Sorry for the 2-star review. I almost went someplace else to wait for my flight. Fortunately, it was complimentary for me as a Star Alliance Gold member. However, for those paying with a Priority Pass, I wouldn’t recommend it. Limited seating and food options, with a weird atmosphere.
Impressive spread of food (both hot and cold) with authentic Indian options. Great selection of drinks and spirits. 1 big room with standard tables and chairs. No couches or sofas.
The food here was really quite delicious. I easily had a full meal full of variety that I’m sure was much better than many other options in the airport. Drinks and food are both self service as well, and there’s a fridge stocked with beers and mixers, as well as a shelf with spirits
The guy at the lounge reception was not friendly, not helpful to the brink of being rude. Lounge itself is rather so it felt crowdedfrom the few peoplein there, stained and worn off carpet, seating as in a cheap diner, only straight sitting at table as no comfy chairs. Food was quite okay but only choice for main was Indian food and tiny tasteless quiches. I cannot understand Singapore Airlines, who are rightly proud in their great service offer such "lounge" to their business class customers.
In general lounges in JFK are some of the worst in the world. This lounge is very small and when at full capacity it can get pretty loud. The food choices are limited but everything they have pretty tasty. There’s a little of everything so, even picky eaters will be happy. There’s WiFi, coffee, tea and Corona is only choice of beer. All in all, not great, but beats sitting at your gate.
