In a landscape crowded with large group meet-ups and tech-based platforms, DishCourse stands out by offering something uniquely different: high-quality, human-centric social experiences for small groups. At DishCourse, everything we do is personal, everything is human. Here’s what makes us truly unique.
Why choose an intimate event over a crowded meet-up?
Unlike large, impersonal gatherings, DishCourse focuses on small groups where genuine connections can flourish. Our dinner parties are designed for tables of six, creating an intimate setting perfect for meaningful conversations. We also offer a variety of other small group experiences, from floral arranging workshops to boat days, all designed to bring people together based on shared interests.

Know how to connect with your guests (and the entire DishCourse community) after your event
The connections you make at DishCourse events don’t end when the evening does. The day after your event, our hosts will start a group chat with all guests, making it easy to continue your newfound friendships. We also have a private Facebook group and Discord server where you can connect with the larger DishCourse community in Charlotte.
Handcrafted Touches
Every guest leaves a DishCourse event with a special gift made by me, the owner. Most often, this is a hand-poured, organic soy wax candle, but sometimes we mix it up to match the theme of the event. These handcrafted gifts are a small token of our appreciation and a reminder of the memorable connections made.

Local Partnerships for Unique Experiences
We partner with local restaurants and businesses in Charlotte, North Carolina to offer experiences you won't find anywhere else. Our dinner parties are hosted at local restaurants and each menu is custom-built for DishCourse. We also work with artists, creators, and teachers to offer special workshops and classes, so you can bond with new friends by learning something new. By supporting local, we not only enhance our events but also contribute to the community we love.
DishCourse is rooted in humanity

What truly sets DishCourse apart is our deep commitment to real, human experiences. While other companies might offer similar events, none match the personal touch, meticulous coordination, and heartfelt passion that we bring to every gathering. We’re not just about organizing events; we’re about creating spaces where real, lasting friendships can flourish.
