The Club LAS Terminal 3 Lounge Review
By Tim Qin – May 23 2024
There is only one lounge in Vegas airport's Terminal 3—The Club
I had a short layover at Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) and with my limited time, I decided to stop by The Club lounge located in Terminal 3. While I’ve been to Vegas airport several times, I’ve never been to this lounge in particular, so I was excited to check it out for the first time. Here’s my review on the lounge, what I did to access it, and how I rate its food, aesthetic, and amenities.

Where Is The Club Lounge LAS Terminal 3
When you get through security at Terminal 3, take an immediate left. This lounge is located at the complete far end of the terminal, near gate E2, so expect to need to walk a bit to get there.

How I Accessed The Club Lounge LAS Terminal 3
This lounge can be accessed using Priority Pass Select, which is a lounge pass offered by many premium travel credit cards. In my particular case, I used my Chase Sapphire Reserve®’s Priority Pass card, allowed me to bring up to 2 guests per lounge visit.
When I came to the entrance, the agent asked for my Priority Pass card, license, and boarding pass. After a few scans here and there, I was through.
First Impressions: Sleek, Modern Design, But Can Get Crowded
When you walk into the first part of the lounge, you’re immediately greeted with a nice ambiance. This lounge is nicely designed, with a nice combination of browns, whites, and grays alongside an emphasis of wood paneling. It is structured in a flowing layout, where 3 rooms are interconnected between each other. Walking into the first room, you’ll find the bar, dinner buffet, and drinks.

First room: bar + food
After this room, you’ll find the first general seating area, which has ample seating options, including tables, plush armchairs, and cozy sofas. The armchairs and footrests here are great for quick naps.
Second room: general seating
Second room: lounge area
And then if you keep walking down, you’ll wander into the third room, which basically just has more seating. Here, there are also some private one person sofas, which are great to do work in or take a nap.
Third room: more seating—sofa style + private seats
The bathrooms were also located in this room. I was pretty impressed with how clean the bathrooms were, despite the large volume of passengers going through this lounge. If anything, I expected things to be pretty unhygienic, but the cleaning staff did a great job here.

During the course of my brief stay, the lounge quickly become crowded. I was overhearing people at one point saying there was now a 1 hour wait to just get into this lounge. Pretty crazy all things considered... I was glad I had gotten in during the time I did.
The Food At The Club Lounge LAS Terminal 3
While the food station was small and only occupied a small wall, I was actually pretty happy with the food. There was a salad bar, pastries/desserts section, soup, and then a hot buffet.
Salad bar
Soup
Braised chicken, rice, mashed potatos
Broccoli, pulled pork sandwiches
Surprisingly, I thought all the hot buffet items were not bad. The broccoli was definitely a surprise—crunchy, yet soft and not mushy. The braised chicken was extremely juicy and the pork burgers were really good.
On the other side of the lounge, you could find the coffee/drinks station. The coffee was made from a machine and water was available via self serve dispensers. I saw some people ordering coke/sprite from the bar.

In summary, I was pleasantly surprised by the hot buffet.
My Overall Rating Of The Club Lounge LAS Terminal 3: 6/10
I rate lounges based on a few general criteria:
- Food Quality & Variety: 6/10
- Cleanliness: 8/10
- Interior Design: 7/10
- Unique Amenities: 3/10
While this lounge is generally kept pretty clean and has a nice design, there aren’t a lot of unique amenities that bring a special spark to it. Furthermore, it has some good food, but there is not a lot of variety beyond the options available. Overall, the lounge exceeded my initial expectations, but I think could easily reach into the 7/8 territory with a few more amenities or more variety in food.
