City Club of High Point

The String & Splinter, High Point’s City Club, is dedicated to providing its members with fine dining, extraordinary service and incomparable Southern hospitality.

From the basement of the Sheraton Hotel where it all began in 1957, to its current two-story location in Market Square, the String & Splinter has consistently offered a first class experience in warm and gracious surroundings.

Guests can feel at home in the String’s formal main dining room, informal mahogany bar, variety of intimate private dining rooms or courtyard patio under the stars.

Originally founded by members of High Point’s furniture and hosiery industries, the String & Splinter maintains the essence of its local historic roots, yet strives to evolve to meet the changing needs of its members. Member satisfaction continues to be the String & Splinter’s
first priority.

Our ongoing Capital Campaign has provided the funds for a full refurbishing of our club, as well as an Endowment Fund to ensure the sustainability of our organization in the future.  We are grateful for all the individuals and corporations who were gracious in their donations.
