The city is filled with fascinating people from all over the world, but even in a place inhabited by millions, it’s easy to feel a little lonely. That’s why there are countless social events to choose from, including book clubs, running groups, language practice meetups, and more. Now, “The First Round” in London—another stranger meetup event connecting people—is bringing friendly folks together for a fun dinner, because, after all, food is the best way to bond.
The Secret Club is an exciting membership, giving access to exclusive perks, a 15% discount across all of Fever’s plan, including this one, and special content. We all love a good perk and members can enjoy giveaways, priority access, and unique discounts on highly sought-after events, restaurants, bars, exhibitions, and concerts year-round. It’s a community where locals share their insider tips, favourite spots, and hidden gems.

What is “The First Round”?
“The First Round” offers a simple, no-pressure way to meet new people without the hassle of swiping or scheduling. After filling out a brief questionnaire about your interests, the organisers will seat you with like-minded individuals for relaxed conversations over food and drinks. The seating plan is curated using an algorithm based on your answers, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere for everyone.
Who attends these dinners?
As social media continues to dominate our lives in this modern age, we are connected to more people more than ever. But are we really? This chance to dine with strangers is for anyone interested in communicating with people face to face. Real people with all of their quirks and endearing qualities, from students to longtime Londoners. People of every age, background and stripe come to experience the priceless joy of making new friends, expanding their social circle and bursting the bubble they’re trapped in.
