Went for wedding in January. Setup was ideal for wedding with multiple rooms each offering a different setup like lounge, live music, vintage items of Racquet Club.Building looked great and the security fella was super friendly. Rooms are extremely small and you can everything down halls. Squash courts and basement with pool table looked decent. I wandered during wedding.

Beautiful place.Food is terrible. Went for a work function and was so disappointed by the food. My salmon was riddled with bones and was dry, my asparagus was burnt and my mashed potatoes were lumpy. The dessert was chocolate cake which was about as dry as the salmon. For a members only club in center City Philadelphia I truly expected much more. Also, slightly disappointed with the wait staff, they were slow and seemed inexperienced. Multiple people looked my way and no one came to get our dirty plates.

1. Beautiful clubhouse — Horace Trumbauer masterpiece with a bunch of squash courts, pool, amazing basement bar, and two really cool ancient sports: rackets and court tennis (aka real tennis).2. Friendly members — low-key place where you don’t talk shop.3. Great staff — competent, friendly, with a can-do attitude. They figure out how to get it done.

I go here for a weekly meeting held in a downstairs room. The place has a faded elegance that is palpable. It is grand and gives you a bit of that old world elite feeling. Unfortunately, the food always comes out late the temperature is a bit off and the water glasses are dirty. If it wasnt for the great ambiance it would be a two star place.

Nice place but make no mistake: they are NOT wheelchair accessible or friendly. Stay away if you use a chair otherwise be frustrated by no accessible entrance or bathrooms. A ramp too steep for safety, leading to a step at the top is not accessible. And it’s in a dingy back alley.

Drove to Philadelphia and set up reciprocity club usage to have lunch. Very bummed it was a far from an elegant lunch venue. I will say our young lady that brought our sandwiches/lunch was delightful.

Lived there for two nights as a guest speaker for an industry event. Absolutely lovely - comfy beds, squeaky clean almost everything, and the waiter is unbelievably helpful, butlers maybe. Also an amazing indoor collection of art.

On paper fine place and old style barber. however, their hours are suited to them, and they do haircuts in 15 mins and scissors poke scalp. when mentioned the lady barber didnt care. enough other places nearby dont need hassle of parking, limited hours no weekends and basically a rush job
