Food experiences
worth showing up for.
Pop-up dinners, supper clubs, tastings and dinner parties from chefs, mixologists and venue hosts you and your friends already trust.
The basics.
Real people, every night.
Tenseats is where real chefs, mixologists, venue hosts and creators put on pop-up dinners, supper clubs, tastings and cocktail nights, and where you go to find one. Follow them, message them, book their next night. Built for nights of ten to a hundred guests, run by the person cooking or pouring. Not for festivals, concerts or ticket resale.
$4.99
One fee. That’s the cap.
You pay the ticket price plus one service fee, and it stops at $4.99. Cheaper tickets cost less. Other platforms price tickets as a percentage, so the fee climbs with the night. Ours is a flat number that holds. The fee drops to nothing when you or your organizer is an Insider, and the ticket price goes straight to whoever put the night together.
On a $100 dinner, a 3.7% + $1.79 platform adds $5.49 in service fees. We add $4.99. On a $200 tasting, they add $9.19. We add $4.99.

Five sides
of one table.
Guests, chefs, mixologists, venue hosts, creators. Different reasons to pull up a chair, the same table.
Chefs
Cook the dinner you'd run anyway, for a room that fills. Stripe pays out every two business days, and you keep every dollar of the ticket price.
Mixologists
Run the cocktail night you'd put on anyway. You set the pour list, you keep the ticket price.
Venue Hosts
Open your space for a night that fills it properly. You set the date, you set the rules.
Creators
Write about the nights worth knowing about. Your following becomes their next table.
The Elements · The Planner
Bring the experience to life.
Answer a few questions up front and the whole night comes into focus: the menu, the hours, what it really costs to put on. You bring the cooking. The Planner keeps the numbers straight.
- How many people are actually eating?
- What does the food actually cost?
- What does the bar actually cost?
- What are you not counting yet?

Free to start. $49 once for the full thing. How it works →
The food worth your night out lives in a private dinner in someone’s loft, a one-off pop-up, a mixologist’s signature pour.
We built Tenseats so those nights are easy to find, and easy to book.
