British Airways Lounge, Terminal 3

First time in club world (business class) at British airlines. They have a nice lounge for club members. Fairly small compared to other lounges I’ve been to. However still a great experience, it was fairy close to my gate. The reception was so friendly and notified us when our flight was boarding via (PA). It had a nice area for complimentary drinks (full bar) — however it is self service so my DIY Caesar was pretty terrible.
They have specific hot meal times. We were able to catch the 5 o clock dinner time. They had some hot foods like a dumpling station, pasta station, some meats and a cake station. Nice sit down meal.
Free wifi, but not too many outlets available for plug ins.

Nice lounge, a bit small but has awesome dinner buffet. Friendly service as well. Would recommend to go early and enjoy the dinner, it’s better than the business class meals served on plane.

The lounge is passable in being away from the busy terminal area. The staff were quite rude and indifferent. There is some stupid rule that while OneWorld Emerald Members can use the First Class Lounge, they aren’t actually allowed to eat or drink there, even though the lounge has a service restaurant and a bar. I did confirm from BA that this is «policy»… dumb policy … but policy.
Electrical outlets were very scarce. There were some in the floor that I managed to use. There are no showers or restrooms – at least according to the staff who really wanted to be anywhere but there.
If you have nowhere else to go and you need to sit in a dry, hungry, quiet and you enjoy indifferent service, come here.

Like most of the European Airlines, the BA lounge doesn’t disappoint here in TO. The North American carriers should take note and learn from the amazing lounges from BA and others.
While I find Terminal 3 to be the nicest one at Pearson, having access to the BA lounge has the usual benefits: less crowded than common areas, wi-​fi, nice washrooms, computers (for those rare creatures out there who aren’t connected somehow), comfortable chairs, magazines and an endless amount of good and drink options. From light snacks to full meals, from water to liquor and passing through many coffee and tea options, there’s definitely something here that will please all.
The main dining area is separated from the rest area (where the comfy chairs are) via some tempered glass and you get the feeling of being at a restaurant.
The lounge is on the small side but I’ve never encountered a problem finding an available seat. You might end up seating next to a stranger but you’ll be so happy with all the entertainment, food and drink options that nothing will be able to spoil the experience.
