The lounge guide links in the forum dashboard will give you some information about what lounges are available in BUD.

As for T3, you can use any of the AA/BA/CX J lounges - CX one is the best of the three.

You’ll be able to use the Platinum lounge in Budapest, but it’s very basic. If you want to get some food I recommend going to Leroy (to your right as you come out of security). You should also be able to order food from Leroy to the lounge, but the selection is much more limited.

The CX lounge in T3 is excellent, as mentioned here before!

You can still go. The fare still exists if you want to go direct on BA, just not if you want to go via HEL.

Platinum lounge there is fine. Good views of the runway. Not much food - but there never is at most European lounges.

Being a local to both BUD and VIE, neither lounge is very good, VIE being better IMO due to less crowding and more food provisioning, but lacks the views that BUD affords.

I was in the Budapest lounge a few weeks back on a Sunday morning. It was OK to while away the time, I can't recall there being any hot food, but lots of continental breakfast items.
