A walking dinner is a standing dinner where guests move freely and eat several smaller courses, served at standing tables. You mingle between the courses instead of sitting down all evening, and therefore get to talk to more people. The dishes come one at a time, from small tasting portions to slightly larger dishes, and the menu is adapted to the occasion, the season and any allergies.

How a walking dinner works
A walking dinner is a standing dinner with several smaller courses, served at standing tables. Guests move freely between the tables, talk to each other and taste their way through the menu. It is a dinner without fixed seats, where the mood is relaxed and the conversations flow.
The dishes can vary from small tasting portions to slightly larger dishes. The menu consists of several courses, so that guests get a real dinner in a format that suits standing and mingling.
Walking dinner for companies and private
A walking dinner suits corporate events, conferences and meetings well, but also private parties where you want to serve dinner without tying guests to a table. We operate from Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö and travel up to 30 km at no extra cost.

Planning your walking dinner
We help you plan the whole evening, from how many courses are served to how the food best reaches the guests. Because the guests stand and move around, the format works well in venues with space to mingle, for example an office, an event room or your home. The chef takes care of cooking and serving, so you can focus on your guests.
The format gives guests the chance to talk to more people than at a table, and it is easy to move around and say hello to new people. That makes a walking dinner a good choice when you want guests to get to know each other, for example at customer events, staff parties or conferences. Because the dishes are served in mingle size no one needs to sit still, and you avoid seating plans.
Feel free to get in touch with your wishes regarding number of guests, date and place, and we will come back with a proposal for menu and set-up for your evening. We are happy to answer questions about how a walking dinner works in your particular venue.
