Cocktails + Convo: Amsterdam | A Night Out with New Friends

Hey locals 🍻

Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. That's right, you sign up, and we book the restaurant. We know life can get busy. Don't forget to spend time making new friends! Build your community with us while supporting locally owned businesses.

(Become a monthly subscriber via Patreon for community gatherings not listed on this calendar, for giveaways, and to connect with both local and global members!)

These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not dating gatherings. 🧍‍♂️ 🧍‍♀️

Our pages are set to $USD 💵

Each gathering is held at a different restaurant. These dinners are not directly associated with the bars or restaurants, but are simply based on a table reservation via Opentable or Resy or other reservation platforms. The pin 📍 on the map is not the location but a placeholder since each location changes week to week, so please do not go to the pin.

Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

After you sign up, we go to work! We book tables AFTER knowing everyone’s food preferences based on our short questionnaire and getting a final headcount. We don’t share decided upon locations publicly as to not have unvetted people showing up.

How does it work?🎟️

-You'll see multiple days listed on the calendar. That does not mean each day has an event planned. A date on the calendar is simply an option, and once you sign up, we get to work! But that may not mean others have signed up for that date. When you register for a date, we can build a night around your availability, however, if others are not available that day then we can transfer you to another date. Gatheringscurated for full time membersarenotlimited to what's shown on Eventbrite's calendar.

-After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message + questionnaire regarding age, interests/hobbies, and favorite foods. This guides us to where we will secure a table reservation (if you like Italian food and dislike Mexican food, for example, we’ll do our best to honor that). We'll stay in touch with you leading up to the night of the dinner. Expect a Final Details email the day of.

-Please try your best to register weeks in advance, if possible.

*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases. A paid ticket simply makes you more committed to actually showing up, supports our team's endeavors, and contributes toThe Comeunity Project (see below for info).

*If you sign up the day of, there's a risk of already reaching our maximum attendees for the night, or not having enough interest to move forward with a table reservation. Simply email ermantourageimpact@gmail.com for info prior to signing up if you'd like.

Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human. 🤖

If you have any more questions, please contact ermantourageimpact@gmail.com!
