Would you dine at a table shared with strangers?
Communal dining is gaining momentum

Communal dining is gaining momentum both in the US and Australia, with more and more venues offering shared tables where strangers come together to enjoy delicious meals and, perhaps, engaging conversation. While you may not be sharing food, drink, or the bill, the experience itself creates a sense of community.
In Sydney, venues like Kitchen by Mike, and Melbourne's Big Esso, are embracing the trend. It’s also popping up at culinary events like Sydney’s Open For Lunch and Melbourne’s World’s Longest Lunch, where the power of food brings people together.
Could this be your next dining experience?
