Dixner: French Social Dining App Expands to London

A French app to meet strangers over memorable dinners is expanding to more cities, including London. Dixner brings 10 compatible strangers together using its algorithm to share a curated social dining experience.

Dixner’s name (pronounced dee-neh) is a nod to the experience it offers, combining the French words for the number 10 and the verb to dine. Users answer a detailed questionnaire when they join, which helps the app’s algorithm match them with ideal dinner companions based on personality and interests.

While other apps offer chance encounters over dinner, Dixner’s offering includes features unique to the platform. For starters, there is a Dixner ambassador at each dinner, someone who helps to promote a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and to facilitate networking. It also offers several upcoming date options to ensure all users can find suitable availability.

In addition, the dinners take place in private rooms of high-end restaurants, to avoid loud environments disruptive to conversations. For £90, participants enjoy a social culinary experience, including champagne, wine, a starter, main course, and dessert, all in an intimate and relaxed setting.

Adding a layer of convenience for users is Dixner’s flexible cancellation policy, which allows users to cancel up to 72 hours before the event. Users can then either reschedule for another date or request a full refund.

In France, the average person from the age of 35 onwards will only make two new genuine friendships for the rest of their lives, according to a LinkedIn post by Dixner. By blending fine dining with social discovery, the app taps into the growing demand for meaningful experiences conducive to making authentic new friendships.

Dixner is currently available in 22 major cities across Europe and the UK, but also in Singapore and Marrakech. It’s soon to expand to Stockholm, Zurich, Madrid and three more French cities.
