Eat with locals in London

London is known for its unique social dining scene. From new London secret supper clubs in hidden locations to once-in-a-lifetime pop-up dinners, there are so many cool things to do for foodies. If you're looking for somewhere amazing and unique to eat, local to you, then we've got the dinners, cooking classes and tours for you.

Experience London like a local!

Welcome to London, the capital of England where the pubs are busy, the music is incredible and the food scene is a collection of the best cuisines from around the world! From the hip night clubs in East London’s Hackney to the posh brunch spots of West London’s Notting Hill, the buzzing gastropubs with upcoming artists in Camberwell and Peckham of South London and the gorgeous wild parks of North London, and of course the Victorian houses, the Southbank walk along the Thames, Hyde Park, British Museums of Central London, it’s been named the best city in the world in 2023 for a reason! As they say, tired of London, tired of life.

As the most multicultural city in Europe, more than 250 nationalities can be found in London, and with so many languages spoken, it makes it easy for new visitors to feel welcome. And for foodies, it means a paradise of remarkable multicultural taste from all-eaters to vegetarians and all diets in between!

The best way to get a taste of all these cultures is by joining supper clubs. Hosted by home cooks and chefs to whom the cuisine is native, sharing stories of their ancestral recipes, while you’re at a large communal dinner meeting others. Social dining in London is the best way to get to know the city, as locals and tourists sit at the same dinner, brought together by the curiosity and/or love of cuisine served at the supper club, keen to learn more and share stories of their favourite spots in London.

The tasting menus served at London’s supper clubs are suitable for all diets, whether you’re a vegan or an eater of all. You don't want to miss booking a London supper club through Eatwith, to experience the city’s flavours at night.

As one of the major players in the capital's cuisine-loving community, we've got the perfect dining events and places for local Londoners to enjoy, which will totally change the way you experience a meal. From brunches to pop-up dinners and supper clubs, to cooking classes led by professional chefs and food tours that will show you the hidden side of London that only a few locals know about, we've got it all! Whether it is lunch or dinner, the flavour and ingredients of all the courses aim to be the particular highlight of your London experience.

What is a supper club?

Supper clubs in London offer an intimate, exciting, and off-the-map way of dining out, bringing strangers together to the same table through their shared tastes. 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. 

Supper clubs enable the multicultural London chefs to fully embrace their style and cuisines, not restricted by any rules of a head-chef at a restaurant. They are cooking from their heart to yours. This is what we promote here at Eatwith, social dining to bring people together in a world increasingly going socially cold. 

Eatwith is the first global community of local chefs and hosts, bringing people together around dining tables and food activities wherever they go! Top rated on TripAdvisor and loved by thousands of travellers and locals, we help our guests eat with locals, like a local.

From home cooks welcoming guests in their home to share the dishes and stories of their culture, to professional chefs presenting their tasting menus, we offer unforgettable, immersive culinary experiences.
