How to find a date for dinner with friends

  1. Offer three or four evenings. Enough to find one that works, few enough that everyone answers quickly.
  2. Share one link. In the group chat or by email. Friends tap yes, if needed or no for each evening.
  3. See the best night. Venn puts the evening that works for the most people at the top.
  4. Pick it and add it to calendars. Book the table once you know the night and how many are coming.

Tips for a dinner everyone shows up to

  • Book after the date

    Once you know the night and the head count, booking a table is easy.

  • Say who’s cooking

    Potluck, restaurant or your place? Put it in the note.

  • Hide answers if you like

    Under Privacy options, only you see who said what.

  • Mind dietary needs

    Ask in the note, so nobody has to bring it up.
