About us

City Social (aka Bunch - letsbunch.com) is different from other Meetup groups: you don’t have to wait for us to organize something. Members can create their own small hangouts around anything they want to do. πŸ™Œ

🎢 Going to a concert and want company? Create a Bunch. 🍽️ Want to grab dinner with 4–6 people? β˜• Get coffee? πŸ₯• Walk through the farmers market? 🍻 Check out a new bar? 🚢 Go for a walk? 🧠 Find people for trivia? Create a Bunch and invite other locals to join you.

More on instagram about our mission. We aim to build infrastructure for real-world connection and a big part of that is not putting human conneciton behind a pay wall : https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXxe-nTPJv6

We still organize larger community events too πŸŽ‰, but the idea is bigger than an event calendar: you should be able to find people to do things with whenever you want, without needing an official group host to organize it.

Bunch is TOTALLY FREE and built for getting together in small groups. πŸ‘‹ Create a hangout around something you want to do, or join one someone else has already created. You can invite people by age, gender, and interests, keep in touch with people you meet, and set up follow-up hangouts or one-on-ones.

❀️ Our goal is simple: make it easier for people to connect in real life and bring our communities closer together.

πŸ‘‰ Check out Bunch and start your own hangout. YOU MIGHT ALREADY BE INVITED!

    About Bunch
    πŸ’› We're a social hangout app for Jersey City, Hoboken, NYC and beyond. Our mission is simple: help people hang out again without putting friendship behind a price tag. We believe in kindness, inclusion, curiosity, and making everyone feel welcome. 😊 We have zero tolerance for bullying, ego, or putting others down. We've removed members to protect the community because we'd rather build a place where people lift each other up, make new friends, and feel like they belong. 🌎✨

    Description
    Our board games event has been going on for over 3 years πŸ™Œ πŸ˜€ . Check out our reel at: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DRDHzIakaMW

    Join us for our weekly dinner and board games at Zeppelin Hall. We gather to chat, socialize, spectate and, of course, play board games. With Zeppelin Hall you can simply order your food at the window and join our table for some games and conversation - no check splitting required.

    We use our app to check members in. Please use it to register. We built the app so that our members can not only stay connected after events without exchanging number, and further can invite members in our network to dinner, coffee, walk to get to know locals in the area. It's like gathering with friends, except you're meeting new people in the community. Read more at: LetsBunch.com

    We've been a laid back social group for over three years now! We're less into board games and more into socializing. Please, no strict-rulers here. We like to relax and have fun. If there are any disputes over the rules, which we prefer to be easily agreed upon by yourselves at the table, our host will have the final say.

    We expect everyone to conduct themselves in a kind and friendly manner.

    All ages welcome and all ages do come!

    Promo Details

    Members eligible to enter our lottery need to
    * RSVP on Bunch
    * Check-in on the app before 6:30pm

    The lottery is at 6:30pm

    Why the promo: Because we're a new app and because our board games have been going on for two years now πŸ˜€, a lot of our members just show up and don't RSVP. It is hard for our hosts at Zeppelin Hall to know what to prepare for and how many tables to hold, or even whether to cancel the event if enough people don't RSVP. Our hope is that our promos will help members RSVP and enjoy the evening that much more!

    3x Chance to win: Three members will be chosen to win a free entree.

    Reach out for any questions, but the app is the best place: LetsBunch.com. Remember to include your email so we can write you back if you're not logged in.

    All my best and see you at the next one!

    🧠 The Reflective Mind: Is the Nuclear Family Still the Best Foundation? πŸ‘πŸ’­

    Black Cat LES, 172 Rivington Street, New York, NY, US

    🧠 The Reflective Mind at Black Cat LES πŸˆβ€β¬›β˜•οΈ
    Must RSVP on Bunch for accuracy, communication and connection:
    https://bunch-api.onrender.com/api/share/hangout/0c246b8d-6d61-4a32-b841-e5185e542e31

    πŸ’› Who we are: We’re Bunch (letsbunch.com), an open network of locals interested in making real connections. We have all kinds of hangouts, but The Reflective Mind is about getting together for thoughtful, easygoing conversation and enjoying a healthy debate.

    The host’s most important job is making sure everyone is enjoying themselves and feels welcome in the conversation. Disagree. Challenge ideas. Ask difficult questions. But if you’re getting angry, it’s not worth it. Take a breath. If we’re not enjoying the conversation, forget about learning from each other.

    🧠 This week: Is the nuclear family still the best foundation for society?

    Marriage and the nuclear family have long been treated as the center of adult life. But as people marry later, live alone longer, have fewer children, and build different kinds of relationships and communities, is that model still serving us? What might take its place? Should anything?

    πŸˆβ€β¬› Why Black Cat? Black Cat LES was built as a cafΓ© for intellectual discussion. We’d love to help spark that spirit again by bringing people around a table to talk, question, disagree, laugh, and see where the conversation takes us.
    No expertise required. Curiosity is enough. Come alone, grab a coffee or drink, and join the table.

    πŸ“² MUST RSVP on Bunch to join:

    This is a Bunch slot, so there’s no designated Bunch host gathering everyone. Plan to arrive around 7:15 PM and use the Bunch chat to find each other, or ask an Art House host for help connecting with your Bunch.

    Most people on Bunch come on their own, so don't worry if you don't know anyone yet. Our motto is simple: every person welcomes every other person. ☺️

    We'll be creating Bunches for select Art House events, but there's lots more happening. See another show you want to attend? Create a Bunch and find people to go with you!

    πŸ’› What’s Bunch?

    Bunch is a completely free, grassroots social app built around a simple idea: anyone should be able to get people together.

    Any member can create a hangout around almost anything: theater, live music, art, coffee, brunch, a walk, drinks, dinner, trivia, or whatever else you feel like doing. Other members join, you meet in real life, and the community grows from there.

    Meet people at RENT, then join the dinners, walks, drinks, coffee runs, and other hangouts they create afterward. Or start your own and invite everyone along. πŸ’›

    Our mission is to make it easier for people to actually spend time together, without putting human connection behind a price tag.

    πŸ“² RSVP on Bunch to join the Bunch group
    and chat with everyone before the show.
