Used the Iberia Madrid T4 Satellite lounge earlier this week (forgot to snap some pics
).
The lounge is massive. I couldnt see how it could fill up enough such that you wouldnt get some kind of seat.
Large food areas with snacks at both ends, and a wine bar at one of those ends. Showers, large bathrooms, kids area, dining area, plenty of seating types with and without views. Also lockers for your bags with a digital code. A couple of coffee stations dotted about also.
Food and wine was good quality with plenty of selection as well as snacks (crisps, nuts, jellies).
Was too early to go looking for spirits but I did spot beers in the fridge and wine was on tap.
Overall a very nice space to kill some time and (Im told) typically very close to gates usually used by EI. Only let down was the length of time it took to get from kerb to lounge. Computer said no for fast track so regular security took about 20mins and then the train to T4S if you just miss one takes another 10 mins. Arriving 1h50 ahead of departure meant only about 25mins in the lounge.

I have only been in the DUB Lounge at 4-6am recently but I see the tv screens are always on with ‘Order Status’ and ‘Code of the Day’ etc. Is it possible to order meals later in the day? If so where do you find the menu?
In other news, the showers are currently unavailable because they are being “repainted”.

Flying Business class PHL to DUB then connecting onward to France. The link on the site shows access to the BA lounge in PHL , but that can be closed and / or pretty limited. Are there any other partner lounges available to me in PHL? The BA lounge closes at 630pm which is pretty useless for an 8:40 pm flight

Philadelphia British Airways Lounge Opposite Gate A14 / After Security (Open from: 15:00 - 20:30)
Should be fine for your 8:40pm flight and no, there are no alternatives if it's closed.
