    Arrival lounge says it’s open until 14:00, offering a full English breakfast until 12:00. If you’re travelling in on First – If I get there after midday, do they offer some sort of lunch in the Concorde dining area section if they stop breakfast at midday?

    Land at 11am so cutting it fine to get there before midday.

    I have wondered this too but never stopped to investigate. From an old review online:
    “The lounge closes at 2pm, so they only offer breakfast. They don’t do a full lunch service. I entered the lounge at 12pm. The following was on offer:

    Soup
    Sausages
    Bacon
    Scrambled eggs
    Baked beans
    Mushrooms
    Breakfast potatoes
    Sandwiches
    Pastries
    Chopped fruit
    Salad
    Fruit
    Ice Cream”

    I recall being in the lounge about midday and although the breakfast materials were being taken away, there was still food to eat in the main part of the lounge.

    By comparison, last year I arrived into T3 on an American flight after midday and made my way to the AA arrivals lounge… although a smaller lounge, the greeting and service to direct you to a shower (which was also better fitted out) was a distinct step up from the T5 lounge. There wasn’t a buffet breakfast, but had no problem ordering breakfast food a la carte at about 1pm.
