The Schvitz Social Club est. 1927

Finding the Schvitz it is half the battle. The business has no address and is in a part of town most folks would rather avoid — near Kinsman and East 116th. Guests begin arriving in the afternoon, parking fancy cars in a gated, guarded lot nearby. Not only is the building located down a dead-end street, the nondescript fortress has not so much as a sign.

Check in at the front desk, track down an empty locker, then unload your gear and disrobe. This marks the last time you will see your pants until it's time to leave. From here on out, the attire is strictly towels, bedsheets, or robustly au naturel.

    "An experience like no other! Go back in time to ancient bathhouses where you eat, drink, soak up some steam then immediately dive into an ice cold pool."

    "This is the greatest place on earth. Don’t come alone. Don’t be weird. Just Schvitz, eat, drink, and smoke. It’s where men can be men."

    "I went to The Schvitz for a private event. It was an outstanding experience. The history alone makes this a place to at least visit once. I plan on returning for all future private events including females."
