Group of six having dinner together, UNPLUG phone jail on the table

How UNPLUG Works

01

Get Verified

Real identity. Government ID verified. No fakes. No bots. Everyone at the table is exactly who they say they are.

02

Get Grouped

UNPLUG's algorithm assembles your group based on vibe, interests, and tier. You find out where you're going the morning of.

03

Phones in the Jail

A branded phone jail sits on your table all night. The venue host holds the release. You talk to humans for 90 minutes.

04

Rate the Night

Rate the venue, the food, the experience, and the people. Every honest review unlocks your next night out.

And if it was awkward? That's part of it. Rate it #thatwasawkward and try again.

The Moment

Something happened. We don't know what. We want to know what.

Not every night will be your people. But the nights that are — you get to keep them.

Every Night Has a Theme

UNPLUG nights are never just dinner. Pick your vibe.

Theme Clubs

🎙
Founder's Table
Entrepreneur night. No pitch decks.

🎙Founder's Table
Entrepreneur night. Conversation prompt cards on the table. No pitch decks. No networking. Just real conversation about what you're building, what's not working, and what you wish someone had told you earlier. Leave your title at the door.

🏒
Jerseys and Drinks
Sports on. Group seating.

🏒Jerseys and Drinks
Wear your team. Bring your opinions. The game is on in the background, the food is good, and at least three arguments will start before the main course. The phone is in the jail so you can't check the score — you'll have to actually watch.

🎭
Costume Bloc
Themed costume nights.
Tap to learn more
🎭Costume Bloc
The venue picks the theme. You show up in costume. It's as chaotic as it sounds and somehow always becomes the best night. Nobody knows each other and everyone is dressed like something — that's the only icebreaker you need.

Trivia Pack
Tables compete.

🧠Trivia Pack
No Googling. Phones are in the jail. Six strangers against the clock, arguing about answers they're mostly wrong about. UNPLUG tables compete against each other. Losers buy the next round. Winners feel unreasonably smug.

🎵
Vinyl Night
One record. Argue about it.
Tap to learn more
🎵Vinyl Night
The table gets a record. You argue about it. Is this the greatest album of all time or massively overrated? You have 90 minutes, no phones, and six opinions. Go.

The Blind Table
Full blind. No exceptions.

🎲The Blind Table
Blind mode only. No names, no photos, no venue until the morning of. You show up. You find out. Some nights are magic. Some are legendary for different reasons. All of them are a story.

🥤
Dry Club
Zero proof. Full experience.
Tap to learn more
🥤Dry Club
Not every great night needs alcohol. Dry Club is for the people who want the table, the conversation, and the experience — without the drink. UNPLUG partners with venues that take their non-alcoholic programs seriously. Craft mocktails. Thoughtful pairings. Nothing is missing.

🍷
Wine and Tapas
Small plates. Shared bottles.
Tap to learn more
🍷Wine and Tapas
Some nights are meant to be slow. Small shared plates, curated wine selections, venues that know what they're doing with both. The table fills up. The bottles open. The conversation starts somewhere and ends up somewhere completely different. These are the nights where 90 minutes becomes a suggestion.

🥩
Dads Night Out
No kids. No agenda.
Tap to learn more
🥩Dads Night Out
You spend most of your life being needed. Tonight nobody needs you for anything. A table of dads, a serious meal, and absolutely nowhere to be. The phone goes in the jail. The work Slack can wait. For 90 minutes you are just a person at a table with other people, eating something good and saying whatever you actually think.

💐
Moms Night Out
You've earned this.
Tap to learn more
💐Moms Night Out
You know what you've been carrying. You know how long it's been since you sat at a table and had a conversation that wasn't about logistics. The phone goes in the jail. Nobody can reach you. For 90 minutes you remember who you are when nobody needs anything from you. That's not selfish. That's necessary.

Italian done right. House-made pasta, family-style portions, the kind of meal that makes you feel like you've known everyone at the table for years — even when you met them 45 minutes ago.
