Dine side by side with other solo diners — every Thursday in Toronto (#dine)

# Dine side by side with other solo diners. **Every Thursday. Everyone comes on their own.** We find and hold the city's most social seats for solo diners — you reserve yours and show up. ## The seats do the introductions. * **Conversation starts itself** You sit down with a hello, and talk starts on its own — side by side, there's no face-to-face interview, nobody performs, nobody's on a date. Counter seats have worked this way forever. * **The numbers agree** Nine in ten Gen Z diners say they enjoy dining alongside strangers, and one in three has made a real friend that way. People want an experience as much as a meal — and the city's restaurants have quietly had the perfect seats for it all along. We make them accessible: one held seat, every Thursday. Dinner can be a full meal or just a drink. The company costs nothing. * **You're part of the room** Alone at a table for one, you watch the room. Seated side by side, you *are* the room — a bartender pouring or a kitchen at work in front of you, good company beside you. That's the whole difference. ## How it works 1. Reserve a seat One tap, and we show you this Thursday's spot. A few details hold your seat. 2. You're expected Reminders arrive on WhatsApp before dinner. Walk in, show your reservation at the door, take your seat. 3. The counter does the rest Good food, side-by-side seats, and conversation that happens effortlessly. ## Nothing about Thursday is random. Every spot on our list is somewhere we'd happily spend an evening ourselves. We look for rooms where conversation already exists — lively counters, chefs at work, bartenders who know the city, places where coming on your own has always felt natural. Whether it's another #dine guest, the person beside you, or a conversation that starts on its own, you're part of the room from the moment you sit down. ## Good to know * ✓ Not dating, not networking — just good company * ✓ You only pay for what you order * ✓ Full dinner or just a drink — order what suits you * ✓ English-speaking company * ✓ Free to cancel until 4 hours before your reservation Coming on your own shouldn't mean being on your own — and the best seat in the house isn't always a table. Sometimes it's front row at the counter. **IMPORTANT** Seat confirmations happen through #dine: https://www.hashtagdine.com/

🍁 The Fall Colours of Brickworks (Thanksgiving Walk) 🍂

🍁 **The Fall Colours of Brickworks (Thanksgiving Walk)** 🍂 Celebrate Thanksgiving with a scenic fall walk through Toronto’s ravines as we make our way to **Evergreen Brick Works**. Along the way, enjoy the crisp autumn air, brilliant fall colours, and a peaceful escape from the city. We’ll spend about **30 minutes exploring the Brick Works**, taking in its history, trails, and unique setting before heading back through **Mount Pleasant Cemetery** — one of Toronto’s largest and oldest cemeteries, with plenty of history and beautiful seasonal scenery. For those who’d like to keep the day going, we’ll finish with a cozy **Thanksgiving lunch at Swiss Chalet**. Their seasonal special is expected to be around **$18.29 plus tax and tip** and includes stuffing, cranberry sauce, your choice of side, a roll, and a slice of pie — a pretty good way to finish a Thanksgiving walk! 🦃🥧 📱 Don't forget to join our **WhatsApp Group – [CLICK HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc)** *** ### Meetup Details 📍 **Meetup Location:** I will be standing outside of ST. CLAIR SUBWAT STATION right beside the McDonald wearing my Moose Hat. 🦌 🕛 **Meetup Time:** 12:00pm **I will only wait 5 minutes.** 💲 **Meetup Fee:** $5 cash 💵 or e-transfer 📲 to **[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com](mailto:mathewmaclean@hotmail.com)** 📍 **Ending Spot:** Swiss Chalet, a few blocks from the station. Planning to join us for lunch? Please let me know so I can give Swiss Chalet a rough estimate of how many people to expect. They don’t take reservations, but I’d like to give them an approximate number so they can be prepared for our group. 🍁 **Please note:** Swiss Chalet is a continuation of this event, not a separate event for anyone joining us for the walk. If you are attending the Brick Works walk **and** joining us for lunch at Swiss Chalet, you only pay the **$5 Meetup fee once**. If you are **only joining us at Swiss Chalet** and are not attending the walk, please sign up for the separate Swiss Chalet event. The **$5 Meetup fee applies** to that event. *** ### What to Bring * Water * Good walking shoes 👟 * A jacket or extra layer — fall weather can change quickly * Your camera or phone if you want to capture the colours! 📸 *** ### More About the Brick Works 🧱 From 1889 through the 1980s, the Don Valley Brick Works was one of Canada’s leading brickyards. In the 1990s, the former quarry was restored by the City of Toronto and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, transforming the site into the natural and cultural destination we know today. Opened to the public in 1996, Evergreen Brick Works now combines history, nature, wildlife, and trails in the heart of Toronto’s ravine system. In autumn, the surrounding landscape comes alive with reds, oranges, and golds, making it one of the city's great places to enjoy the fall colours. *** ✨ **Not sure yet? You can just show up on the day!** ⚠️ **Sometimes things happen and I may need to cancel. Please watch for updates before heading out.** 👤 **Organized by Mathew.** For questions, post on the Meetup wall or email **[torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com](mailto:torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com)**
