham and cheese with spinach is vile) - offering cheap dips like black bean hummus, and the chicken tinga served hot has a tsp of meat in it? I mean maybe half a tbsp seriously. Is the economy downturn hitting you capital one?

The nice thing about capital one lounges is that you can take a doggie bag to go. My gripe with all capital one lounges are that bathrooms are only a few and it's individual shared with men and women. It's chaotic when here's a long line and the layout is circular where you can line up from the left or right. I usually end up going to the centurion lounge just to use the bathroom because the bathroom experience is so frustrating. Little tapas style is good but it always feels clunky because you have a food tray and your table is full of little dishes. It does it make more sanitary bc most pots are closed... a suggestion is put up a picture so people don't lift every lid. I also love their cold coffee and lattes stations where you can get chai lattes and cold brew in addition to hot coffees and espressos. Honestly good food and experience other than the bathrooms.

Always a great and relaxing time in the lounge! Food is delicious and different from the usual and the drinks keep me happy on my flight. Staff is friendly and quick to clean tables.

Wow this is one of the best airport lounges. This was my first visit due to a layover and the service and quality of food is excellent. It's restaurant quality food. Came for dinner and ate things like curry cauliflower, pork belly, bolognese pasta. Soo many desserts like cookies, beignets, brownies. Loved the Togo section - they had sandwiches, salads, hummus, sodas and boxed waters. They have showers and relaxation pods available for reservation too. Only downside is the lounge closed at 9pm which I thought was kind of early.

I love the capitol one lounge at the Denver Airport. So glad there was one on my connecting flight. We added our name to the wait list and about 1.5 hour later we were in. Well worth the wait. Even at the lounge it was packed. As flights resumed seats at the lounge became available. The food options were amazing and the food was so good. You can grab and go food options or chill and eat there. There are rooms available, shower, or just chill while you wait for your flight. Pretty cool!

I stopped by during a quick layover and noticed a few new changes to the food selection since my last visit. This time, they had pork belly served over rice and cabbage, which was a great addition. Most of the other dishes were familiar or slight variations of past offerings-things like hummus, spinach salad, mac & cheese, and so on. My favorite item here is still the guava chia pudding-it's light, refreshing, and has just the right amount of sweetness. I also tried their cream sodas on tap for the first time and really enjoyed that sweet, tangy, carbonated kick. Service was great, as the employees were constantly picking up plates, and the staff checking us in were very friendly. Ambiance is good, if you get the right spot. It was pretty busy, so I generally try to avoid any tables in the middle.

Varieties of delicious foods & handcrafts beverages at the bar. Lovely mid century modern style atmosphere. Line can be a bit long at the bar & pretty busy to all seating area esp. by the windows. But, Jen our mixtologist and her team is so lovely & created many fabulous cocktails for us. I love unlimited entry with Venture X card. The key is book them on your capital one app. Before you arrive to the entrance area.

In LOVE with this lounge. I almost don't want to write a review because I want to keep it a secret. By far the best perk of having the venture x card if you live close to Denver. Great food and amenities that make the airport something to actually look forward to.

What's not to like about warm, quality food in a calm, exclusive environment? Capital One lounges are our islands of serenity and sustenance in an otherwise chaotic crush of commuters and travelers.

The Capital One Lounge located near Gate 34 in terminal A at the Denver International Airport is the BOMB! Most of my flights are out of gate B but I still make the trip over to terminal A and even come to the airport early to hang out here. With the Venture X card, unlimited visits are permitted with 2 guests. You can either show your physical card or there is a bit of a convoluted way to pull up a QR code in the app. The food and drinks are some of the best I've had at airport lounges and I've been to a lot at many countries. There is plenty of seating including a couple work stations and quiet rooms. Bathrooms are also super clean. To top things off, they have a take and go section for those that are in a hurry. Capital One really hit it out of the park here!

I love this lounge. It's definitely worth it whether you have a short or long layover. I love the salad and hot food and drinks that they offer as well as the to go sandwiches and parfait. It can be crowded and you may have to wait a few minutes to get in. In my experience, I didn't have to wait longer than 5 minutes. You need to have a Venture card and pay $45 per adult, $25 per kid, and or get in for free with a Venture X card. The seating is great. It comes with chargers underneath. I was a little upset with the first lady checking us in because she wanted my son to sit in a separate area instead of giving us a bigger table but customer service fixed the issue and was so kind to find us a big enough table.

