The Glencoe Club Reviews

An awesome sports and social club. Family oriented but quite expensive fees and more for extra lessons and programs.

If you're not a member visit as a guest! Amazing facility.

We're not members but always have a great time when we get invited. The kids especially love the bowling alley! In the summer, you can't beat the restaurant's patio.

Interesting place to play tennis as its carpet. Looks very nice inside

Amazing club. The food could be better but besides that there isn't a single thing to complain about. The staff is always extremely pleasant, there's a lot to do there for both families and adults, Great gym to work out in and great trainers. 10/10 would reccomend over the Winter Club

I was a guest for an interclub tennis game and it was my first time there. Very nice facility overall (unusual court surface). The members who hosted were very helpful and the staff I interacted with were very professional. Thank you for a good time.

Awesome facilities, a little pricey, but we'll worth it.

Great facilities, and awesome place to spend your weekend! Food is great, but very overpriced.

I've belonged to this club for many years and have been impressed with their long time staff, who are friendly.

Staff was very friendly and somebody took the time to give a full tour... Facilities are clean and well staff, lots to do.

Visiting and had a chance to use the facilities today. Nice club, lots of options for getting active and a decent food service.

Members only. Great facility for dining, sports and to bring guests

Amazing club, has lots of activities you can enjoy with your family or colleagues

Wow! Such a great sports complex. Service is world class, and architecture is stunning. Totally recommendable.

Fantastic club with a rich history that follows the growth of the city. No better place for a family to be, the Glenco offers excellent sports facilities from tennis and squash to swimming and bowling, this is Calgary s premier club.

The Glencoe Club is one of the best places to spend a summer day. The outdoor pool is always warm and inviting and the food is amazing, would strongly recommend.

Great buffet, wonderful prizes, icebreaker is the best

Visited for a figure skating examination on a Friday night. Firstly, thank-you Glencoe for donating the ice to the community kids due to the original cancellation!

Club is super 'chic' & clean. Serving staff were very helpful in the cafeteria. Prices - excessive. I understand 'overhead', 'operating costs' & 'profit'....but $15 for a large glass of wine? I suppose it's to be expected at a private club...and if I don't like the price, don't order the product. Fair enough...addressed and sorted :). Expensive.

Excellent sports club with an extremely long waiting list. There is a good variety of sports activities, children's play areas, and both cafeteria and table service food options.

Can't get in without membership and just there to watch badminton tournament.

I worked here for close to a year and can say it is a premier sport and social club, bar none. Should I one day be able to afford it, I'd like to become a member here.

Beautiful venue with great service, food and drinks

Best private club I have been to, great facilities, great restaurants, and great staff

Spectacular facility with everything you can ask for.

If you can afford the membership there are some nice facilities.

Walked by...impressive facility. Membership discriminates...on basis of money.

Felt a bit to fancy for me. But the food tasted decent and the staff were mediocre. Unless your one of their Golf Club members there is really no point to come here.

Great private club with variety of sports facilities provided.

I have been a member since 1958 and I currently sit on the Board, so I am biased. I can't give five stars because nothing is perfect, and there's always room for improvement. The Glencoe currently has an approximate seven year waiting list for membership and, along with the Calgary Winter Club, is one of the two more desirable private sports facilities in the Calgary region.

The Glencoe was established in 1931. It underwent a complete renovation in 1963 following a devastating fire the previous year. The Club continued to thrive through the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 90s with continuing improvements and renovations.

The Glencoe is currently undergoing a $22 million Dollar CDN renovation and expansion project which is expected to be completed by April, 2016. This will add approximately 52 additional parking stalls to the existing facility and provide an almost doubling of the fitness area space.

A new doubles squash court was opened in September, 2015 along with a completely renovated singles court, bringing the total number of singles courts to six. The Glencoe will host the Canadian doubles squash championship in the spring of 2016.

Other sports at the Glencoe Club include swimming, badminton, ice skating, tennis, bowling, curling and bridge.

The Glencoe Club has a wholly-owned affiliate, the Glencoe Golf and Country Club, located west of Calgary on Highway 8 (Glenmore Trail SW). This club was established in 1984 and features 45 holes, a clubhouse and a full driving range with practice and teaching facilities.

Private club with a great atmosphere and facilities. Helpful staff and nice people all around. Great selection of food to eat at different price points.

Fantastic private members club with great squash and exercise facilities

the haute couture of recreational sports in Calgary

Such a posh and historic establishment but food not their forte. Parking is still a problem. Nice staff through and location is good.
Changing room can have better architectural inputs. Avoid the ternager crowd time .

The Glencoe is a private club. If you've been there you know what it's like. If you haven't, my opinion on Google is not going to change your ability to get in.

Facilities are great and the restaurant items are very flavorful. Cafeteria style but food is delivered to your table after ordering at the counter. Really nice Pho Noodle bowl.

I was here as a guest for a friend's birthday. Amazing place. A lot of facilities, the pools look amazing.

It's a private club, I believe.

A private club in Calgary that offers a lot of wonderful amenities and leisure facilities were amazing. The badminton club is totally great where my children loved to compete yearly.

Me and my sisters all got food poisoning from eating the grilled cheese and fries. We are very sick
!

Private sports and social facility, good variety of activities

Private sports and social club, excellent, extensive facilities. Central location and the one of the most prestigious clubs in Calgary.

They have really stepped up their game over the decades

Having only been to the lounge, it's... Ok. I'm sure it's better in other places.

Attended as a guest and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Very nice, high end country club situation in central Calgary. The 10 lane bowling alley was empty, so our party got the entire place to ourselves. After a few games of 10 pin and 5 pin, we took our pitcher of beer to the sports bar downstairs. They had pool tables and sports, in an upscale environment. Finally, we checked out the curling sheets. The staff was very friendly. We didn't have to wait for service. I can't wait to go back.

What a great place to spend the day with the family

Great food, lots activities for kids and lots of places to work or study. 5 stars!

Awesome family friendly place with great food, drinks, waterslide and pool

This is one heck of a private club!! It has a bowling alley, squash courts, indoor swimming pool, outdoor swimming pool, ice rink, fine dining, pub dining, tennis courts... the food was exceptional and too. If you re a member of this club I can see why! Very glad that the Union Club of British Columbia is a reciprocal member here- had a fantastic time entertaining Calgary locals here. Great work Glencoe!

Lovely place, delicious food and great service and meeting rooms

Amazing food/facilities. unfortunately you have to be a member to enter

Historic place at amazing location. Private club for members only and their guests . Very friendly and courteous staff. We had lots of fun bowling there for several hours. Wonderful treat

The new pool is great!! Especially during this heat wave.
