About Caledonian Club

Founded in 1891 in as a club for Scotsmen in London, today membership is also open to ladies plus those with a close association with Scotland. Just off Belgrave Square and built in 1907 as a private residence to the designs of Detmar Blow, the current clubhouse opened in 1946. A sympathetically designed eastwards extension, completed in about 2005, provides additional accommodation and facilities.

The Members' Bar, at the rear of the original building overlooking the terrace, tartan-carpeted with upholstered chairs and small tables, offers a cask ale from the eponymous brewery, no keg beer at all, a variety of bottled beers, including some from BrewDog and other Scottish breweries and, as might be expected, a superb range of malt whiskies!

Hours given are the bar opening hours.

Note that the club has a dress code that varies by day of week, see venue website.

    Great place where to host your gala event. The building is nicely decorated full of history and refined. This place is even featured in The Crown series en S5E4 were royalty attends to a venue. My photos are from the Ambassador Gala dinner organised by APARU and the Ango Argentinean Society.

    Very nice and cosy place. I would just recommend putting some labels on food as nowadays people have so many allergies and dietary requirements. Other than that nice venue and good service.

    Situated on a nice street within Belgravia, the Caledonian Club boasts dining areas, event spaces, and serves as a welcoming social and cultural hub for members who share an interest in Scottish culture.

    Wonderfully traditional "members private club" but available for special functions. Old school, museum-esque, great function rooms. Wonderful in-house catering for delicious, innovative meals to meet all needs.

    Very charming, oldy worldy place. Really enjoyed. Is a private club so you need to know a member.
