## About The Athenaeum

The Athenaeum is a private members' club on Pall Mall, founded in 1824. Membership was established on the principle of achievement rather than social connection. The building is notable for a gilt statue erected in 1828 on its exterior.

The club houses a bar and restaurant. The restaurant offers a menu with a range of dishes, whilst the bar stocks an extensive selection of drinks. The wine list draws from vineyards across the world. Formal dress is required; jackets must be worn at all times. The club holds regular after-dinner speakers.
