A calm contemporary United Club on the Terminal A mezzanine, with tarmac views and natural light.

About this lounge

The United Club in Terminal A sits on the mezzanine level near gate A27, a contemporary retreat above the bustle of Newark's newest terminal. It serves United Club members and eligible Star Alliance travellers, and its design strikes a polished-yet-approachable note: sleek modern decor in neutral tones is lifted by pops of blue, and large windows pull in natural light while giving views over the tarmac. The space is thoughtfully divided into distinct areas — cozy nooks with plush chairs for unwinding, communal tables for those who want to spread out or socialize — yet despite the open layout it keeps a relatively tranquil feel. The noise level stays at a pleasant murmur, broken only by the occasional boarding announcement, which makes it a comfortable spot to relax or catch up on work before a flight. As one of three United Clubs at EWR, it's the natural choice if you're departing from Terminal A.

Food & drink

Standard United Club fare — a hot and cold buffet with snacks alongside a bar serving wines, beers and spirits, plus coffee, tea and soft drinks. A reliable spread to eat and drink before a flight rather than a full restaurant menu.
