British Club Las Palmas

The British Club, founded on October 2nd, 1908, is located in an iconic colonial era building dating from 1902, and retains a quiet and peaceful atmosphere – most of the time!  Centrally situated in Ciudad Jardin, next to the Ayuntamiento, we have our own car park for members and we maintain a programme of events throughout the year as well as a well stocked bar and a restaurant offering full meals or snacks as you prefer.  An ideal spot for meeting friends, business lunches or just to have a quiet drink in the bar and read the newspaper.

If you are interested in joining the Club or just coming along for a look please do feel free to give us a call or email us. We welcome members of all nationalities and host numerous activities.

There is an active bridge club, also canasta, chess, book club, poetry readings, pub quizzes and of course special events such as Christmas Dinner (with our resident pianist to add some festive flavour), Burns Night (likewise), St Patrick’s Day and others throughout the year.

We also have reciprocal visiting arrangements with the National Liberal Club and the Royal Overseas League based in central London.

Come and visit us, we hope you will find something to suit you!
