In an effort to increase its offerings over the past few months, Priority Pass has begun to add restaurants to its list of airport lounges. The newest addition is Bobby Van’s Steakhouse in New York’s JFK International Airport (Terminal 8).

Simply present your valid membership card, order off the menu as you normally would, and Priority Pass will provide you with a $28 credit toward your meal. Note that unlike other Priority Pass restaurants, members are limited to one guest at Bobby Van’s. Your guest will also receive a $28 credit for a total of $56 off your visit. You are responsible for gratuity. If you spent less than $28 per person, just leave a cash tip and go. If you spent more, then pay the balance plus your tip.

Bobby Van’s Steakhouse is located in Terminal 8 opposite Gate 14. According to their website:

Bobby Van’s only airport location brings an elegant dining experience that will blow any traveler away. Just steps past security, Bobby Van’s Grill brings the same high-quality steakhouse and grill fare of other Bobby Van’s establishments to airport dining. With a large and well-stocked bar as well as a dining room complete with table clothes and beautiful chandeliers, guests can enjoy a dining experience that will help them forget they are at the airport. For those diners who need to stay aware of flight status updates, flight charts are visible from the tables, and take out meals are available for those making a quick connection.

You can find Bobby Van’s JFK lunch and dinner menu here and their breakfast menu here.

JFK International Airport Terminal 8 is home to American Airlines. Other Oneworld Alliance airlines that operate out of Terminal 8 include Cathay Pacific, Finnair, LATAM Brasil, LATAM Chile, Qatar Airwais and Royal Jordanian.