DEN airport stresses me out... it's a huge airport with 4 terminals. This lounge is located in A34. If you frontier... know that they remodeled. And your gonna have to walk......... a lot!! Since I'm a Venture X card holder... I get a pass.. and one guest pass. Venture ones pay $45... others pay $65. The food the drinks are delicious and da bomb!! In Terminal A the dining options are dreadful. I got here early to enjoy my free perks. As much as C1 charge in fees ... this was my payback. The bathrooms, the relaxation rooms... got me distressed for my trip back home... This is so worth it. No screaming kids running loose. No foolishness here. Definitely taking advantage of this perk, when I travel.

Having access to this lounge makes owning the Capital One Venture card a no-brainer for me. I've traveled around the world and I've been to many lounges and this lounge is amazing. So much to eat and drink and enjoy while waiting on your next flight, it really elevates (no pun intended) the travel experience. Food was hot, fresh, and came with lots of variety. Everything was very tasty. The grab and go area saves you huge $$$ with an assortment of salads, wraps, and snacks to grab and take with you. The bar has an exclusive menu and the bartenders make some very fine drinks. Amenities include plenty of seating with a variety of styles, charging stations, showers, huge bathrooms, private office spaces, and a parents room. Staff are on-point and hard working. They work hard to make you feel rested and rejuvenated. Worth the visit while in Denver, might connect here more often to take advantage of this great place.

So glad to have time for a quick visit. The lounge is located upstairs near Gate A34. It's much bigger than the other two, with relaxation rooms and showers (a super welcome amenity between long international flights!). We loved that some of the dishes feature local chefs! There are a lot of staff buzzing around helping us. The grab-and-go at the front is great too... my only "complaint" is that they are out of Tea Pigs green tea, again! Please restock. Thank you!

Not quite as good as the one in DFW, but a great lounge nonetheless. Hot food, drinks, snacks, grab & go, showers... Best place to recharge before your flight. Had a few hours to kill here during a layover and was very comfortable the entire time. Just be aware that starting Feb 2026, complimentary access will be for Venture X holders only, meaning all guests/authorized users will need to pay an additional fee. Should help with the crowding issues.

This place reminds me of the DFW Capitol One Lounge before it started stripping down the food. I took one of my best friends to Denver on a birthday trip and she was in utter awe of the selection of food and the quality service we received. The shrimp ceviche was amazing. I also had an incredible Black History Month drink called Greenwood, which I assume is named for the neighborhood where Black Wall Street was in Tulsa. The amount of thought put into that was so cool. On the way out I was able to grab a Bubbly for the plane, a luxury no longer offered in Dallas. It was an incredible experience, and well worth a fee if I didn't already enjoy my Venture X card.

Good control of crowds as it is a lounge in demand. There is a wait list, so sure to plan ahead and utilize their online queue system. The ambience is relaxing, plenty of seating, and many spots to plug in. Their food is a good selection of unique healthy and decadent small plates that don't disappoint. Drinks are also delectable along with nonalcoholic options. Overall a great relaxing experience!

12 stars. I don't want to rave on and on about this lounge, but it was an excellent experience on both trips from beginning to end. The food was all very good. I finished each dish completely and that is rare for airport lounge food. I came for breakfast for one visit and lunch for the other. There is a full bar of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, there is also a drink menu if you are the type of person who has trouble making a decision. There is also made to order espresso drinks at the bar. At first I skipped the cookie bar area, but on my second visit I learned that was a huge mistake. The cookies are hella good. You would think that maybe they would mail it in on something like this, but the attention to quality at every level at this lounge was nothing short of impressive. They also have a togo area where they encourage you to take a sandwich or drink or treat to go. There are special meeting rooms, or relaxation rooms, or shower rooms that you can reserve if you like. There was lots of seating options and room and this is the first lounge I've been to recently that wasn't packed. I'm not going to list all the food and drinks that I tried b/c the list is too long. Plan your day accordingly and get to the lounge a few hours early, so you can relax and really experience what it has to offer. The front desk people are really friendly, the manager was really friendly and the bar tenders are fast. They will make sure to ask you for ID, so just be a good sport and have that ready to go, even if you look older than 21, it speeds up the process and helps them out.

They still require u to wait on the waitlist even though we just needed to do a grab and go behind their desk. Not efficient for those just wanted to grab food quickly.

Great, clean and open space with decent food options and friendly staff. As a vegetarian, I always appriciate when things are clearly labeled veg or vegan and allergens were also listed. I had a glass of wine and: - MAC & CHEESE COCOTTE (cavatappi pasta, smoked gouda cheddar & parmesan cheese sauce) - SESAME BRUSSEL SPROUTS (oven roasted brussel sprouts, sesame power blend, maple tahini dressing, sesame spice blend) - SPINACH & GOAT CHEESE SALAD (fresh spinach, goat cheese, beets, marcona almonds, quinoa, shallots, maple mustard vinnagrette)

I mean it's one of the better lounges I have been too. I almost wanted Denver to be my home airport so I could visit this lounge all the time. It was continuously cleaned and had plenty of seating. The food was delicious and there were so many vegetarian options. The dessert was oh so dreamy. I have no complaints.

