About

An intentional circle, by design.

Queen's Reserve Circle is the original chapter — and flagship — of The Reserve Circle, a private members' club founded on a simple idea: the right room, the right glass, and the right people make for evenings worth remembering.

Based at Queen's University, QRC brings together a curated membership of ambitious undergraduates around wine education, premium hospitality, and genuine social connection. We host private tastings, partner dinners, and seasonal socials in venues chosen for their character.
