Minimum Attendee Requirement

Why we require at least 20 attendees for a dinner club to run.

Written by Ana Rivera

To create the best possible experience, dinner clubs now require a minimum of 20 attendees before they can move forward.

Larger groups lead to:

  • Better personality matches

  • Stronger table dynamics

  • Better restaurant experiences

  • More successful afterparties

  • Higher attendee satisfaction overall

Running a dinner involves significant coordination behind the scenes โ€” including restaurant sourcing, reservations, seating optimization, customer support, and logistics management.

Smaller groups often lead to:

  • Limited matching quality

  • Fewer compatible tables

  • Lower-quality restaurant allocations

  • More cancellations and refund requests

Weโ€™ve found that the bigger the community, the better the experience is for everyone involved.

Our goal is always to create dinners people genuinely want to come back to โ€” not just fill seats.
