# Setting the Location, Date & Time for Your Dinner Club

---

## 📍 Location

Choose a **downtown district** with at least **7–10 moderately priced restaurants** and a **large bar** for the after party.

We’ll send **groups of six** to different restaurants — usually **1–3 tables per restaurant**, depending on your group size and restaurant availability.

After dinner, all tables from the same district will **converge at the after-party bar.**  
Typically, **around 50% of guests** continue on from dinner to the bar.  
We’ll give the bar a heads-up, but **we don’t negotiate group packages** or special pricing.

If you host dinner clubs in **multiple locations**, each one will have its **own after-party bar.** For example, if you host in both **Manhattan and Brooklyn**, there will be separate after parties in each location.

## 📆 Date

We currently support dinner clubs on **Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.**

*Fridays and Saturdays are NOT recommended* — reservations are harder to secure, bars are too busy, and guests often have personal plans.  
​

By hosting midweek, you’re also **supporting local restaurants during off-peak hours.**

## ⌚️ Time

* **Big cities:** 7:00 PM dinner → 9:00 PM after party
* **Smaller cities/towns:** 6:30 PM dinner → 8:00 PM after party

## 📣 When to announce

Most communities need **10–14 days** of promotion to fill their tables, though some have announced just **7 days prior** and still had a great turnout.
