I go to a clubhouse, and really enjoy it. Just make sure what you're going to really is a clubhouse, and not just a drop in centre.
In my clubhouse, during the day, you're expected to be volunteering doing something to help keeep the place running, and then in the evenings and weekends their are social activities. The volunteering requirement means there's kind of a baseline for cognitive functioning and everyone's pretty motivated.
Drop-in's by contrast anyone can go to and there are few or any expectations of participants. I find they tend to populated by a group with lower cognitive function, motivation then at the clubhouse.
