Edinburrgh, don't waste your time
Booked a Tuesday dinner a few days in advance. oh yes we have the perfect group for you.
Tue morning last minute, I get a message that it's the wrong age group for me, do you want to switch to next week?
Today arrives, same thing, this time wrong gender balance. And then cancelled entirely (or maybe they just said that to push me off).
They clearly can't make their model work here.
Complete waste of time.
EDIT: I asked for a refund, and after threatening a chargeback from the bank, they agreed

Hi Dave,
I’m really sorry for the experience you’ve had with us in Edinburgh – this is absolutely not how we want anyone to feel.
For our small-group dinners we match people within a 10-year age range and aim for a good gender balance, so occasionally if there are last-minute changes or cancellations we’ll offer to move someone rather than run a table that doesn’t meet what they signed up for. However, you should never have been moved twice or left feeling pushed off – it happening twice is really unusual and I completely understand your frustration.
We are still building up our Edinburgh community and we’re reviewing what happened here so it doesn’t repeat. We'll message you directly to try and put this right.
Best Wishes

Very good Salsa session
I went along to the Salsa session just off Cavendish Square. The venue was good, although there isn’t room for the class to grow. The tuition was very good technically, although probably should have been described as for beginners and new intermediate dancers.
I thoroughly enjoyed the event, and recommend it to anyone interested. When I have time and am in the area, I’ll go back.

Hi Hugh,
Thanks so much for coming along to our Salsa session and for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review.
We’re really glad you enjoyed the class and the teaching — and thank you for the helpful note about how the level is described. We’ll make that clearer so future guests know exactly what to expect.
It’s great to hear you’d come back when you’re in the area — we’d love to have you join us again anytime.

I wouldn't say a great evening only 5 at the table and one was 35 mins late, we ordered food at 7.45 and it turns up a hour later later, when the bill arrives there is vat on the food we ate and a service charge on top i thought menu price's included vat

Hi David,
Thanks for taking the time to share this – I’m really sorry the evening didn’t land as it should have.
We always aim for groups to start on time and for everyone to feel relaxed and looked after, so having someone arrive 35 minutes late would definitely have disrupted the flow of the night. We’ll speak with the venue about the delay with the food, as that shouldn’t have happened either.
Just to clarify, StoriBoard doesn’t charge anything on top for food or drinks – all VAT and service charges are set by the restaurant directly. But you’re absolutely right to expect clarity, and we’ll make sure the venue makes this more obvious upfront so there are no surprises on the bill.
Best wishes

Great way to meet new people, would recommend to people who are looking to add extra excitement in their weekly routine and challenge themselves to be more social. Will be booking again 👌🏽

A very disappointed experience
A very disappointed experience. I was expecting a meal with 5 other likeminded people selected based on the quiz we filled in. There was only three of us, including myself, and whilst we did chat, we really didn’t have anything in common and it was very awkward. I honestly wish I hadn’t bothered and save myself the fee. You guys didn’t deliver on what I was sold.

Hi Chris — I’m really sorry this fell short. You should expect a well-matched small group and a relaxed, natural conversation, and it sounds like we missed on both the group size and the chemistry. That isn’t the experience we aim to deliver.
Occasionally last-minute dropouts can reduce a table, but we take responsibility for how that feels on the night. I’d like to make this right for you: I’ll personally arrange a better-matched evening for you with a complimentary ticket, and we’ll keep you updated on group size ahead of time.
I’ll investigate what happened and get your replacement booked. Thanks for giving us the chance to fix this.

A fun night of darts and laughs
I had lots of fun last night at Flight Club meeting a wide range of people! I liked that there wasn’t the pressure to be talking the whole time because we had games to play, but everyone got on really well and stayed for food and drinks afterwards. Hoping that the event gets more popular so that people are able to be matched with more similar age groups and interests. Excited to go regularly in the new year! 😊🎯

I met 6 strangers! With a friend
Myself and my friend Dannie were the first to participate in the taking a friend to meet people we’ve never met before. And we had an amazing time! Our table of people were lovely and to have all types of conversations, perspectives & learn about different walks of life was a perfect way to enjoy our Tuesday evening.
The food was affordable and the vibe of the restaurant was amazing. I would recommend this to anyone who would love to make new connections, put themselves out their and try new food!

