Hey, friend in Jakarta! Now that you joined JakFri... are you a member of Jakarta Writers yet? Want to see pictures of past events? Take a look here! And feel free to upload a few pictures you will take at the event 😊

JakFri and JakWri is the biggest, oldest, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta… and we invite you to join us to join us for this BURGER NIGHT in Lawless Menteng!

Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle. Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.

ABOUT THE EVENT

Let's have dinner together at Lawless Burger in Menteng. They have burgers, hotdogs, fries, beers, milkshakes.

Friday night is the time to chill. What better way than sitting together and making new friends in a friendly, informal setting? After burgers, we can walk and continue our evening at one of the many places nearby. We will choose together where to go depending on our mood.

Newcomers are particularly welcome! Come alone or with a friend or partner. There won't be a shared bill. Everyone will pay for what they consume.

We have organised this event many times before! You can see a few past events here:
