What we’re about
Welcome to the London LGBTQ+ Dinner Club.
We are a friendly group that welcomes everyone regardless of where you are on the spectrum on sexuality or gender identity and expression.
The group was founded by Ian, who ran the successful London Gay Men's Dinner Club for eight years and the same warmth and welcome that that group was known for is now reaching out to all in the LGBTQ+ community.
We will meet once a month to go for dinner at a restaurant in London. We will meet for pre-dinner drinks first before heading to that month's chosen restaurant. There may be months where we have a social gathering at a pub/bar but generally we will be meeting to go out for food. Restaurant recommendations are always welcome.
The aim of the group is to meet and make new friends and be a welcoming, friendly and inclusive group of LGBTQ+ people.
The one rule for dinner is that we split the bill by how many attend. This avoids awkwardness and (from years of experience) the tricky task of figuring out individual amounts. If you do not agree with this, then please do not sign-up for events.
Keep an eye out for events as they are announced on Meetup. It will be great to welcome you and any friends you have to the group.

See all- A Meal at The Real Greek in SohoThe Real Greek, London£11.00
September's meal sees us return to the delicious food at The Real Greek in Soho. This is a restaurant that delivers both in quality and quantity and there is always a lovely atmosphere too.
Here's a few bits from their website.
The food we serve comes from the delicious and healthy diet of the Eastern Mediterranean, where people have a passion for food, family and life. The wonderful flavours and the variety found in Greek food can be traced back to ancient times – and on this diet Ancient Greeks, like Alexander the Great, conquered the world!
We have created dishes that are inspired by those epic journeys and benefit from the many different cultures and influences that now shape modern Greek cuisine. We believe our menu and the atmosphere in our restaurants bring back the memories and the spirit of Greece. Eating in Greece is never rushed. We take our time, engage in discussion and love to share our food with friends and family.It will be great to return to this firm favourite as we say farewell to the summer months and look ahead to autumn.
Our meal at The Real Greek is booked for 7.30pm. I have not been asked to provide pre-orders, but if you would like to look at the menu, you can do so using the link below.
The Real Greek MenuFor those who wish to meet for a pre-dinner drink, we will gather at Village on Wardour Street from 6pm. I have reserved an area for us which should be located in the rear bar area.
To reserve your place, please rsvp and pay the deposit. £10 goes towards your meal and the rest covers Meetup and PayPal costs. Note that Meetup also charge a small fee as they act as agents for the event.
After dinner, for those willing and wanting, we usually head to The Friendly Society on Wardour Street for 'one for the road' and a bit of a boogie (should you wish to).
This meal is limited to 16 - so it will be first come, first served. So do not delay - RSVP today!
