Welcome Fellow Food Lovers

[Western Mass] EatUp! is a social gathering of interesting, fun-loving and friendly foodies of any age who would like to try out the local restaurants, in particular those establishments that have an innovative chef who is committed to using fresh, seasonal and local ingredients whenever possible.

We arrange with the owners of small eateries in the Pioneer Valley (Hampshire, Hampden and Franklin Counties and the greater Springfield area) and beyond, to host us for a casual dining experience, accommodating 20-45 people. We make special arrangements to keep the 4 course meals (hors d'oeuvres, appetizer/salad, entree, dessert) around $35.00 per person. (This amount also includes event registration fee, tax & gratuity. Any beverages are paid for individually at the time of the gathering.)

Please come join us once, or a dozen times to make new friends, deepen your acquaintances, find love, do business, garner a partner in crime or just have fun! (and a good meal, of course).

Also, please join us on Facebook:

We hope to meet you at one of our events soon!

What members are saying! (See all group reviews)

 Good conversation and food. Who could ask for more? 

 To be with good hearted and intelligent people...

    The BEST Indian food; and I have serious cravings for this place. On a totally selfish note, my soon-to-be hubby is the antithesis of foodie, and is not at all interested in changing his ways. Please please please?...

    restaurant ideas??
    Cafe Lebanon - Springfield Sitar - Springfield I know you'll probably need to vary the location due to the diverse geographical range of our members, but just thought I would throw those restaurants "out there".
