Berkeley Supper Club began in August 2023 as a series of intimate private dinners centered on thoughtful, ingredient-driven food.  In 2025, we formally organized as a 501(c)7 social club to support the growing community around the table.

To join us, follow our Substack and RSVP on Luma. Spots are limited—it’s a club, after all. (view our bylaws) 

Registration, Refunds & Pricing

Berkeley Supper Club plans each dinner around confirmed guests. Every seat represents purchased ingredients, reserved space, and volunteer time. We use Luma for event registration: https://luma.com/berkeleysupperclub 

Registration typically closes the Wednesday before each event so we can finalize our guest count and prepare accordingly (assuming the dinner is not sold out earlier).

Refunds

• More than 72 hours before the event: Full refund available upon request. The more notice you give us, the better.

• Within 72 hours: Generally non-refundable.

• No-shows: Non-refundable.

If something unexpected comes up, please reach out as soon as possible. Life happens, and we try to balance compassion with sustainability so we can continue hosting these dinners for the community.

Pricing Transparency

Berkeley Supper Club is a community project, not a business, and we do not profit from these dinners. Your ticket helps cover:

• Ingredients and beverages

• Prep kitchen and event space rental

• Event insurance

• Reimbursement for volunteer contributors

We use a sliding-scale model to keep the dinners both sustainable and accessible:

• $60 — Community: A subsidized rate to help keep the table open to all.

• $90 — Standard: Covers the full cost of the event.

• $120+ — Supporter: Helps fund future meals and make space for community-rate tickets.

The current minimum suggested ticket price is $60. This was originally supported by Mem Global’s MHWOW program (formerly Moishe House), and we’ve now grown to the point where we can maintain this pricing independently.

Trades, Bitcoin, or two sheep for one wood? Feel free to reach out about unconventional payment methods — we’re open.

Thank you for supporting this small, community-driven table.

Note: This list reflects some of the volunteers and partners who have made Berkeley Supper Club possible. Many more people have contributed over the years, and we’re thankful to everyone who has helped bring an event to life.
