What is a supper club?
It’s the 21st century. Gone are the days of just ‘dining out’. If you’re bored of being waited on and served expensive drinks, you need to jump on the trend of attending supper clubs in London.
A hybrid between a dinner party and a restaurant, often taking place in a chef’s home, or cafes closed for the evenings. Supper clubs foster cultural exchange, closing the distance between a chef and their guests as everyone sits together at dinner.
They can take place in pop-up locations around a city, or in the chef’s own home. Sometimes they have a theme, usually revolving around the culture you’re eating. Regardless, it’s always a fun, chatty, and chilled-out evening.
These intimate dining experiences offer an exciting new way to dine out. And although most supper clubs are for insiders only, often well hidden, raved about, and widely rumored. Here at Eatwith, we make London’s supper clubs accessible.
Whether you love to meet new people or even if you’re not comfortable making conversation with strangers, at supper clubs the food is the centerpiece of the night. So you’ll not have too much trouble finding something to chat about.
That’s the charm of supper clubs. Many of the people you’re sitting around with are solo diners, who booked independently of one another. Part of the fun of attending a supper club is not knowing who you’re going to meet, and sometimes what’s on the menu. The menus are often seasonal and dependent on what the local butcher, farmer, or fishmonger bought on the day.
Supper clubs offer a unique dining experience that is both intimate and social. If you’re looking for something different from the traditional restaurant experience, then a supper club is worth considering.
Through Eatwith, you have access to all the best supper clubs in London. Our ethos: social dining to bring people together in a world increasingly going socially cold.

South London Supper Clubs
Louisiana Crawfish Boil with Crayfish Bob
A crawfish boil (alternatively crayfish or crawdad) is a traditional food event originating in Louisiana, the deep South. This is why it only makes sense that this supper club is in South London’s Bermondsey. Rooted in Southern and Cajun culture, these boils are a gathering of friends and family to celebrate and enjoy delicious food.
Feel bad for the crawfish? Don’t. The crawfish caught by Crayfish Bob at this feast is the invasive American Signal Crayfish that threaten the British native crayfish and other life. Bob is doing an amazing job in ridding our waters of this pesky interloper. So you can munch through all the crayfish you like, safe in the knowledge you’re helping the environment!
Also, there’s live music to get your feet tapping from Crawdaddy’s Blues Band.
