Italian Dinner Shuffle at The Grand Assembly Rooms York
Overview
We start our celebration weekend in York off with a dinner shuffle. This is a three course meal but everyone will swap seats between each course so you get to mix and mingle with more people across the evening. It's a great chance to relax into the weekend and meet a few people!
The starters and desserts are a sharing board and you can preorder your own main and drink.
The Grade I listed York Assembly Rooms is an 18th-century building originally used as a place for high class social gatherings in the city and is a fabulous venue to get together.
After our meal we can head out to explore more of York's nightlife.
