Hear when booking opens
We’ll let you know when you can book a dinner in New York. 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 New York 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.
Across the city

Communities

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 New York who want the same thing you do.
Make a local plan
More ways to connect in New York
Make a park walk a regular plan
NYRR Open Run offers free community runs and walks in neighborhood parks. Use the current park listings to find the meeting point and sign-up instructions. Walking and volunteering offer ways to take part without a race goal; check the route and role that fit you.
Try a class close to your routine
Shape Up NYC offers free fitness classes for adults and seniors across the five boroughs. Choose a specific dance, yoga or training session and check its joining instructions, age requirements, access details and cancellation notices before travelling.
Get involved in a community garden
GreenThumb explains how to contact a neighborhood garden and ask about membership or volunteering. Groups set their own joining process and responsibilities; some request fees with hardship arrangements. Check public hours, seasonal activity and the help needed rather than assuming a plot is available.
Good to know

Join New York’s founding dinner waitlist to hear when its first tables open. We’ll share the venue and date when booking is ready. Dinners are bookable in London today.
How do I get KF.Social to New York?
Get the app, choose New York in the dinner city selector, then explicitly join its dinner waitlist. Installing the app or changing your profile city does not join the waitlist. If installation loses the city, select it again in the app.
What can I use the app for in the meantime?
Meet and connect with people online on KF.Social. Explore shared interests and start a conversation while you wait for your city’s first dinners.
How will the dinners work when they start in New York?
We pick the restaurant, the night and the small group, matched by age, interests and the part of the city you are in. You book a seat and turn up. Nobody hosts, nobody picks the cuisine, and you see the plan before you commit.
Is KF.Social a dating app?
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.
