Club and bar scene location
The “club” where George Segal meets the client for lunch and proceeds to get drunk and offensive was the Society of Illustrators at 128 East 63rd Street in Manhattan. The bad news was that the movie company didn't care to employ the actual waitstaff (predominantly Africa-Americans) and brought in there own actors (predominantly Caucasians). This was foolish since the staff, particularly the bartenders, were much loved by the membership and were very well-known throughout the industry. The good news was that the rental fee helped pay for a renovation to the Society's galleries afterwards.