We love the cap one lounge and always get to the airport early just to be sure we have time to eat and grab a drink here. My tip- check the capital one app for wait times and to get on their waiting list before you get there. We've found that the past two times we flew, the wait time was actually about half of what the app predicted. We try to get on the waitlist right when we get off the RTD train or when we get in line for security. The food has always been soo delicious and the service is excellent! Love that you can fill up a whole tray with whatever little dishes you want. We've been for both breakfast and lunch multiple times. It's so fun that they include "local" Colorado items and dishes and drinks too. And every time we go, there's something new but also our favorites, like the Mac & cheese! They keep everything really nice and clean, with multiple private bathrooms and some work & relaxation rooms that you can get on a waitlist for. The design of the lounge is great and it is comfortable. The staff are super nice and helpful and so welcoming! Oh and always plan an extra few minutes on your way out to get some grab and go items!

Really impressed with the Capital One Lounge at DIA. Super clean and modern, with tons of comfy seating and great views. The food was actually *good*--fresh, not just your standard airport lounge snacks--and the drinks were solid too. It's a great spot to relax before a flight, and way less hectic than the terminal. Definitely worth checking out if you have access.

Awesome perk of being a Capital One member. Price is a little steep for not members especially. But a good selection of food drinks and ways to kill time while you're waiting on a flight

Literally plan my entire day around making sure I can get to this lounge and maximize my stay for 3 hours. The food is really good considering it's all free. They mix up the menu's quarterly, so if you're ready for some items, just gotta be patient until the next season. The view of the main terminal and some planes coming in an out are nice. But the real clutch part is the amazing comfortable seats, from couches to a bar and everything inbetween. Also they have showers!!! Be sure to check in on the Capital One all before going through security because there usually a wait. Only way to enter is if you have the exclusive perk of having the capital one venture x card

I love coming to this lounge, but I live in Denver, so I am here before flights often. It can get busy during prime hours, so I would check ahead and reserve your spot on the app. Showers can also be reserved at the desk. My favorite foods are the churro waffle for breakfast and the cucumber and fake crab bites that they have for lunch or dinner. The mango indian chicken and macaroni and cheese are also decent.

I continue to be impressed with the offering at the Capital One Lounge. This mornings breakfast included chorizo empanadas and mini Belgian waffles with cinnamon sugar It's DIA so expect a wait - mine was 18 minutes. The checkin was quick and the staff is happy to provide an overview of amenities. The main room has the bar, food, drinks, and large windows with views of the tarmac. Another room is a bit quieter and has more seating. One impressive feature is the large individual restrooms. Each one is probably 100 square feet with a vanity and places to hang your coat or bag. If you have the Capital One Venture X card budget time to spend in this lounge - it's a great experience!

4.5* Near A34. Solid (not great) food & drinks. Great view. Hosts, table busers and restroom attendants were all friendly -- and had the hustle on. Have everything you could need & several dietary options even. Love the small plates. Clean, and tables cleaned rapidly. A great oasis in busy DIA. Tip: Until 12.31.24, regular Venture card gets you in (no guests) 2x per Yr. After this date, must have Venture-X to get in complimentary.

Wow, I am impressed. Food variety and quality exceeded my expectations. Caught the end of breakfast and beginning of lunch, so I was able to try both. Chorizo empanada and tofu scramble had great flavors. Really enjoyed the curried cauliflower during lunch. To top things off, they offer to-go items, including La Colombe on draft.

Nice lounge. Lots of healthy food opts. But we're glad it's diff from Dfw airports capitol lounge.

Used this lounge a couple times already. I have always had a great experience here. The food is always warm and fresh and the grab and go section is fully stocked. I love the selection of soft drinks and alcoholic drinks (all free) as well as the vast food selection. I always get the bacon mac and cheese, a quinoa salad and then anything else that's new that day (they change their menu once in a while). I always enjoy a non alcoholic beverage bc they craft it in a way where they use diff non alcoholic ingredients and it tastes amazing! Service is always great- there is always someone making rounds cleaning and or collecting finished dishes from customers. It's a very calm ambiance and a great place to just sit down and relax before your flight.

