This is a club for BBC employees, pensioners, families, and partner employees, founded as a private members' club in 1924 and hence it celebrated its centenary year in 2024. The venue is open from 8am to 11am for breakfast pastries and then meal times as given; the bar opens at noon. Normally two cask ales are available.

It relocated from nearby to the main BBC building in April 2024, and now shares the Media Cafe space overlooking the newsroom. From late 2024 and by Council agreement with the BBC, this area is barred to the general public or audience members attending BBC radio shows unless they have passed security checks.
