Founded in 1908, The Harvard Club was named a Platinum Club of the World—the only private club in New England to achieve this distinction. In 2017, Harvard Hall at the Back Bay Clubhouse was named “Best Ballroom” in the city by Boston Magazine. The Back Bay Clubhouse facilities include the Club Pub, the Veritas restaurant and lounge, ten squash courts and a fitness center. Dress code is business casual for members and guests. Appropriate denim slacks (not torn, frayed or excessively worn) are acceptable at the clubhouse.
