Club House, Bar & Buttery
All our food is freshly cooked on site and locally sourced, wherever possible. We offer both à la carte dining and informal options in our restaurant, the Buttery. When this is closed, you can order from resident Chef Dan's bar menu, and choose a table in the bar or eat outside on the lawn, where you can enjoy spectacular views across the Itchenor channel to the South Downs.
We have a comprehensive social program that runs throughout the year including parties, lectures, winter bridge, wine tastings, jazz evenings and film nights to name a few. We pride ourselves on being welcoming and being a club for our Members to enjoy.
We are pleased to announce we have a new wine supplier! Portal, Dingwall and Norris are a local wine merchant supplying clubs across the South Coast. Not only are they supplying wines to the Club they are also offering our Members 10% off in their shop in Emsworth when shown an ISC Members Card! Make the most of this fantastic partnership.
Please find below the opening times for the Clubhouse, Bar and Buttery during our various seasons:
The Clubhouse is open for self-service teas and coffees from 9am-5pm every day in Early, Peak & Late Season and Monday to Friday in Winter Season - please see below for additional bar and kitchen opening hours, just complete an honesty slip with your full name, what you have taken and pop it into the Honesty Box and we will charge it to your account. If you are not previously known to the Club, please include your email address on the Honesty Slip.
Timings may change during events. During sailing events the Club will normally open at 0800
The House Manager has the authority to close the Clubhouse early if no Members are present and in their opinion the likelihood of any visiting is low
