Back again this morning around 9am. Same menu as earlier in the month but the individual Egg Diavlo skillet servings have been replaced by a large serve yourself pan.

Thanks to the previous posters for the knowledge that showers were opening. Happy to report that as of 25-Jul-2021 the shower is open for business. Note that shower gel was empty during my visit so may be worth checking before the attendant leaves. No hair dryer present but hand dryer did the job in a pinch. Very clean and nice quality towels. Rain shower was a nice respite from 14 hours of travel.

When I was there only the first door on the left was used. Wife and I separately showered and they cleaned between our sessions, so they may be soft starting with only one room in use to start. They did not offer us two rooms in parallel, only one room in serial. To be honest though, I didn't even know there were multiple rooms to be had.

-Salad
-Bruschetta
-Fruit (berry) medley
-Cookies and brownies
Pretty busy, but they kept the food coming.

Stopped by this morning after an early connecting flight which arrived at 6:30. Line started to form at 6:45, and was quite long by the time the lounge opened at 7:00, but probably took no more than 5 min to get in if you were at the back of the line. Only cold food available at opening, hot food started to come out around 7:20 or so. About 1/2 the tables were taken. Minimal to no lines to get food and drinks. Self serve buffet as other folks have described. Pleasant experience overall.

Visited on Friday 7/30 between 4:30-5:30. Impressed with management and staff who were doing an amazing job keeping everything flowing — and pretty amazing food as always. Gave my compliments to the manager given how stressful it must be when things get crowded.

/We visited for our first time on Sunday 8/8.
Great lounge, by far one of the best in the system, but what is with the wait. When we were leaving, they had a 45 minute wait and no less than 75% of the tables in the dining area were available.
We were told a 20 minute wait which turned into 35 minutes. Seems a bit excessive, and if you ask an employee, they just snap and say that "it is always like this"

We arrived at 2:45 PM and flight was departing at 5:30 PM. So right towards the beginning of peak rush hour returns for a Sunday, I will give you that.
Even then TSA Pre had 1 person in line, and at Denver I have waited 15 minutes for Pre Check before.

Maybe they’re running at reduced capacity due to staffing? I’m not sure what the Denver laws are currently for occupancy with COVID.

I’ve only waited once - and that was around Easter when they still had to limit to 25-50% capacity and gave you an assigned table. Since then, I’ve been 3-4 during busier times (Fridays) without any wait, even in the evening when people would be flying out after work.
Nice that they are back to a full buffet, serve yourself with whatever portions you’d like.
