This group is for all the DC-region wine lovers out there. We'll be organizing weekly wine tastings, and tours of Virginia's wine country. If you want to learn more about wine, discover great local vintages, and meet new people, sign up for this group today and join one of our meetups!

This is a group for BBQ lovers in the DMV area. I know DC isn't known for great BBQ, but I'd love to explore all the various regional options in the area. I am a Texan with several grills and a smoker, but would like to check out the various BBQ joints in the greater DC area with other afficianodos. Texas, North Carolina, Kansas City, international, and all other styles are all on the table for exploration. I envision checking out at least one new joint each month.

Slow Food is a non-profit, eco-gastronomic member-supported organization that was founded in 1989 to counteract fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food traditions and people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes and how our food choices affect the rest of the world. To do that, Slow Food brings together pleasure and responsibility, and makes them inseparable.

Do you like food? Do you like making new friends? Then join us at Fresh Friends and Food where we explore a new local (Washington, DC) restaurant with amazing food each week. Every Friday, Fresh Friends and Food makes a group reservation for ten people at a new restaurant (all metro accessible!). The food and alcohol bills are tallied up separately. The food bill is split evenly 10 ways and the alcohol bill is split evenly between everyone who drank. No muss, no fuss. So join us next Friday for …

This is a new group for couples who enjoy wine and food and are interested in making new friends. We plan on meeting at least once a month in different people's homes. We are in our mid-40's but couples of all ages are welcome. We live in Gaithersburg, but are open to members from other locations in Montgomery County.

Perk up your cooking skills and socialize with other cooking challenged people. Chef Scott Sunshine will help you expand you food horizons and have a great time meeting new people

Loving wine is a passion that is quickly spreading, faster than a bush fire in the arid land of the Aussie down under. To share wine is one of the greatest joys in life, right next to the joy of cooking, and sharing the spoils while dining with friends and family. This casual group will be driven by tasting wine, food pairings, enjoying entertaining banter, and listening to guest speakers as they bestow upon us the essence of the wine world as they know it. All are welcome. Couples, single …

This group is for wine and food lovers in Virginia and around We will post some events and invite you to some tastings Join us

I love food. Cooking it, eating it, talking about it, reading about it, watching shows about it. But I’ve had trouble finding people around my age in this city who like to make this a part of their daily life AND are looking for friends that are interested in the same. This is a group for those who want to explore all forms of food the DC area has to offer (restaurants, specialty stores, etc.), cook and bake for others, and meet new people in their 20s and early 30s who want to do the same. We c …

Meetup meets Groupon, but better. What’s better then great food at nice restaurants? How about enjoying it while meeting new people . What’s even better then that? How about saving 30% to 50% at the restaurants while doing all this. This group is first and foremost about discovering new restaurants and food, meeting new friends, and enjoying an evening in a fun and casual way. But why not also save money while doing it. We take the best of Meetup and married with the deal phenomenon but with one …

We love good food and drink. We also love to try new restaurants in and around our Nation's capital and experience different cuisine. However, what makes a good meal a memorable experience is to share it with good company. TABLE FOR 4 is a chance for good friends, new acquaintances, and perfect strangers to get together and enjoy a good meal and even better conversation.

Share your passion for discovering new cooking techniques & kitchen chemistry, creating and, of course, EATING healthy gourmet meals with other serious foodies. Let's take turns hosting events so we may also exchange ideas for new gadgets, prep secrets, and other how- to tricks, etc. We can learn from each other while creating unique and delicious experiences. I personally enjoy creating FAST & HEALTHY gourmet foods that my feathered, scaled, and furry family members may share ;)). Join me in ma …

“Let's get together for some outside deck or rooftop dinner parties, backyard BBQs, picnics, garden parties or relaxing around the living room fireplace sharing in organic fare with good people and even better conversation; creating small group Real Food socializing that will spontaneously spread like wildfire to other communities locally.  If you care about the source of our food and wish to learn more; and if you believe A-list music, food and fun bring people together; join the GMO Free DC co …

This is a group for single folks who love food. If you're a foodie who loves to attend the many exciting culinary events in town, suggest the perfect restaurant for friends, or get creative in the kitchen, then join us! We'll check out new restaurants, attend food related events, host recipe swaps, and embark on other culinary adventures. Some dinners may be age specific and gender balanced but most events will be open to all.

This is a group dedicated to all things pizza, from its history, to cooking, to sampling some of the best pies in the local area and beyond. It is also a support group for those with a compulsion towards the greatest food ever tossed. Discussion of fast food and frozen pizza is allowed but not necessarily eaten. No, we are focused on pizza as art with the motto that if tastes good, it is good. An overriding obsession is to find a really good New York style pizza in the DC area while sampling all …

Let's enjoy all things animal friendly! We will be having vegan potlucks at members homes, food demonstrations, picnics and attend cruelty free events. For vegans, vegetarians, or vegan-friendly.

We just really like airports, and we wish we had an excuse to hang out in them when we weren't flying.

This group is for people who would rather entertain in their own home than go out to a restaurant for fun.  If you don't have the room for entertaining then that's ok but you need to be willing to contribute food and drink on a regular basis when other members hold events in their homes.  The idea is for someone to host a get together (dinner party, wine tasting, movie night, barbecue, whatever) and determine a "theme". The host(ess) generally  provides the main dish and the others bring theme o …

Since its inception in 2007, Good Eats and Meets has been a gathering place for people who love food, and love to socialize.  The group spread from Charlotte, NC to Columbia, SC, Atlanta, GA, and now, Washington DC.  Whether you are new to the area or a lifelong resident, Good Eats & Meets is for fun-spirited people that are looking to try something new - be it a new type of wine, a new cuisine, or a new social activity.  We explore the local 'Best of" lists, sniff out the hidden neighborhood ge …

This is both a social and working group for those who want to sample and explore the DC area while letting loose our creative juices.

It's easy to halve the potato where there's love. The whole idea behind my supper club was to have “family style” dinners which means that each participant is treated as family. I want to create an atmosphere where people feel comfortable, enjoy dinner conversation and a good meal. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s hard for people to slow down, sit down and enjoy dinner. This is my attempt to bring this tradition back – at least in my home. I miss having people to eat with, I believe strongly t …

Do you love brunch but hate getting up early in the morning? Do you live in DC or are you willing to come into DC for brunch? Do you want to meet new people and expand your social circle, while eating the best meal of the day? Do you promise that if you RSVP yes you will show up? If so, this group is for you! I will schedule brunches as often as interest allows. Since it's hard to seat large groups, I'll keep the brunches to 8-10 people max, unless we find places that can easily seat or take res …

Whether you are a California native, or just lived there for a while, this is your group! Make friends with others who know that 'On The Border' isn't real Mexican food, and that a 3.5 earthquake isn't anything to flip out over. :) Meetups will mostly be held around Northern Virginia (Arlington, Alexandria, Falls Church, Fairfax, Tyson's, Reston) and DC, but of course we welcome members from Maryland as well! Our members are mostly in their late 20s, 30s and early 40s, love happy hours, dining …
