About the University Club of Chicago

The University Club of Chicago is a premier private club located in the heart of downtown Chicago. We offer world-class amenities including six unique dining venues, 59 beautifully appointed guest rooms, state-of-the-art squash and athletic facilities, 13 private event spaces, and much more.

Established in 1887 by a small group of university graduates, this member-owned private social and recreational club has significantly impacted the City's cultural landscape.

The membership is committed to fostering an appreciation of literature and the arts and to providing a space where members can explore many intellectual and cultural pursuits.

College or university graduation remains the requirement for membership, and nearly every business and profession are represented within the diverse network of members.

The UCC has an extensive and active food and beverage and events program. The club's centerpiece, Cathedral Hall is adorned with painted glass windows by artist Frederic Clay Bartlett (a club member) and coats of arms representing distinguished universities in the United States and Europe.

The club has three other a la carte outlets including The Parliament (a casual rooftop restaurant), College Hall (a self-service restaurant), and room service.

Three bars/lounges are available for members including the Living Room, the Presidents' Bar, and the Game Room.

The University Club of Chicago has 13 private dining rooms that can be rented and combined for events. At times, some of the a la carte restaurants are used for member and club events.

Private dining rooms can accommodate seating for 30 to 400 and are located on the second, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth floors.

The club hosts approximately 80 weddings per year and its largest annual member event is the New Year's Day Open House when the club hosts approximately 2,100 members and guests.

The Junior Suite overlooks Lake Michigan and Millennium Park and the 1,000-square-foot Park Suite has unparalleled views of Chicago's noted Michigan Avenue.

Athletics is another integral part of the club and spaces include six international squash courts, one doubles court, Area 13 (a group training center), a strength training center, a cardio squash center, a golf training center, and an aquatic and group exercise center.

Additional member amenities include a staffed library, an expansive member business center, outdoor dining terraces, an art gallery, and valet and concierge services.

The club also has reciprocity with some 285 private clubs around the world.
