Entrepreneur, investor, The Shop Club Board Member and race car driver Andrew Hoang boasts how his favorite place to learn a new race track is at The Shop Club on the virtual reality driving simulator. "There's nowhere else I go to get a feel for a new track, get a good meal, and be surrounded by like-minded individuals. The Shop Club's community is like nothing else and it's awesome to see membership flourish where different backgrounds come together in one place.  It's my go-to for all things car-related, entertainment, and business meetings."

The Shop Club's newest home is conveniently located at 9100 John W Carpenter Freeway off of 183 near Love Field. While most of the venue is for members only, our in-house restaurant will be open to the public, with a viewing area for people to get a taste of the merchandise. Serving brunch, lunch, dinner and cocktails daily from 11am to 10pm, the restaurant will feature classic comfort food with great local ingredients. Diners will be treated to an ever-changing car show as the restaurant seating looks out over the vehicle storage members' area. 

"Watching The Shop Club grow from an idea into a truly customer centric experience has been really rewarding.  By tapping into their members' love of cars, they have been able to drive deep engagement, which is a key element for any successful business," said Jamie Nordstrom, The Shop Club Board Member and Nordstrom Executive.
