That A club has no espresso machine - drives me crazy.
Was in the pop-up club last week and the bartender did not wear a mask...I was kind of shocked (not that it really bothered me...it was just her and me in the club at one point). Not a UA employee, but still...

Hopefully this charade comes to an end soon.

Seriously, the machines have been removed from the C74 United Club?
I know there were two there less than a year ago but could have sworn I had an espresso there with the one machine on the right side of the bar as late as Dec 2021.
Is that what happened to the A lounge or the A lounge never had one?
I can't believe it. So pathetic.

FLiK Hospitality reportedly will begin supplying new machines in the near future.
They do still have one functioning machine at SFO rotunda, along with one broken one, both of the same model they had at EWR. Has SFO not yet transitioned to FLiK? I had unthinkingly assumed the machines were actually owned by United, which would fit if SFO is transitioned, but it would be a little odd if FLiK are managing the machines and they have already let it break. I guess I would also assume if there is a third party leasing the machines to United, that United wouldn't have historically been so "shy" about fixing them.

Just FYI the espresso machine at EWR’s LH lounge does work, in case someone wants to check them out in B between 2:30 and 8:30 PMs

Continue in Access to LH / SK Lounge at EWR

The sad state of EWR UC continues... 
In the rare occasion I do get to the airport in advance of departure, I would sit by an empty gate even if I have access to UC.

Im flying out of C138 tomorrow - but will have some time to kill at the airport. How far roughly is the walk from the C74 club to the gate? Its tough to tell from the airport maps.
Edit to add: I do have access to the Terminal B International clubs w/ my Amex Platinum - is it worth just going over there instead?
