One of the best parts of travel is trying local food, and another is meeting people from all over the world. But what if you didn’t have to choose between the two? With Eatwith, you can enjoy both at once!
Eatwith connects travelers with local hosts in countries worldwide, offering unforgettable home dining experiences that bring people together around authentic local food. From dinners, to cooking classes, and wine tastings, there is always a special experience you can join.
Sure, you could try local specialties at a restaurant. But we'll explain why an Eatwith experience offers more than a traditional dining setting.
Why Choose an Intimate Social Dining Experience Instead of a Restaurant?
Connect with Locals in a Unique Way
Eatwith experiences go beyond just food—they’re about meaningful connections. Every Eatwith dining experience is an opportunity to meet locals and other travelers, making it a fantastic chance to connect deeply with a city’s people and culture.
Your hosts, whether a solo home-cook, a friendly couple, or a professional chef, are just as eager to meet you and share their culture with you! You will get a glimpse of their daily lives, and you might also meet their friends and family.
With Eatwith, dining is not just a meal but a social and cultural experience experience that reveals what makes a place truly special.
Learn the Stories Behind Your Meal
Ever wanted to know the story and hard work behind a delicious dish at a restaurant? With Eatwith, you can!
Our hosts are passionate about sharing the stories, traditions, and techniques behind their recipes. Many of our hosts even offer cooking classes, so you can roll up your sleeves and create the dish yourself, right in their kitchens. It’s like cooking with long-time friends—personal, relaxed, and incredibly enriching.
The intimate nature of these experiences means there's time to chat to your host, ask questions, and get to know them. Dining or cooking in a small group gives you access to local life that you might not otherwise.
Discover Insider Tips About the City
Locals see their city through a different lens than visitors. Whether you’re in Paris, Florence, or Barcelona, our hosts love sharing their insider knowledge.
Curious about life as a Parisian living in the chic French capital? Wondering about the best hidden gems in Barcelona? Or maybe you’d love a recommendation for the best pasta in Florence? When you dine with Eatwith, you’re in for local tips, hidden gems, and insights that are hard to find elsewhere. (Try getting that out of a famously grumpy Parisian waiter!)
Guests often leave with a list of recommendations of what to do and where to eat next. After cooking classes you will take home the recipe to recreate for your friends and family!
Enjoy Authentic Local Cuisine
Finding truly authentic food can be surprisingly tough in popular tourist destinations, where restaurants often cater to visitors.
With Eatwith, you’re enjoying food prepared by locals, exactly the way they enjoy it. You’ll savor the flavors, ingredients, and traditions that reflect each region’s authentic culinary heritage. You'll be eating the way they do, and how they do. It’s as real as it gets!
Experience True Personal Attention
Unlike busy restaurants, our hosts focus on creating a warm, personalized experience. From start to finish, they plan every detail of your visit, welcoming you into their homes with the warmth and care like close friends. On food tours they will introduce you to local vendors who will share their stories and answer your questions, giving you a deeper understanding of local life. This level of personal attention sets Eatwith apart, making your experience both genuine and unforgettable.
