If they really want to leave T1 and walk a bit I would suggest walking into the squaire center (Long distance train station) where there are some restaurants like a inhouse bavarian beer garden. Or go to one of the lobbies of the Sheraton and Hilton Hotels, relaxed places to stay for 2 hours with a coffee or tea or a snack.
Got it mate, cheers. Will let them know, we haven't booked our flights yet and there's a good chance that they may fly with me on Etihad (in which case we'll use the lounges in JFK and AUH).
