Caledonian Club, London

This is a club, which means that the bar may be only open to members.

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.
