Dinner with First Responders: Portland, Maine (Have Dinner on Us!)

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! This project is to host dinners in various cities to combat loneliness in the modern world while supporting locally owned businesses.

This is our first responders edition!

Our news segment on Fox 11 Los Angeles!

This micro-event is intended to be for 4-6 peoplemaximum. Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

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 night of the dinner. Expect a Final Details email the day of.

*Sign up one time, and you'll join our database to be invited to all dinners.

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.
