About this Event

Tired of the four walls of your home office? Swap the laptop screen for the social scene.

Being a freelancer, business owner, or remote worker in East London has its perks, but the 9-to-5 can get pretty lonely when you’re working from home. If the only "colleague" you’ve spoken to today is your cat or the barista, it’s time to reconnect.

Join Remotely Social at The Black Eel in Dalston for an evening specifically designed for the WFH community. We are taking over the exclusive Games Room for a night of low-pressure networking, high-energy gaming, and genuine local connection. Whether you’re looking to find a new collaboration partner, share tips on scaling your business, or simply want to chat with someone who understands the PTSD of the Slack notification, this is the place to be.


Why Join the Remotely Social Community?

Our events aren't about awkward elevator pitches or forced business cards. This is a casual evening to meet like minded people in your local area. Our games night takes the pressure off introductions and let friendships form naturally over a bit of friendly competition.


Your Ticket Includes:
  • ✨ Unlimited Games: Full access to interactive darts, shuffleboard, and foosball all evening. No quarters needed, no waiting in line, just pure play.
  • ✨ The First Round is On Us: Your first beer, wine, or soft drink is included in your ticket price to help kick off the night.
  • ✨ Curated Connections: Meet a fun and outgoing group of East London freelancers, digital nomads, and entrepreneurs who live and work right in your neighbourhood.
  • ✨ Zero-Pressure Atmosphere: Our After WFH Drinks sessions are famous for being relaxed and welcoming.

The Venue: The Black Eel, Dalston

Located in the heart of E8, The Black Eel is one of Dalston’s most iconic spots. We’ll be tucked away in the Games Room, providing the perfect backdrop for a midweek social reset.
