🙏 Guests

Can I bring a guest?

  • Absolutely. We allow members to bring guests and we treat them like members. We do ask that recurring guests consider membership, and ask that quantity of guests be kept to a reasonable amount (roughly 1-2 individuals).

Who counts as a guest?

  • Guests are defined as occasional visitors -- not regular colleagues, collaborators, or teammates. We ask that these guests get their own memberships.

Can a guest come without me or use my membership?

  • No. Guests must be accompanied by a member. Guests may not stay in the club after the member they arrived with leaves.

How often can I bring a guest?

  • If your guest is coming on a regular basis, we ask that they get their own membership.

How many guests can I bring?

  • Roughly 1-2 guests at a time is acceptable. If you’ve booked a meeting room, then you can bring the amount of guests the room seats.

🦄 Pets

Can I bring my dog?

  • Certified service animals are allowed in our spaces, but otherwise your dog must stay outdoors. That includes coming into the space to get a drink. We want to be as respectful as possible to other members with allergies and other issues.

Can I see my monthly invoices/ receipts?

How do I change my card on file?

Can I visit any Switchyards location?

What are the hours?

  • All locations are 24/7, 365… once we open our doors, they never close again.

Do any locations have meeting rooms, private desks, offices, etc.?

Do any of the locations have printers or fax machines?

What neighborhood/city are you launching next?

🔥 Merch

How do I get some of that sweet SY Merch?

  • Switchyards merch is a coveted good - be on the lookout for opportunities to secure yours! That said, each club comes stocked with free stuff like stickers, buttons, coasters, and more!

👀 Lost and Found

I found something left at the club. What do I do?

I left something at the club. What do I do?

  • If you've left something in the club, shoot us a note at hey@switchyards.com! We’ll take care of it. Include the phrase 'Lost and Found' in the subject or body of your email for the quickest support.

🦉 New Members

What am I supposed to do when I get to the club for the first time?

🍕 Food and Drink

Can I bring my lunch to the club?

  • We do not allow full meals inside the club. Snacks are totally cool, but bringing the proverbial “leftover fish” certainly isn’t and is something that we’d like to avoid.

Who roasts your coffee?

  • We have the best roasters in each city we're in roasting the highest quality coffee. For more about our coffee partners, check out our Coffee page here.

📞 Phone booths

How do the phone booths work?

  • All phone booths need to be reserved before using. Phone booths can quickly be booked at switchyards.com/rooms. We just ask that members be respectful by keeping calls within the booking as other members will be waiting.

  • You will receive a check-in reminder email 30 minutes before your reservation. You will have until 10 minutes after the booking starts to check in. If you do not do this, your room reservation will be canceled and can be rebooked by another member.

📰 Club Paper

What is this newspaper in the club?

  • Club Paper is a little tabloid thing for and by the members of Switchyards. Submit your stuff at switchyards.com/clubpaper. They're yours for the taking!

📈 Waitlist

I have a friend who is on the waitlist, how long before they're in the club?

  • Unfortunately we can’t give ETAs for when folks will get in, as things can change quickly! Numbers and places quickly become stale when folks are being brought into the club.

If I leave the club, do I have to get on the waitlist to get back in?

  • Yes. We don't make any exceptions here.

📸 Photo / Video Shoots

Can I film / shoot content for my business?

  • If you're taking photos on your phone/ camera or a quick video then sure! If you're looking to set up a camera, tripod, lights, or anything like that — Then no. This is so that we can ensure all members of the club have space to work and are not distracted by filming / photography shoots.
