October Supper Club at the Caucus Club!

The Caucus Club serves up a slice of Detroit history.
 
The rich decor of the Caucus Club matches its rich history.

Les and Sam Gruber opened the London Chop House in 1938 in the basement of the Murphy Telegraph Building.  It was the top restaurant in Detroit and world-renowned.  Everyone who was anyone dined at the "Chopper".  The Gruber brothers opened the London Chop House North, directly across the street to handle the overflow of patrons, and the Caucus Club was born in 1952.  The sister restaurant to the London Chop House has always been dark and clubby.  Always busy at lunch.  Judges, lawyers, Ad-Exec's, Stockbrokers, Bankers and Downtowners know it as the place to make and celebrate a deal! 

The Caucus Club has had many celebrities cross its door.  The most famous would have to be Barbra Streisand who sang in the back room in 1961.  Brought here from New York, the Caucus Club was one of Streisand first paying jobs. She was young and inexperienced performer.  "Watching her was like watching the first brush strokes in a picture, she was creating herself."  Les Gruber.  Streisand left Detroit for an appearance on the Tonight Show with Jack Parr, and the rest is history!

October’s Supper Club will be held on Wednesday October 18th at 6:00PM.  The Caucus Club has created a menu for the set price of $30, which includes tax and gratuity.  Any additional items purchased will be billed upon consumption and kept on your own tab.  The Caucus Club is located at 150 W Congress in the heart of downtown Detroit.
