I think the F experience is hugely superior to J. CCR is a different world from the Galleries lounges (though at least going to NYC you could use the B lounge which is much nicer), you can pick your seats from the time of booking (if you don’t have the requisite status) and you have the convenience of being able to use You First in the event of any issues with your booking.
The food in the CCR isn’t exactly gourmet, but it’s not bad at all and the restaurant-style dining is very pleasant – when we were there in March we ate in that section for the first time and our waitress seemed to appear magically each time our champagne needed topping up!
