Same as before — 3:00 PM ‘til whenever you feel like heading out
🍷 What to Expect:
Great convos, new friends, tasty drinks, and plenty of food options. There’s something for everyone—including vegan and veggie bites. Come for a drink, a meal, or just to vibe and meet other rad childfree folks. No pressure. No prep. Just show up. 🥂✨
📓 Please Note:
The meetup is still free, but you’ll be responsible for anything you eat or drink. 💸
