There are currently three Concorde Rooms on the network, two at LHR (T4/T5) and one at JFK. They are only open to people in ticketed First on BA or QF, people who are BA Premiers, Qantas Chairman’s Lounge members or the lucky holders of special ‘Concorde Room’ cards (which cannot be earned and were issued after Concorde’s retirement to its best customers and are issued now to the most frequent Club Europe customers). Guests are only permitted to BA Premiers, and Qantas Chairman’s Lounge and anyone travelling in BA First can also bring an extra guest (regardless of the status/travel class of either person) who is travelling with them.
Perhaps QF F passengers are given access in London, but I have twice been told in NY that QF (paid) F only gets me access to the F lounge and not the Concorde Room. Perhaps I happened upon an uninformed and unhappy lounge dragon both times. I never understood why there is a great lounge right next to the "premium" security line but QF would rather that its best customers walk through the terminal to the rather small, uninviting and overcrowded BA F lounge.