Something so different and fun ! What a great way to spice up your week and put yourself out of your comfort zone. Very grateful that Storiboard are also hands on and available to speak with on the night if needed. Definitely recommend their women only nights too !

Really lovely evening
I had a really fun evening! I was expecting there to be 6 of us, but there were only 3 in the end - unsure of this was due to people not booking on or people deciding not to come. So that was a tad disappointing initially, however, the 3 of us were matched up extremely well, similar personalities, similar humour, and had such a great night getting to know each other. I feared it might be a bit awkward or uncomfortable but it wasn't at all. I'll definitely be back!

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so glad you had a great evening — even with a smaller group — and that the match still worked so well. We always aim for the perfect mix of personalities, and it’s great to hear it led to such natural conversation and connection.
We’d love to welcome you back for another shared experience soon!

Only one other person showed up.
I went on this experience expecting to meet 4 like minded people. Instead there was one man there. Also, the restaurant was very expensive and not everyone can afford the prices. Was very disappointed as nothing was as I hoped

Hi Lorraine,
We’re really sorry this didn’t meet your expectations. That’s not the experience we want anyone to have. It sounds like the group size and venue combination didn’t work out as planned, and we completely understand how disappointing that would feel.

Always a Great Time with Storiboard Club!
I’ve been to three events with Storiboard Club so far (two bowling events and one dinner evening), and I’m attending another one tomorrow (a darts evening). The website can be a little buggy at times, but whenever I’ve had any issues or questions, the customer service via WhatsApp has been quick, friendly, and excellent. I’ve met a diverse range of people through these events and always have a great time. I plan to attend regularly from now on. It would be really nice if Storiboard Club introduced reunion events to bring past attendees back together!

Excessive emails after signing up to their list
Joined the email list as I thought I may want to attend future events but honestly the amount of emails received became intrusive and annoying. Unsubscribed after a few weeks as it was excessive.

Fabulous supper with new friends.
I went to my first event last night - a supper with five “strangers”. It was brilliant!! I felt we’d been really well matched and spent the whole evening chatting and laughing over a curry!! There were four women and two men - we all got on incredibly well!! I’d recommend this and say to anyone Just Do It!!

It’s such a great concept, put together by some really thoughtful and talented people. Met with complete strangers, and bonded over a nice meal and a couple drinks.
In a world where meeting people organically, this is great! Would definitely recommend.

A walk on the chaotic side
What a brilliant idea, especially in a bustling city like London, where connecting with others can be a challenge. I booked well in advance, but on my way to the venue, I received a message from Storiboard pushing the time back by an hour. Unfortunately, that meant I couldn’t stay for the whole event.
I mistakenly thought it was a mix of a music quiz and karaoke, but it turned out to be two hours of quiz followed by karaoke. I got to enjoy my group’s energetic performances, but I didn't get to join in. I gave three stars, mainly for my lovely, albeit much younger, group with whom I got along, but were not a match.
I provided this feedback and received excuses, including the assertion that I was given six hours' notice about the time change. Just a reminder: changes require 24 hours' notice. I was also told the time shift was due to merging groups because of cancellations, which explains the mismatch. Made me glad I did not commit and sign up for more.

First Storiboard Dinner
Had my first experience of a Storiboard Dinner last night in Edinburgh. Was apprehensive in going out with 5 strangers for dinner but came home buzzing having met 5 new friends. Amazing experience, gorgeous group of men and ladies. Highly recommend anyone who may be sitting on the fence to go for it.
Well organised, communications are great and a wonderful experience all round.
Looking forward to my next event 🐝
