Business is no longer conducted just in the boardroom. In fact, today, more and more takes place offsite, remotely and in informal environments. Imagine closing your next deal, entertaining your customers or simply conducting your next team meeting in a setting that is elegant, comfortable and filled with an endless array of business-centric amenities.
Enter Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club, in beautiful Bedminster, a venue that could change the way you do business. The Fiddler’s motto and mission is to “wow” its members and guests. Following the recent completion of a multimillion-dollar renovation, Fiddler’s is one of the finest venues of its kind in the country. “I often hear from our corporate members that Fiddler’s Elbow is an essential component of their business plans and strategies,” says General Manager Tom Hurley.
Corporate Membership at Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club offers endless opportunities for fine and casual dining, events, golf, tennis, fitness and more.
Meeting spaces are abundant and high-tech. And the staff is always high touch, accessible and creative. Corporate members experience unique ways to host meetings and special events such as off-sites and training sessions, or even board and staff meetings.
When it comes to feeding your guests, clients and staff, members feast on a delicious array of fresh farm and sea to table creations passionately prepared by one of the finest culinary teams anywhere, led by renowned Chef Michael Weisshaupt. Many deals have been closed over dinner at the Elbow Room Bar and Restaurant, where the wine list is both broad and deep, currently offering more than 550 different selections. These selections range from simple Pinot Grigio to 1982 first growth Bordeaux. You can even host events in their private wine cellar.
At Fiddler’s Elbow, corporate members enjoy a yearlong calendar of events and activities designed for client entertainment and the development of relationships. These include wine dinners, comedy shows, concerts, golf and tennis outings, networking lunches and dinners, and much more.
Many of the dinners focus on wines, such as the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Judgment at Paris made famous by the movie “Bottle Shock” and based on the book “The Judgment of Paris” by George Taber. The dinner included a presentation by Mr. Taber on his recollections of this historic wine event. One of the club’s premier events is the annual Tuscan Wine Dinner, featuring wines from the Tuscany region of Italy and unique culinary creations from wine steward Marco Nicoletti’s family recipes. This event draws 150 attendees annually. Of course, the Fourth of July Celebration and other holidays also present opportunities for combining business with pleasure.
Long known as a gathering place of movers and shakers, Fiddler’s Elbow also provides businesspeople the opportunity to network. Guests, clients, friends, family, and colleagues are always impressed by the club’s impeccable attention to every detail. Recent events have included a performance by Midtown Men with members of the original cast of Broadway’s “Jersey Boys,” a one-man show called “Defending the Caveman” and numerous themed dinners.
Open year-round and centrally located, Fiddler’s Elbow is easily accessible from major highways such as Interstate 78. If you prefer, you can fly in and land at the helipad or get chauffeured in the custom Mercedes Sprinter Van. Fiddler’s is proud to be a Distinguished Emerald Club of the World, as selected by Boardroom Magazine.
Says Membership Director Allison Garber, “For our corporate members, we are here to provide a door to building lasting business relationships, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.”
