Though I usually fly Delta, I had the rare opportunity to fly United for my Chicago trip, and their club lounge was better than expected! Staff are so incredibly friendly and really set the tone. The area is very spacious and open with lots of glass window walls. I love the whiteness & brightness of the interior because of it~~ inside, there's a ton of workspace too, including cubicles where I saw people working rly hard on their computers.
Buuuuut~I'm really only here for the food so~ skipping to the good part ;) Because it was breakfast time, there weren't too many options, but I was pretty content as is! I was quite impressed with their various protein options: 3 types of eggs (boiled, scrambled, egg salad); different yogurts (my fav greek included); and savory proteins (sausage, beans) from the burrito bar. Their homemade salsa & guac were surprisingly yummy. Cut fruits & oatmeal were some healthy options too.. whole fruits also available for grabbing on the go!
But actually... an hour later, brunch time came around and the menu changed! *gasp* the breakfast bar transformed into a brunch/lunch bar-including a salad bar, charcuterie, a vegan ramen bar (miso based, with tofu), beef barley soup, veggie red pepper hummus wrap, and chicken pesto sandwich. Really appreciated the fact that they had many vegan options on the menu. No, I'm not vegan, but I love seeing inclusive menu options! I don't think this is always the case where the entire menu changes the next hour LOL i think I just got super lucky! Now I wonder what the dinner menu would have been like if I'd stayed a bit longer... but I had a flight to catch so.. bummer haha
If you also want to "get lucky" then I recommend coming from 10:00 -11:30am lol~~ ;) With awesome timing, I unexpectedly got to enjoy an array of food experiences, so (easily) a five stars from me!~ If you're flying United from LAX, do pay a visit! :)
