Tried StoriBoard for the first time and genuinely loved it.
I signed up, chose a date and they matched me with a small group of people with similar interests. The restaurant got revealed the day before, it was a Thai spot in Edinburgh I’d always wanted to try! We ended up being three of us and the vibe was just easy. Good food, great conversation, lots of laughing. No awkwardness, no forced activities, just real people sitting down and connecting. It’s such a refreshing change from endless scrolling and group chats that go nowhere. I’d 100% do it again.

Hi Ana,

This review was so lovely to read! A Thai spot you'd always wanted to try, good conversation and a group that just clicked - it doesn't get better than that!

We're so glad your first experience with us felt so easy, we can't wait to see you at the next one!

IRL connection over doom-scrolling and group chats, always! 💛

## Palo Restaurant

Such a Special Night!

I honestly didn’t expect the evening to turn out the way it did. I went in for dinner with six complete strangers — and somehow, it became one of the most enjoyable nights I’ve had in a long time. The atmosphere felt warm and relaxed from the start. Nothing felt forced or overly formal. It was just good energy, beautiful surroundings, and a space that naturally brought everyone together.

The food? Incredible. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor without being overwhelming. You could tell care went into every detail — from presentation to taste. It wasn’t just a meal; it felt like an experience.

What really made it special, though, was how easy it was to connect with everyone around the table. Great food has a way of doing that — breaking the ice, sparking conversation, and turning strangers into friends for the night. If you’re looking for more than just dinner — if you want something memorable — this is the place. I’ll definitely be back.

Hi Somu,

Thank you so much for your fantastic review and incredibly kind words. We really loved reading about your experience at our Dinner Club!

We're so glad that your night felt comfortable yet memorable and exciting! There's something really special about strangers coming together, sharing a meal & leaving as friends - and we’re so happy you felt that magic too.

It's lovely to hear that the food lived up to the moment and that every detail added to your experience. We can't wait to have you back around the table, or at another small group shared experience soon!

Was a fun experience and nice to try something new! Also liked that the restaurant was somewhere I hadn’t tried before and was revealed the evening before as adds to the build up and mystery for the night!

A good way to connect with people but don’t have too much expectations

I have been to a few of these events in Manchester for drinks and it has been very good meeting new people and going onto bars afterwards with Sarah and Miriam and I also has a good group at my first event I attended my recent one I attended last night the venue was very noisy with loud music you could not hear people’s conversations etc and this lead to one or 2 people leaving the bar with in the first hour the group I got left with was very cliquey and I felt like a spare part I got the feeling they did not want me there some of them had more conversations with strangers in the bar then they had any interaction with me all night those are the downsides but I would definitely recommend people trying these events

Hi Paul,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re really pleased to hear that you’ve had positive experiences at our events and that you’ve enjoyed meeting new people and continuing the night afterwards - that’s exactly the kind of connection we hope to create!

We’re so sorry to hear that your most recent event didn’t live up to that standard. Venue noise levels and group dynamics can definitely have a big impact on the overall experience and it’s disappointing to hear that this affected your night.

Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us and we’ll be taking it on board when reviewing venue choices and how we support groups in mixing more naturally. It’s really important to us that every experience feels welcoming, inclusive and enjoyable for everyone!

Thanks so much for being part of our Club!

Best wishes,

Responsive and efficient

I had to rearrange an event and subsequently went over the 7 day free trial. The Storiboard team kindly extended my trial so that I could go to an event before committing to the subscription. They were very responsive and efficient with this.

You'll Never know until you give it go | Fantastic Time

It was such an exciting evening, the movie-Film was beautiful, realistic, basically about life and what realistically happens to people, loved it.
The group really got on really well, we didn't need an icebreaker topic it was so natural, we talked all tru, before, during and afterward, all the way to the Angel Station before everyone went their separate destination.....it was really nice experience for me, never done something like this before but I had such a great time and I would encourage people to give it go, you'll never know until you give it a try, what you got to loose, that's what I told myself after contemplating cancelling few times, now am glad I didn't.

Thank you so much for sharing this - we absolutely loved reading about your experience with us!

It’s really special to hear how naturally the group connected and how the evening flowed from enjoying the film into meaningful conversations all the way home. Those moments of easy, genuine connection are exactly what we're all about!

Thank you for encouraging others to give us a try too - sometimes the best moments really do start with taking that small leap.

We hope to see you again soon and thank you for being part of our Club.

fun experience

I recently attended a salsa class with Storiboard, and it was such a fun experience! We took a quick quiz and got matched with other participants, which made it really easy to connect with new people. The class was engaging, well-paced, and the atmosphere was so friendly. I loved getting to dance with strangers and immediately feel part of the group. Highly recommend this for anyone looking to try something new and social!

The service is a con it says free trial yet you are charged £28.99 with a no refund policy. I am sure that’s not legal and will be checking with Actionfraud and reporting them to visa

Do it!

I had an amazing time at the storiboard club event. Ended up meeting some of the friends I made that evening again and all in all I just think the storiboard club is perfect for travelers, busy people, introvert-extroverts, and anyone who’s tired of trying to make friends the “traditional” way. If you want to meet people without the pressure — and without the chit chat — this is for you. Would love it if they introduced it to other parts of the world as well :)

Where connections are made

The organisers really believe in friendship, and they show it through the friendliness of each individual interaction, as well as the events they organise! They choose activities that are thoughtful and meaningful.
I personally appreciate their customer care, and their receptiveness to feedback. It's rare to see a business that is so friendly and approachable!

So I joined storiboard last week very apprehensive but I had an absolute blast at last night’s meetup! Such a friendly, welcoming group and really well organised. I met so many lovely people and the atmosphere made it so easy to relax and have fun. It was great to connect, laugh, and just enjoy a brilliant night out together. I’ll definitely be coming along again and would highly recommend this group to anyone thinking of joining.

Well organised , great people and good fun

I attended the Karaoke quiz night in London’s west end. It was a really fun night. Very well organised and there were approx 20-25 people from Storiboard in attendance. Everyone was fabulous and it was a good mix of ages, gender and personalities. I will definitely go again.
