Bangalore T2 arrival 080 lounge

[anandmohan]

Upon arrival in T2 Bangalore just before I saw the exit sign I came across the direction to arrival lounge. So went to try the same. It is managed by 080. And the main issue is they don't accept any cards. Infinia, magnus, idfc wealth cc, idfc private dc, SBI octane, etc were all declined. Then they said they do accept priority pass. So I entered the same with pp. It is a small lounge compared to all Bangalore departure lounges.
Food is ala carte with limited options. They do serve quickly though. Portions were small but tasty and healthy too I suppose. As they have many millet options, quinoa things, air frier french fries etc.
Liquor can be purchased and they are not complimentary.
Cold drink section was a joke. They had few paper boat swing juices and thumbs up etc. all were inside a cooler but the insides of the cooler was hotter than the surroundings. I think that's because of very less foot fall they were kept off to save power.
When enquired they said Max per day they get 35 guests. So when I entered the lounge with my son we were the only guests. There were more than 8 staff around to assist us.

The bathroom is small with a couple of wc and sink. Also there is shower facility which is a relief for long distance travellers.
Then there is vip section with a big tv and a few cozy sofa like chairs.
Am attaching a few pictures of the same and also will update the next visit if they accept any cc.

I had seen this lounge a few months ago but because of a tight schedule could not visit that time. But this time was determined to visit the same and share the experience as i could not find any write ups or mentions about the same anywhere. Hope this helps some international travellers who have had long flights. Also domestic travellers who travel on business will be benefitted by this as they have shower etc for freshening up.

Recently visited. They accepted infinia.

Didn't have lot of time, it was breakfast time, menu had many items but only idly could be given instantly, other items would take time. I asked for idly and cold pressed juice, very good quality food.

Coffee machine was broke.

Will try more food the next time i get a chance, but definitely worth to go based on the food quality and the clean maintenance

Rupay Select works here, my BoB Select was accepted and the charge slip shows 3 free access per quarter vs BoB's website that says two.

Unless I'm mistaken, Magnus priority pass is no longer free for domestic lounges. But I don't have Magnus so cannot confirm. It's easier to get a Rupay Select Debit card from a PSU bank and use at lounges. The list is much longer than most banks' credit cards.
