Birch Road is an independent, women-owned network of BYOB neighborhood clubhouses with locations in Chicago, Seattle, and Denver (coming soon!). As an alternative to entertaining at home or meeting in a bar or restaurant, the Birch Road clubhouse is a home-away-from-home for members to gather with friends, entertain clients, or meet others in the community.
Monthly membership at one of the clubhouses includes fingerprint access to the clubhouse, a personal locker in a temperature-controlled bottle storage cellar, access to private event spaces for larger gatherings or to the member lounge and tasting room for more casual nights with friends. The clubhouse pantry is filled with all the tools and accoutrements needed for the night, making gathering with friends easier than ever. There are no bartenders, no TVs, and no bill at the end of the night.
Rooted in the belief that the best path to the community is through good drinks and good conversation, Birch Road welcomes members to take more time focused on what matters most: the people at their table. For more information, visit www.birchroad.com.
