THE THURSDAY TABLE
THE THURSDAY TABLE
Dinner with people you haven’t met yet.
Every other Thursday at 20:00 at Jardinet d’Aribau.
Sometimes the hardest part of meeting new people in Barcelona is simply finding a reason to sit down together.
The Thursday Table makes that part easy.
You book your seat, come to dinner, and join a small table of 5-8 people who also decided they wanted to do something different with their Thursday night.
No networking. No forced introductions. No need to arrive with someone you already know.
Just dinner, a small group, and enough around the table to get the conversation started.
How the night works
Arrive at 20:00 and we’ll show you to the table.
Everyone is coming into the evening with the same idea: have dinner, talk to some new people and see where the night goes.
There’ll be Dinner Society conversation cards and easy prompts on the table to help get things moving. They’re there when you want them, not because the whole evening is going to be structured around games.
Then you eat, talk, order another drink if you feel like it, and hopefully leave knowing a few more people in Barcelona than when you arrived.
And because it happens every other Thursday, the table will be different every time.
Coming alone?
That’s completely normal here.
You don’t need to convince a friend to join before you can make a plan.
In fact, this is designed to make showing up alone feel easy. Nobody is walking into an established friend group. Everyone has booked a seat at the same table.
Of course, you can come with someone too.
What’s included
Your €20 ticket includes:
2 baos (Pulled pork or vegetarian)
1 soft drink (wine, beer)
Your seat at The Thursday Table
Conversation cards and table prompts to make getting started easier
Additional food and drinks can be ordered directly from the venue.
Who will be at the table?
A mix of internationals and locals living in Barcelona.
Some people have just arrived in the city. Others have been here for years and simply want to meet people outside the groups they already know.
Different countries, different jobs, different reasons for coming.
The common point is pretty simple: everyone chose to spend their Thursday having dinner with people they hadn’t met yet.
The evening is in English, although you’ll probably hear a few other languages around the table too.
Why every Thursday?
Because you shouldn’t have to wait for a big event once a month to make a new plan.
The Thursday Table happens every other Thursday at 20:00.
Can’t make this one? Come next week.
Liked the last one? Come again. It won’t be the same table twice.

One last thing
This works best when people come genuinely open to talking to others.
You don’t need to be extroverted. You don’t need to be brilliant at small talk. And you definitely don’t need to perform your way around the table.
Just come willing to say hello.
See you at the table.
