About this Event

When was the last time you did something completely spontaneous? Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun day out. That's right, you sign up, and we book the reservation. We know life can get busy. Don't forget to spend time making new friends with the same interests! Build your community with us while supporting locally owned businesses.

Each outing is held at a different location. These gatherings are not directly associated with the restaurants, but are simply based on a table reservation. The pin on the map is not the location but a placeholder Eventbrite gives for the city.

This micro-event is intended to be for 4-6 peoplemaximum. If the day you signed up for does not hit the minimum number of signups, please be open to joining us on another day with a fuller group. Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

Our feature on Fox 11 Los Angeles for our dinner meets.

Please see here for our coverage in Nashville Fox 17's Growing Nashville segment.

How does it work?

After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message. We'll stay in touch with you leading up to the day of the gathering.

*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases. A paid ticket simply makes you more committed to actually showing up.

*These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not singles gatherings.

*If you sign up the day of, there's a risk of already reach our maximum for the day, or not having enough interest to move forward with a table reservation. Simply email [email protected] to for info prior to signing up.

Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human.

If you have any more questions, please contact [email protected]!
