8 Strangers, 1 Table, Countless Stories
Blind 8 is a dinner party where 8 strangers come together — no plus-ones, no idea who is walking through the door. A chance to experience great food, and a night of unexpected connection. What started with a handwritten sign in Brooklyn has grown into a community across cities and countries, built one table at a time.

Every dinner has 8 seats. You can choose the date and city that works for you, and pick from a list of hosts: either past guests turned hosts or join a Founders’ Table, hosted by Blind 8’s creators who’ve led 60+ dinners across NYC, D.C., and beyond. Once you find your fit, reserve your spot by paying the reservation fee (varies by dinner). No matter what you choose, the experience is always thoughtfully curated, welcoming, and one-of-a-kind

Come enjoy a high-quality dinner, — but more importantly, an invitation into something rare: a carefully curated table, intentional conversation, and a night built around connection. You'll leave feeling like you've known everyone for years, even though you've just met.
Blind 8 has proven to be a
one-of-a-kind experience — and we’d love to show you why!
Built with Intention
Rule Number 1: No Plus Ones
The number one rule of Blind 8 is that no one knows anyone. Friends can be a comfort, but they can also be a crutch. When you arrive solo, you show up more open, more present, and more you — which makes room for deeper, more honest connection with the others around the table.
Personally-Curated Tables
Every seat is intentional. Every guest at the table, is someone we have personally met, felt their energy, and chosen to bring them in. No apps, no algorithms — just real conversations and human intuition guiding who sits next to whom. That’s how the magic begins.
The Blind 8 Community
Once you attend a dinner, you’re in. You’ll get access to the wider Blind 8 community — over 500 past guests — and invitations to our reunion events, where familiar faces and new connections come together in completely different ways.
