Hey locals 🍻
Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. That's right, you sign up, and we book the restaurant. We know life can get busy. Don't forget to spend time making new friends! Build your community with us while supporting locally owned businesses.
(Become a monthly subscriber via Patreon for community gatherings not listed on this calendar, for giveaways, and to connect with both local and global members!)
These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not dating gatherings. 🧍♂️ 🧍♀️
Our pages are set to $USD 💵
Each gathering is held at a different restaurant. These dinners are not directly associated with the bars or restaurants, but are simply based on a table reservation via Opentable or Resy or other reservation platforms. The pin 📍 on the map is not the location but a placeholder since each location changes week to week, so please do not go to the pin.
Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.
After you sign up, we go to work! We book tables AFTER knowing everyone’s food preferences based on our short questionnaire and getting a final headcount. We don’t share decided upon locations publicly as to not have unvetted people showing up.
