Hear when booking opens
We’ll let you know when you can book a dinner in Bolton. See the plan, choose your night and come as you are.
The table
A seat beats a swipe.
Apps taught everyone to judge people in a photo. A table works differently. Six people, some food, and a couple of hours are enough to find out who you actually get on with.
This is the shape of a KF.Social table. It is what Bolton gets when it opens.
Six people, none of whom have met. That is the whole format.
Table starters
Never open with "so, what do you do?"
Every table needs a first question. Draw a card and try it on your next dinner. Or on the colleague next to you right now.
Working today
Dinners come later. The app works now.
Communities
Join groups built around what you are into, from food and books to running and board games.
Chat that feels human
Group chats, voice notes and photos to keep the conversation going after the plates are cleared.
Not a dating app.
No swiping, no matches, no romance. KF.Social is for friendship: shared tables, communities and conversations with people in Bolton who want the same thing you do.

No. KF.Social is for making friends: shared dinners, interest communities and group chat. Guests can choose to confirm who they are with an ID check, and you see the tick if they have.
