New in Munich? Meet people over dinner

Moving abroad fills your calendar with admin and leaves the evenings empty. A Timeleft dinner in Munich, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7:00 pm, is open to everyone, so you might sit with someone who arrived last month and someone who's lived there for years. You can book in English, and all you do is show up.

Your first dinner in Munich, step by step

When you book

Pick a day and a language

Book in English or the local language, and we aim to group you with people who picked the same. Booking stays open until 13 hours before.
Before the dinner

We put the table together

Four to six people, chosen from your quiz answers, age band and language, at a restaurant we book. Most people come on their own, and a friend can join you as a +1 whose first event is free.
7:00 pm The start

Sit down

Tell the staff you're with Timeleft and take your seat. There's an icebreaker game in the app if the table wants a starting point.
Next week

Book another

There's an event to book each week, which gives a new city a rhythm before you've built your own.

Safety

Is it safe to meet strangers in a new city?

Every event is at a public venue we've vetted, and there's no one-to-one messaging before you meet. If you report someone, you're never placed with them again.

99%

Over 99% of Timeleft experiences happen without any safety incident, according to the safety framework we published in June 2026.

I joined about six months ago because I had just moved to a new city and didn’t know anyone. I found that it’s a wonderful way to meet people and have an enjoyable evening. I think what I like best is that everyone attending is there to meet new people.

As a shy / introverted person trying to find my way in a new country, this was a lovely chance to meet new people and have great conversations!

Questions from expats

When can I meet people in Munich?

Dinners, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7:00 pm. Coffee, Saturdays at 3:00 pm. Booking closes 13 hours before each event, or at midnight the night before if that would fall between midnight and 8:00 am. The dates above are the next ones you can still book.

Do I need to speak the local language?

No. You choose the language when you book, and we aim to put you with people who picked the same.

Is it just for expats?

No. These are regular Timeleft events, open to everyone, so people who just arrived in Munich meet people who've lived there for years.

Can I go on my own?

Yes. You book on your own and we put the group together, so you don't need to bring anyone.

What does it cost?

Booking takes a Timeleft membership, and the app shows its price in your country before you pay anything.

As many events as you like during your plan. Dinners, coffee and whatever else runs in your city, all on one membership.

Your own food and drinks. You order what you like and pay the venue yourself.
