Beautiful garden. The reception service was very good. The bathrooms were clean.

We had a bridal shower here and it was wonderful. Jessica was lovely and very easy going for booking. Rob and the wait staff were attentive, kind and Rob helped us organize our schedule of events but checked everything with us first. The brunch was delicious with more food than we could eat and everyone loved the sundae bar. It’s also a beautiful space. My guests were so impressed. It was a great value too.

I just held my daughter’s baby shower at Essex Club. Everything was perfect from start to finish thanks to Jessica, Rob & the entire staff. Everyone was so friendly & helpful. The punch, food & dessert were all delicious. This venue is truly a hidden gem.

Recently attended a friend’s wedding here and it was good for our small gathering. Apart from the room where the wedding ceremony was held, it also had an area for cocktails and appetizers, as well as an area for dinner and dancing. The staff were friendly, and the food and drink were delicious. Wouldn’t recommend for larger groups because it’s a smaller venue, but for a smaller group it lacked nothing. We had a taco cart and a potato cart as appetizers in the cocktail room, but the staff told me there are 7-8 other choices for the hosts to choose from when planning the event.

My husband & I got married at the Essex Club on March 29, 2025. From the moment we stepped foot in the venue, we knew it was the place for us. Jessica, was incredible to work with, extremely attentive to tailoring our individual needs to our wedding reception and ensured a seamless planning process on the venue & vendor package front. Rob (maître d) & Jancy (bridal attendant) were hands down the best & most helpful the day of our wedding. The Essex Club staff & venue were a well oiled machine filled with team work to ensure smooth sailing throughout pre-cocktail hour pictures, cocktail hour, reception & after party. They were extremely responsive & accommodating to our family members, bridal party & guests. We truly feel this place is a hidden gem & do not have enough wonderful words to say about it. The food was delicious (confirmed by multiple guests), the drinks were flowing & the dance floor was rockin’ (Absolute DJ). Our photographer & cinematographer capture the magic of the day and venue, thanks Focus Studios. The entire staff at The Essex Club made sure my husband & I had that absolute best day of our lives & the we did. We will forever treasure the greatness of it all.

I cannot say enough good things about the Essex Club (formerly Brentwood Country Club). The Essex club is an extremely affordable option compared to most places on Long Island. Living in Suffolk County, this is one of the few venues around that give off ballroom/ country club vibes. I had a bit of sticker shock when first getting quotes from venues and started to re think the whole having a big wedding thing, and then I came across the Essex Club. They have a great package and they are a Lessing’s venue. Not only was I able to get a great package, but because my wedding was the second week of November, I was able to get winter pricing compared to fall. This allowed me to book a Saturday night wedding without needing an insane minimum. Jessica at Essex club is truly amazing, and makes your day flawless with her attention to detail. I had a minor mishap with a different vendor day of the wedding and Jessica called them herself and had them fix it within 20 minutes, no questions asked. Because they only do one wedding at a time, their main focus is you all day and you are able to come to the venue 2 hours prior to your cocktail hour ( so no need for another place to take pictures). The food was amazing, and we got so many compliments. We had a very intimate wedding of about 100 people and the 10 tables of 10 was honestly the perfect fit. We got so many compliments on our choice of venue. The Essex Club is truly a hidden gem with a staff that makes you feel like part of the family.
I have been the bilingual wedding officiant a few times at this venue. I am always welcomed back as if I were family. Highly recommend.

Everyone at the Essex Club was amazing We hosted our wedding here in mid-November. We received countless compliments on the delicious cuisine and the wonderful, welcoming service. The venue had an amazing atmosphere, and Jessica was responsive and answered all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, Jancey, the bridal attendant, and Maitre d' were both attentive, and did a wonderful job and excellent customer service. At Essex Club, we experienced the wedding of our dreams. If you are considering holding your wedding here, I heartily recommend it.

We cannot recommend this venue enough. Start to finish was such a great experience for us! We got many comments from guests about how delicious the food was and the staff was incredible. They were accommodating, helpful and kind. They truly were there to make sure we had the best day possible. The vendors included in their all inclusive package were excellent to work with as well. The day went smooth and was flawless and we truly can’t thank the Essex Club enough for making the best night of our lives possible! They set up and took down all of our decor which was HUGE, it’s not something the bride, groom or family wants to do after celebrating all night. Jessica was also fantastic- she answered all of my questions (believe me, I had a ton) and was so helpful during the planning process. I never had the “stressed bride” experience and it was definitely because of her help and expertise! She made sure I was prepared for everything at our final details meeting and was so helpful. We’re so sad that it’s over but happy to say that if we had to rewind and do it all over again, we wouldn’t regret choosing the Essex Club for a single second
