Supper Clubs
Immersive experiences to educate and enthral.
We’ve taken revellers down the rabbit hole to a gourmet wonderland, and aboard a boat for a seafood smorgasbord. We’ve transported them to a sultry Shanghai speakeasy, and into the riotous spirit of Mardi Gras. To catch our next flight of imagination, find out where we’re going next here.

You'll begin your experience with a welcome drink, a little ice-breaker to calm any first time dumpling maker's nerves. Then you'll be guided through the intricacies that go into dumplings, from mastering the fold to filling your pockets perfectly.
After your session, our chefs will provide you with our freshly made dumplings and Asian inspired cocktails to enjoy amongst your group whilst we pack up your fillings and dough for you to put your freshly learnt skills to the test at home for your loved ones.

The Wasted Supper
Waste not, want not. Our unique Wasted Supper concept turns unloved leftovers into new and beautiful creations, educating guests about how to make the most of food waste. Each person is invited to bring the forgotten items lurking in their fridge or pantry to our table, where our chefs transform it into a sharing feast in less than three hours. For our fully vegetarian supper, we conjured up vegetable tempura fritters, stale-bread gnocchi and cauliflower and kale dahl from their offerings. Each Wasted Supper also brings together some of the UK’s leading sustainable suppliers to champion their brands.

Chinese New Year
Our founders Lily and Emily lived in China together in the years before Dinner Ladies was born. This supper club is their tribute to the tradition of Chinese New Year, gathering guests around one table to share food and stories just like Chinese families around the world. For 2023, we celebrated the Water Rabbit – a year filled with hope, serenity and personal quests – with a vegetarian feast. Guests enjoyed a cleansing wonton soup with homemade ‘“spice up your life” Sichuan chilli oil, a play on China’s famous thousand year egg, and the ultimate tofu toast.

Game On
Game On brings the best of game season in the British countryside to London, with a menu championing nose-to-tail eating and minimal waste. The five-course feast takes guests through the woods and over the moors, with dishes including pheasant and chestnut ravioli and Kentucky-fried grouse and faggots with wild blackberries. As well as being transported to the countryside through the food and a mossy, verdant tablescape, guests are invited to celebrate game as a natural product with a lower carbon footprint than farmed meat.
