Not at all assuming you were entitled to be there in the first place. I've seen people order or bring boxes of pizza in and didn't think anything odd about it. During a snowstorm last January that shut down KC, we worked (quietly) and ordered room service lunch to the lounge. Given the generally poor and limited quantity of CL offerings over the last few years, I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often
As long as you are reasonably quiet and respectful to the lounge and its occupants, I think almost anything goes. But I'm also one who takes my cell into the hallway for calls...
