What is the BA F ala carte dining like at SFO? You don’t really hear much from anyone about the food BA serves on the ground to F at all. Is it comparable to QF’s F food or AA’s Flagship F dining?

Personally I find the menu very limiting and somewhat uninspiring (and those two may be linked!)

$28 single use voucher. Can be redeemed at restaurants plus selected retail concessions that serve fresh and ambient snacks. There are no concessions near the BA gates (A2/A3), so any foraging expeditions will take you to either Concourse B, or C, or both.
No duty free retail but it’s coming in the near future

SEA J Terraces now has new seats. They are rather unadvantageously arranged. Windows now have a bar/barstool setup much as in GC North. Piper-Heidsieck Champagne in J lounge gone, and has been enhanced to Prosecco. I'm having an Alaskan IPA. They've also added two kinds of hot sandwiches.

Just been turned away from Qantas First lounge at LAX as they said they weren’t accepting AA customers (domestic first from international) even with BA status. It wasn’t at all busy but I guess they could be expecting hoards in the near future for westbound flights.
If you go for an espresso martini in the OW business lounge, stay alert or they will make it with Baileys!
Commendable shower in the T8 Flagship Lounge though, which even appears to have some air con, unlike some where you seem to come out sweatier than when you went in.

I was admitted a couple of weeks ago for breakfast before a short flight to SAN. Domestic first ticket booked with AA, but with my BA OWE status attached.

Just to update, allowed in today at 10:40 - after much inspection of BPs. First time in here but only expect to be here for 30 mins, and it is still the breakfast menu. I imagine it would be excellent later in the day.

The Club in MSY has indeed opened, and is available to both BA, Priority Pass and AA eligible passengers. Open 04:30 to 21:30 hrs daily.
Here is a local media report:

Extract:
Travelers looking for a place to rest or keep working at Louis Armstrong International Airport now have another option. Texas-based Airport Dimensions and local partner JCM Management Group are opening The Club MSY in the airport’s new $1 billion terminal on Thursday.
The 4,700-square-foot space features unique fixtures and furnishings as well as a bar in the shape of a saxophone, a news release said. An illuminated, deconstructed, hand-blown crystal chandelier designed and created by local artists Erikdavid Kraemer is the focal point of the space, the release said. There is also photography by David Spielman, artwork by Ayo Scott, food by Chef John Folse and cocktails by Kathy Casey.
