    Early in the morning it’s not too crowded and the light is amazing! And if you need an early celebratory glass of bubbles, they hide the champagne but you can still get some if you ask.

    North lounge is a lot easier to get to, but because of this it is usually busier - especially for early business flights. For breakfast the bacon rolls are very good.

    You step off the plane after 11 hours cramped into a small seat. Thankfully, you've flown enough hours in small seats that you've earned the privilege of a bowl of soup, a snack, WiFi, and seating.

    The “secret” area beyond the glass - right hand side - where there are usb and UK plug power points; otherwise scarcely one in the lounge.

    It miss more variety in the food menu. Free wifi, plenty of comfortable places and many many many drinks from all kinds. It lacks any kind of entertainment also.

    Definitely a lack of wall plugs but it's the more relaxed and calmer lounge of the two. Also great views for plane spotting.

    Huge and crowded most of the times. Good selection of hot food and wines. Not all seats are comfortable for long staying.

    Bacon Roll Challenge - New rule. If you see someone from this list that has given out the wifi password in the lounge you can throw a roll at them. Each hit counts to the challenge ;)

    A lot more crowded that the BA South Lounge Galleries but a nice change and the runway view is fantastic. Be prepared to jostle for a seat though.

    Head straight for the sofa area at the back and don't even bother with the area near the food - very busy - grab the wireless password from the counter as you pass

    Compared to American lounges, this feels like an IKEA food court. Can’t complain about free but I was surprised this lounge was half the quality of the BA lounge at IAD.

    Sometimes quite busy but not bad. Good selection of drinks and warm food throughout the day. Don’t miss the 🥓 roll

    Got here around 11am on a Tuesday. It was like a cross between a homeless shelter and a sauna. People sleeping everywhere and it's about 90°c. Also, power sockets didn't work and tables were dirty 👎

    Great food options in the morning - croissants, pain au chocolate, rolls, bacon, fruit, yogurt, porridge, and cereal. Wifi is too slow and not enough power ports.

    If relaxation is required stay away from the sofas near the toilets. People moving chairs back & forth by dragging them along the floor was just infuriating. Softer floor coverings are needed.

    Looks like the powers that be have heeded to popular opinion and changed the menu around after a long time. The fruit salad is now served on the centre servery, not by the wall. Transformational!

    Sit outside in the atrium area... The atmosphere and seating is more comfortable and accomodating for transatlantic passengers to rest & relax. (Wifi password for Feb is "executiveclub".)

    Undoubtedly the best lounge I ever have visited. This is the BA flagship of lounges.

    Show your boarding card in the North Lounge for the showers. Perfect after a long haul flight whilst waiting for your next connection!

    Excellent views of the northern runaway 09L - if you're a fellow plane geek. 🤓✈️

    Good selection of food and drink, no desserts or sweet items. Very large area which became rather noisy after a while.

    Great wifi connection. Good seating area with some seats in a more quite zone. Food is okay. But I rather spend my hours here than in the airport terminal waiting for my flight.

    Nice couch but f***ing kids. Feels like being in a kinder garden rather than a business lounge. Without mentioning the usual London crowd dressed in black.

    Nice lounge but always too crowded when I visit. South lounge may be quieter, but at least the North lounge has more daylight

    Why does everyone need the password, just ask or look at the flight info screen IN the lounge. Makes me think its people hanging around outside hoping to log on.

    Ba have changed the food, and have ruined it... No bacon Sarnie for breakfast.. Toast and croissants... Is that the best they can do?

    If you have a connecting flight, stop in here to take a shower. You will feel refreshed and ready for your next leg of your journey.

    Showers Suites are so convenient and what a great way to feel refreshed after an overnight flight. If only you could book a bed to take a nap while waiting for connections

    Bacon rolls on top form; bigger less crunchy granary roll with plenty of crispy bacon; yum!

    Sky Sports channels are available on the tellies around the lounge. You have to change them manually, though.
