About this event
The Exeter College student-run restaurant, @thirty-four is home to the prestigious Michael Caines Academy, which has been running for over a decade. It is located within the Laurence Building on the Hele Road campus. The award-winning restaurant is run by budding young chefs and enthusiastic waiting staff, who are all students studying at the college.
Although it's the food brings guests of age, some are business owners, some are retired, others are working professionals. Ages vary, backgrounds differ, but everyone has a story worth sharing.
Most who join us are open, curious, and friendly - often well educated, sometimes well travelled, single or partnered. They come not just for the meal, but for the laughter, the conversations, and the chance to meet someone new.
You might leave with a new friend, a future travel companion, or simply the warmth of having shared time with good company.
The seat price does not include any food and drink you order.

Frequently asked questions
We're a social dining experience that brings together people who love good food and great conversation. It's a way to meet new people, expand your social circle, and enjoy a delicious meal in a welcoming atmosphere – all without the hassle of trying to organise it yourself.
No, this is not a dating event. While we will occasionally host specific singles mixers, our regular events are focused on friendship and social connections. Whether you're single, married, or in a relationship, you're welcome to join us for good food and conversation.
Age really is just a number. Initially we thought we'd separate groups into age brackets, but actually it's a lot more fun being completely inter-generational. Everyone has a story to tell - even if they think they don't! Most guests are around 35 to 70 ish - but everyone is welcome.
We learnt the hard way - and as a result no refunds are now permitted. Too many people cancelled at short-notice and wanted refunds, This left us in the lurch to try to fill their places to ensure the experience for eveyone else was good, but also the costs of refunds added up within Eventbrite.
No - that transaction is purely between guests and the venue. Whilst not obligatory, we recommend a service tip of 10-12% of your bill. This isn't included in your ticket price and should be handled individually with the venue. Cash is always welcomed for the tip.
Ask for the Dinners With Friends table when you arrive. If you're first, we encourage you to help welcome other guests who appear to be looking for the group.