One of my favorite lounges I've been to stateside. The lounge was spacious, the decor was modern yet relaxing, and there were plenty of seating. The food was delicious and when we went, it was Asian Fusion. The staff were also very friendly and there were plenty of staff to keep the lounge clean.

Can put yourself on the waitlist ahead of time if it is busy! Simply go into your Capitol one app, click the benefits tap, then click discover lounges and then join the waitlist for the lounge before arriving! Location: It's right above A 32 Staff is amazing! Especially a busser named Sheily (I think was her name). All of the staff were very kind!

First time checking out a capitol one lounge and was not disappointed. Walking in your greeted with a hostess. Checking in, we had a 15 min wait--but it felt quick. Even with the wait, the lounge still felt pretty full. Enough to where it was a bit hard to find some seats for two. The buffet was a little small, but they had a good amount of to go items that you can grab before you leave. They had a soda machine that had interesting flavors. Their bathrooms were super clean, but not many. There is a bathroom attendant near by to refill their items. Cool lounge. Definitely would visit again.

Honestly this place was even bigger than the DFW lounge! They also have Capitol One Denver Lounge only drinks which I highly recommend! Service is always great, just make sure to keep in mind that there is a waitlist when you check in!

Definitely a great perk of having a Venture X card. Know some of the guesses benefits are changing next year which should probably help with the busy-ness of the lounge. I'm using the Capital One app to join the waitlist is easy though and even when it said "at capacity" only waited 15 mins or so to get it. The lounge itself if pretty spacious with a full bar, variety of sitting areas, work spaces, relaxation lounge, showers, and single bathrooms. Everything was well maintained and it was comfortable to sit in and wait for our flight. We were impressed with the food options as well. Caprese salads, poke salad, pasta, pork belly, cauliflower curry, and whole pastry shelf of cookies, beignets, croissants, etc. we enjoyed our meal and pretty much all the options. Also if just need to grab and go there are some prepackaged salads, yogurts, sandwiches to grab too which is really nice. Only constructive feedback would be the buffet was a bit sparse when we arrived, but more items did appear with 15 mins or so. With the place being so busy that makes sense, but felt like that could have been maintained a bit more . Overall a good lounge experience though! As the lounge was

Traveling with my mom and our cat - manager was rude about us having the cat even though it's allowed per their policy. Additionally, we reserved a relaxation room so the cat could just be in the quiet for a bit and they wouldn't let the two of us in. After we had done so they then told us it was one person allowed only. They were not at all sympathetic to our situation and how difficult it is to manage luggage, a pet, and trying to grab some food during our layover. The manager also treated me like a child (I'm a grown adult) and that they were even doing us a favor by letting us in the lounge.

Fantastic lounge but wait times are way too long. Something needs to be done. Over 1hr wait. What is the point to having this perk?

I am Denver-based and therefore have been able to visit this Capital One lounge on many occasions. Here are my takeaways: The Pros: -Excellent cocktails -Buffet-style food in individually-portioned tiny pots -Comfortable and stylish design of the lounge itself -Grab and go food, drinks, and desserts if you are in a hurry -Attentive and hardworking staff -The A concourse lounge location is convenient if you are going through Denver security (AKA if you are not in DEN on a layover). After going through security, you must pass the A concourse to get to any gate, so the lounge is not out of the way. The Cons: -There is almost always a wait. It's shorter if you are entering solo. -There is often a line for the bathrooms and the design makes it difficult to tell if all bathrooms are taken or not. -The food gets repetitive if you are a frequent visitor. -The lounge can get pretty crowded since, in my experience, it is often at capacity.

We originally booked the first flight home from Denver at DIA but were super excited to rebook to a later flight so we could enjoy the Capital One Lounge. My husband got a Capital One card last year, so this was my first experience in any Capital One Lounge, and it was amazing. The food selections were excellent and abundant- you can certainly get enough for a meal. Lots of vegetarian selections were available, but meat eaters can get their fill too. I tried every dessert and they were all amazing- the baklava, brownies, and a pudding from the grab-and-go area. I was pleasantly surprised to find a specialty cocktail menu. The werewolf in London was similar to a whiskey sour, but the pride month drink stole the show with the glitter inside. Watching the bartender make the pride drink was fun as well. The lounge's internet is fast, plenty of electrical outlets are available, and everything is clean- including the bathrooms. If you need to work, you can even book offices or small meeting rooms here.

The food and the drinks seemed pretty good but I waited 40 minutes to be let in and then 10 minutes waiting for a bartender to give me a drink and there was literally nobody in there. Not the greatest experience with the service, but the vibe is really good and the food is pretty good. I have to think with the right management, this lounge would be amazing.
