The lounge isn't a bad option either but you don't get the full experience and if you have kids that's not really an option.
Children can sit at tables in the lounge. However, they are not allowed to sit at the bar. The problem with doing standby at the lounge is that it is bar seating. If you have children in your party, you need a regular reservation so you will get seating at a table.How do you not get the full experience in the lounge? The lounge seating is above the dining room seating, has a more flexible menu and a better view - kids are also welcome in the lounge.
You have to wait, and it’s for the bar only.When you put your name on the standby list, do you have to wait around there or will they text you if you get a spot in the lounge/bar?
