Review: The Club in Las Vegas Airport (Terminal 1 Concourse D)

For travelers flying out of Terminal 1 at Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) with Priority Pass access, The Club LAS provides a convenient but basic lounge experience. While it offers a quiet space and decent drink selection, the food is underwhelming, and the design feels outdated. Thanks to my Priority Pass via my Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card, I was able to visit—but I wouldn’t go out of my way to return.

Location

This Club LAS Lounge is located in LAS concourse D. Concourse D is separate from Terminals 1 and 3 at the LAS airport, so you must take a (quick) tram ride from either terminal to get there. (From Terminal 1, after passing through Security Checkpoint D, take the Blue Line train to the D gates. From Terminal 3, after passing through Security Checkpoints D and E, take the Red Line train to the D Gates.) Once in Concourse D, the lounge is centrally located near Gate D33, at the beginning of one of the terminal’s "arms."

If you're in Terminal 3, there's also another The Club Lounge near Gate E12.

Checking In

Despite other lounges being busy, check-in was smooth with no wait. The agent scanned my boarding pass and Priority Pass card, and I was in within seconds.

Impressions Of The Club LAS Lounge (Concourse D)

Layout/Seating

The Club LAS Concourse D feels like a lounge that hasn't been renovated in years. There were a few seating areas. Near the entrance, there is a small room with sofa chairs facing each other. Down the hall, there is an open seating area near large windows that look out over the runway, including office chairs and runway-facing counter seating. Around the corner is a bar area, and some tables by the “buffet” (more on that later). On the plus side, it was quiet and not overly crowded, but there weren't a lot of empty seats.

Amenities

The bathrooms in the lounge were small and individual, but clean.

Maybe the nicest part of this lounge and a big surprise is the shower rooms. Compared to the bathrooms, the shower rooms were surprisingly spacious. To use, simply ask the attendant, and they will let you in or put you on a waitlist.

The Food At The Club LAS Lounge (Concourse D): Not worth it

Notably, the presented food options looked unappetizing. There was a very basic salad bar, some oranges and bananas that looked like they’d be ripe next week, a soup station with Italian breadsticks, and a broken coffee machine. I am always disappointed if there is not at least a main/protein option out.

With that being said, each table had a QR code for ordering additional food, including small plates like lettuce wraps, Italian sliders, bruschetta, chicken tacos, and brownies. These were a slight improvement, but the buffet setup was so unappealing that I didn’t feel confident in the overall food quality.

On the drinks side, you could order from a handful of beers, cocktails, and wines. The drinks selection looked better than the food, with a handful of options, though guests are limited to ordering only one drink at a time.

Overall Rating of The Club LAS Lounge in LAS Concourse D: A Deserved 4/10

The Club LAS Concourse D is fine for a quick stop if you need a quiet place to sit and grab a drink or to freshen up with a shower, but don’t expect much from the food selection. If you have extra time and a choice between lounges, Terminal 3’s Club LAS is the better option.

  • Food Quality & Variety: 3/10
  • Cleanliness: 7/10
  • Interior Design: 3/10

If you're in Concourse D and without access to the Centurion Lounge, it’s a decent spot to relax—but not worth going out of your way for.
