Is there still a First Class lounge there?
It isn't accessible at all to anyone. There is no first class lounge at St Pancras any more.

Strange how unhelpful AI can be

Yes, St. Pancras International has a First Class lounge for eligible Eurostar and East Midlands Railway (EMR) passengers, but access and amenities vary. The Eurostar Premier lounge is available for Premier ticket holders and certain loyalty members, offering cocktails, canapés, and other refreshments. There is also the East Midlands First Class Lounge for eligible EMR First Class ticket holders, though it is smaller and has limited hours, with no weekend opening.

Its interesting as I got a different answer
"East Midlands Railway does not have a dedicated First Class lounge at St Pancras International Station. Recent upgrades have resulted in a new Travel Centre and Assistance Lounge, but this is a waiting area for passengers requiring assistance, not a First Class lounge with complimentary food and drinks. First Class benefits for EMR services are now served onboard the trains, which include complimentary food, treats, and drinks served at your seat, available from Monday to Saturday.
Lounge access: There is no specific East Midlands Railway First Class lounge at St Pancras.
Alternative facilities: A new Travel Centre and Assistance Lounge has been opened in the Grand Terrace, near the EMR platforms, for ticketing, travel advice, and for passengers with assistance needs.
Onboard service: First Class amenities, including food and drinks, are served at your seat on the train from Monday to Saturday"

Thanks all. It still appears on the station map on the National Rail website...
Google's AI summaries are not at all reliable - I would not put any faith in them on any subject. Always clicks the web links for chapter and verse.

That was my point. In this day and age lots of people ask a question and once they see what they want to see at the top they’re happy.
until they discover the information is wrong.
As the OP's question has been answered we will leave it there.
