Franzus Social is an approval-only dinner club for Kiwi and Australian expats in the US. Once a month, on the second Wednesday, we put together a table of 5–8 people at a great restaurant. No name badges, no pitches — just the easy kind of conversation that happens when you're around your own.

The couples membership covers both of you for $65/month. You'll always be seated at the same table. One subscription, two seats, no dickheads.

What's included:

• One curated dinner per month, second Wednesday

• Both partners at every dinner, always at the same table

• Handpicked tables of 5–8 members

• SMS reminders and event details for both of you

• Skip a month anytime — no penalty

• Cancel anytime, no lock-in

How it works:

Both partners apply through franzussocial.com and are reviewed individually. Once you're both approved, you'll receive a link to this page to activate your couples subscription. One of you manages the billing — it covers both seats.

If you cancel, the membership ends for both partners. If one partner wants to continue individually, they can sign up for an individual membership at $39/month.

Approval required. At the end of the night, you pay for your own food and drinks — just like you would dining out with friends.
