🍴 Activity details
A recurring bi-weekly Thursday series of low-stakes social "episodes" in East London. This episode explores the familiar charm of the classic sitcom pub setting, using it as a backdrop for meaningful conversations, genuine connection, and the gradual building of familiarity and relationships over time.
Episode 3: The Pub Episode ☕
Every sitcom has that one place where the characters always seem to end up.
If How I Met Your Mother had MacLaren’s Pub, this is ours.
Welcome to Episode 3 of The Sitcom Series — where an everyday London pub becomes the next setting in our ongoing story.
Drop by after work, grab whatever you fancy, and settle in for another evening of familiar faces, funny stories, and the little moments that turn strangers into friends.
No networking. No awkward introductions. No pressure to stay the whole evening.
Just good conversations, new connections, and the kind of moments that make you look around and think: “Wait… this feels like a scene from a sitcom.”
Bring one story from your week that deserves its own episode. A chaotic Tube moment, a hilarious work mishap, a strange encounter, a dating disaster, or anything that made you think: “You couldn't write this.”
Stay for 20 minutes or stay for the whole evening. There’s no script and no pressure — just a chance to slowly become familiar faces in each other’s London stories, one conversation and one episode at a time.
Ticket cost: Free to attend. Everyone pays for their own pastry or drinks.
What's included: Warm conversation, and a relaxed evening with fellow Kindred members.
How to Sign Up - Your spot is confirmed once you RSVP to this invite. As seating is reserved, please only RSVP if you're able to attend, and kindly update your RSVP at least 24 hours before the event if your plans change.
