The global reference for hospitality.
This private Mayfair dining club is known for Italian cooking, Venetian-inspired decoration and polished, discreet service. Unlike its public namesakes elsewhere, Harry's Bar in London is a members institution with dining at the centre of its identity.
The Story
Origin
Opened by Mark Birley in 1979, Harry's Bar established a distinctly Italian dining identity within London's private club landscape.
Philosophy
A consistent culinary identity and personal service sustain a deliberately intimate members environment.
Why Important
A longstanding example of restaurant-led private membership, where cuisine and service carry the institution's reputation.

Italian cooking, including seasonal ingredients and established classics, is the principal reason to visit.
Guest Experience
Members and invited guests come primarily for lunch or dinner, with the dining room providing the club's social focus.
Design Philosophy
Venetian references create a decorative, intimate alternative to the darker interiors associated with traditional British clubs.
Design & Architecture

Intimate Venetian-inspired elegance.
Interior Design
Decorative fabrics, Venetian glass and carefully dressed dining tables establish a warm, formal setting.
