The Club at Birch House has opened its doors in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, offering a new private club experience that combines intimate hospitality with the established legacy of The Pillars Hotel & Club. Located at the former Birch House property adjacent to The Pillars Hotel, the club is seamlessly integrated with the hotel, creating a unified destination for dining, conversation, and community.
With membership intentionally limited, The Club at Birch House features an elegant lounge, bar, and integrated dining space that extends to a poolside terrace. Members will enjoy thoughtfully curated seasonal cuisine, special events, and reciprocal privileges with an international network of private clubs, along with access to select amenities and services at The Pillars Hotel. This opening builds on more than two decades of exceptional service at The Pillars Hotel & Club, which has earned numerous international accolades, including multiple Condé Nast Johansens Awards and recognition among Florida's finest boutique hotels.
Owners Michael and Barbara Landry emphasized the vision behind the new club: "We wanted to create a place where members and their guests could enjoy outstanding food, gracious service, and meaningful connections in a relaxed and welcoming setting, while also benefiting from the unique connection to The Pillars Hotel." The Club at Birch House represents a natural evolution of that tradition—smaller, more personal, and thoughtfully integrated with The Pillars Hotel to enhance the overall guest and member experience.
This opening is significant for Fort Lauderdale's hospitality scene, as it introduces a highly exclusive private club option in a market known for its boutique hotels. The club's connection to The Pillars Hotel allows members to leverage the hotel's acclaimed services while enjoying a more private setting. Membership inquiries are now being accepted, and the club is expected to attract both local residents and visitors seeking a refined social experience.
The Club at Birch House is an intimate private club offering exceptional dining, a welcoming lounge and bar, poolside hospitality, curated events, and reciprocal privileges with private clubs around the world. For more information, visit birchhouse.com.
