The Lizzie is a genteel club for Anglophiles; it's great for having tea with retired English professors. (It's great for having tea with anyone.) It has a significant collection of Shakespeariana. It's not hard to join if you want to, although it's not quite an open-door policy; you have to be sponsored and accepted.
The other clubs you mention probably haven't existed in over 100 years.
Yale doesn't have "dining clubs" like Princeton's eating clubs. The various senior societies serve their members one or two dinners a week as part of their regular meetings (or, most often, the members serve each other dinner). Mory's was a restaurant organized as a club that Yale students could join cheaply. It was an OK place to take relatives, hold meetings, or to listen to the Wiffenpoofs sing while sharing outrageous "cups" of punch. But I gather it has closed.
