When I was a kid and complained about the size of school lunches, my mom replied, "They feed you, they don't fatten you." Think that applies to some posts here.
I think a lot of people, myself included, hit the Club buffet if I'm (they're) either especially hungry or not sure about the size of the inflight meal. If they don't, they should.

Based on the fact I've had the same measly salad or impossible burger options on ALL my cross country flights the past 2.5 months, I'm gonna load up at the SC as much as I can these days.

Considering Ive now been on 4 flights in the last week of various lengths with preordering options, none of which features only salads or the vegetarian option, Im going to say you are exaggerating.

You would be incorrect. EVERY flight, I've had (where I've been in F) since early June has had 1) Chicken Salad, 2) Southwestern Shrimp Salad, 3) Impossible Burger. My flight to PHX tomorrow has the same 3 offerings for pre-order. So no, I'm not exaggerating. They've been all ex-ATL or to-ATL, so that probably has something to do with it. You may have different experiences, but don't tell me I'm exaggerating.

New drink menu is reportedly being unveiled on Sep. 6 per staff. Existing offerings will be replaced by new ones as they are exhausted.

Anyone fly through ATL in the past couple of weeks who can share what was being served at the clubs (likely I'll be at A or B)? I have a 50 min connection over dinner time on Thursday evening so wondering if I should even go in or just hit one of the fast food places. TIA!

Currently at ATL T Club.
They have a 'loaded mashed potato bar'
Cart with someone doing the serving. Get a bowl of mashed potatoes and then top with your choice of any of...
- Gravy
- Grilled chicken
- Bacon
- Green onion
- A couple of different cheeses
- Mushrooms
- Sour cream
and probably 5-6 other things I am forgetting.
Likely not healthy but it hit the spot.
Edit: 3pm Eastern they closed it up, no longer offered.
