The Eatwith community is made up of hosts from over 130+ countries who all share the same value: spreading their passion for food and entertainment. From homecooks to Michelin-trained chefs, Eatwith hosts welcome guests in their home and exclusive venues of their choice.

From dinner parties and cooking classes, to food tours and wine tastings, you can host anything that allows meaningful connections over drinks and food. However, your experience must take place during one singular day. Find some more ideas of what you can host here.

As an Eatwith host, you will be able to meet people from across the world, make new connections and earn money sharing your passion for food!

Apply to become an Eatwith host and connect to a community of travelers and locals from around the world.

What experience would you like to create? Within the host application you'll be asked to tell us about the experience and upload photos of you as a host, the venue and your food.

We recommend that you host a demo event to take high quality pictures that you can then add to your experience. Showing smiling people enjoying the food, wine, cooking etc, is important for making a popular experience! Inspire guests with photos of other guests, show off the space you will be hosting from, the food, the table, and of course, you!

Here you’ll describe what you plan to offer your Eatwith guests. Depending on the information and detail provided in your description, our Community Team will decide whether to approve your application straight away or if there are things missing that you'll need to add (e.g. photos, information about the experience etc.)

The application consists of two parts:

Once your application is approved, you will then be able to complete the drafted experience.

Depending on the volume of applications, your application will be reviewed within a maximum of 14 business days.

Your Community Manager will be in touch to let you know if there are any missing details before approving your Eatwith host application.

You have now received an email notification from Eatwith that your experience has been approved. Hoorah! From now the Eatwith team will not review your experience again, unless you contact us (we’re always happy to help).

The next step will be to complete your drafted experience which you can find in your host dashboard. Create a title, adding more detail to your description, fill out your menu, set your payment preferences and manage your availability through your host calendar.

When creating an Eatwith experience, it is important to remember that guests will book depending on their impression of your experience page – make yourself stand out!

It’s my first experience, how much should I charge?

For your first Eatwith experience, we recommend that hosts price their initial events on the lower end. Don’t worry this is just an introductory rate, as you collect more reviews.

Does Eatwith take a cut from my earnings?

No. Eatwith includes a 30% service fee which is paid by the guest upon booking. This is added to the amount you indicate you will charge for the experience. For example, if you have entered $20 as the price for your experience, when a guest books, they will pay $26 ($20 + $6 (30% of 20)).

The most successful Eatwith hosts are entrepreneurs, they build their brand with the help of our platform. The Eatwith community team can provide guidance and the tools to grow your own business.
