The design of the lounge has a familiar feel for those who have visited other Sapphire Lounges. The decor features art and elements of Western heritage. There is use of warm lighting, leather seating, brass accents, and stone countertops in the bar area. There is a variety of seating, including chairs, sofas, and common areas with tables.

The lounge also features a family room, a private nursing room, and bookable private rest pods. As far as relaxation and wellness goes, Chase offers Face Haus facials, restrooms, showers, and Peloton stretches and meditations created exclusively for the lounge and available for streaming on customers smartphones.

Dining and Beverages

A chef partnership with Encina, the popular local restaurant, brings guests Texas-inspired flavors with a modern American influence. Sample selections include blue corn butterscotch pancakes in the mornings and a slab bacon dish with cheddar grits in the afternoons. Guests can also enjoy locally roasted coffee from Cherry Coffee. The signature bar offers a curated wine list from Parcelle, along with signature and regionally inspired cocktails. The beverage program highlights local offerings across spirits, cocktails, and beer, including selections from breweries throughout the state of Texas.

The lounge also features a dedicated whiskey lounge, complete with a whiskey cart that offers guided pairings, a featured cocktail, and a handpicked selection of Texas whiskeys, including a custom barrel selection exclusive to the lounge.

Closing Thoughts

As a person who lives in Texas, I am excited to try the food and drink choices. I really look forward to visiting this lounge and hope to spend some time here when I am in Dallas later this year. I am also happy to see another lounge at DFW—the world’s fourth-busiest airport. With the opening of this lounge, DFW now has all three main bank lounges consisting of American Express, Capital One, and now Chase. Additionally, Terminal D is now a hub for lounge options, with Plaza Premium, The Club, Admirals Club, Minute Suites, and Be Relax all having a location there.
