Friday 4 pm: access open to PP but there is near zero seating, it's crowded here.
Small space, not the biggest lounge so that's part of it. Meatballs, a few salads, 2 soups, rice, etc.

Any thoughts on best option (mainly food wise but also drink) around 11 am weekend ANA departure? Prem Econ so at baseline have I think virgin access. Family of 5 so a not crowded one would be a plus. Also have access to cap one lounge on Z concourse.

I'd say they are probably similar in quality, but the BA feels much more relaxed because it's roomier and the TK lounge gets packed.

First time at the IAD Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse during Priority Pass hours in quite a while... surprised at the dearth of complimentary beverage and food options. Just some stale bagels and small fruit cups available for free, everything else had to be purchased (even the tater tots). At the bar, the only complimentary alcoholic option available was Pabst Blue Ribbon beer (at 10am). Even a simple bloody mary or mimosa was an upcharge. Why even bother with this lounge any more as a Priority Pass holder when AF is a 30 second walk away?

I am flying out of IAD in June on a Virgin Atlantic flight which leaves at 10:15pm. It sounds like there's a ton of PP options during the day, but most cut off PP access around dinner time to clear space for the airline's actual business class passengers. Can anyone provide a summary of which lounges still admit PP (and/or Amex Plat) holders during the evening?
