Social Lunches & Afternoon Teas

Eating alone is one of the quiet sadnesses of getting older. We decided to fix it.

← All activities

So much of life happens around a table — the food, yes, but really the talking, the laughing, the stories told and retold. When that table goes quiet, something important goes with it.

Every fortnight, Bajan Gold gathers around a long table somewhere lovely on the south coast. We rotate the venues so there's always somewhere new to look forward to. The food is good. The conversation is better. And by the time the plates are cleared, the people you sat down with as strangers feel a lot more like friends.

This isn't a formal affair. It's a warm one. Come hungry, come chatty, come exactly as you are.

What to expect on your first visit

We'll tell you where to meet and make sure you know how to get there — and if transport is a worry, just say, because someone in the group is almost always heading your way. When you arrive, you'll be seated with friendly faces and folded straight into the conversation. No awkward standing about. By dessert, you'll wonder why you waited so long.
