It was not easy to join the club. A proposer and a seconder was required to join, as well a vote from membership. Women were not allowed to become members, although later, a ladies restaurant was added (although women could not enter via the front and entered via a separate entrance). Jews were also not welcome, although the club held some exceptions. Africans were not permitted.
