About this Event
Good food. New friends. Nothing else on the agenda.
Our Supper Club heads south of the river to Minnow in Clapham.
Three courses, a welcome drink and a long table of around 20 gay men who’ve all come for the same reason: to meet someone new and leave with a friend.
Lots of our guests come solo, so we’ll get everyone settled and chatting from the start. No awkward networking, no pressure to know anyone beforehand. Just a long dinner, lovely people and hopefully a few new friendships by the end of the night.

Send to a friendMost of our guys showed up solo too
It's the most common worry we hear. Here's how we make sure first-timers leave feeling like they belong.
You won't be the only solo guy
More than 60% of attendees come alone. The room is built for it.
We greet you at the door
Tell us it's your first time and we'll introduce you to people right away.
The activity does the work
You don't have to make small talk from cold.
Leave when you want
Stay for the social or head home early. Both are normal.

Finally a gay event where I felt seen
I'm 47 and most gay events make me feel ancient. This one had every type of guy — single, coupled, all ages.
— Marcus · Comedy night, JuneMy first gay event ever
Was so nervous to come alone. Within 10 minutes someone introduced themselves at the bar.
— Theo · Comedy night, JuneWorth every penny (which is barely any)
£10 for a line-up that would cost £40 anywhere else, plus a drink and a gift bag.
