Last month we were lucky enough to travel business
class to Barcelona, I recently shared our wonderful business class experience,
but want to conclude by talking about the Heathrow Business Lounge.
The Galleries lounge is set aside from the hustle
and bustle of the terminal 5, as soon as you check into the lounge you feel the
sense of quality. It is vast with several areas for eating, working, and
relaxing.
On arrival we decided to get a spot of lunch so
found seats in the dining area, the area consists of huge communal bench/tables, the
great thing about this is you can mostly always find a seat. Once we found our
seat we decided to start with a nice glass of wine, I must say the choice was
endless with many good red and white wines, we went for a nice Pouilly
Fume which we enjoyed whilst taking the opportunity to chill and people
watch. The choice of lunch was great and offered something to suit all tastes,
including soup and a choice of sandwiches through to chili, rice, curry, jacket
potatoes and salad. There was also a choice of cookies and cakes for
pudding.
Coffee, tea and soft drinks were also on constant
supply with several cafe bar style areas. There were always a plentiful supply
of cups, plates, and cutlery. And food and drink supplies were continuously
replenished during the time we spent in the lounge.
Once we had eaten we made ourselves a coffee and
looked for a comfy seat to chill out and read our books, there was lots of
choice ranging from cafe style table and chairs, chairs and comfy sofas,
offering you the option to sit with a laptop and work or snuggle and read a
book.
