I will be using my DL AMEX card to pay for SC entry; $29. If by chance I don't like the food offerings, can I exit the club and purchase something in the terminal and reentry? Or, does my admission restrict me from leaving until the flight? I changed flights and have a longer layover.

Of course, I've snacked on a Biscoff saved from an earlier Delta flight with my coffee in the SC (which is technically the same), but again YMMV.

Breakfast is weak. You basically have hard boiled eggs, bagels/toast and oatmeal. At least a couple times I've seen grits in ORD and ATL. But some rotation of different eggs. Bacon. Something. Basically have no real option for a protein. If hotels can do bacon & eggs feel like the SkyClub could.

I think the best breakfast I have, are in the AF lounge in Paris (terminal "M").
I like the idea to serve soup in the SC, this is very simple, and fit with many peoples. If they can add cracker this will be better...

Just passed through Minnehopeless yesterday and they actually have decent food now
Best is still Seattle... Used to love Narita but Seattle is THE BEST right now, hands down. SFO is sad sad sad when it comes to food - your el cheapo free breakfast at La Quinta Inn is better.

Glad Seattle still has the best
And interesting SFO is sad... They are touted on Delta's website as having gourmet and expanded offerings. However I'm not sure if I would trust Delta SkyClub pho.......

The Admiral's Access going away with the Citi Prestige, seemed bad at first, but given the state of AA clubs, didn't seem too bad after all.

Seattle rotate through local food items, like chowder, mac n cheese, chips, etc. They do a really good job at bringing in local favorites. They also have 3 or 4 salad options using the latest buzz-word ingredients.
SFO has a nice lounge facility-wise, the food is crappy. The fruit comes out of a can, in syrup... Boil egg has a playdoh texture and the Starbucks espresso machine seems to always break down in the morning. Instead of getting small size bake goods, someone actually cuts them into smaller size -- looks like they buy from Costco or something... I had better food at cheap hotel breakfasts.

Sounds like SFO's much weaker at breakfast than later in the day. But I feel like that's generally true of the Big 3, both for lounges and in the air. Besides the pho, last time I was at SFO the salad options were extensive and there was some sort of rice dish and paella.
MSP F/G has had mac & cheese since the renovation, probably some other dishes. But still not as good as SFO or SEA.
