Dress Code and Cell Phone Policy

The Missouri Athletic Club is proud to be recognized as a Platinum Club of America, a distinction that reflects its long-standing commitment to excellence, tradition, and an exceptional member experience. The Club’s standards, including its dress and etiquette guidelines, are an essential part of preserving this distinction and the refined atmosphere members and guests have come to expect across all Club locations.

The Board of Governors and Club Management extend a warm welcome to all who visit the Missouri Athletic Club. In keeping with the values and traditions that define a Platinum Club of America, members and guests are respectfully asked to observe the House Rules, Dress Code, and Cell Phone Policy (“Policy”). These guidelines are designed to support an environment that is gracious, comfortable, and respectful for all—whether enjoying dining, social spaces, or the professional coworking environment at MAC Clayton.

MAC Clayton reflects these standards within a modern, combined dining and workspace setting, where attire is expected to remain polished and appropriate for both professional and social use.

Observing this Policy helps sustain the character of the Club and contributes to the quality and enjoyment of every aspect of Club life.

On occasion, members or guests may be asked to make a minor adjustment prior to accessing the Club’s public spaces. Courtesy and cooperation with fellow members and Club staff are appreciated, as they play an important role in upholding the standards and welcoming atmosphere that distinguish the Missouri Athletic Club.
