About
The Twelve Tables Club
A social dining and events club for women in their 20s (21+), hosted across the DMV at some of the region’s top trendy spots.
​
Each month, we host our signature Table for Twelve dinner at a different restaurant, alongside curated pop-up events throughout the month.​ All events are currently limited to 12 seats and are first come, first served.
Once the table is full, it’s full.
Signing up is super easy, just follow the link below or head to any of our socials for more info! If the Table you are looking for is already full, join our waitlist! If you signed up and cannot make it anymore, your spot will go to someone on the waitlist, so make sure to let us know!
A $12 commitment fee is required to reserve your spot at each event. This fee helps secure venues and supports the planning and coordination that goes into creating each experience, along with adding fun, exciting surprises along the way. The commitment fee does not cover food or drinks and does not include tickets or admission for pop-up events.
There’s no splitting checks and no group meal stress. Everyone pays individually.
Restaurants and events rotate across cuisines, neighborhoods, and experiences so you can join when it excites you and skip when it doesn’t. Who doesn't love trying different places?
We meet for our monthly dinner on a Friday night, leaving the rest of the evening open, whether that means drinks after, going out, or heading home early. For pop-up events, we meet directly at the event location on different days to allow more girlies to join in on the fun.
Every table starts the same with an icebreaker, where everyone shares their name, a current obsession, and one place they want to go next. The rest of the experience is left to our conversation flow.
Come for the plot, stay for the conversation, leave with new connections and friends for life.
Simple. Intentional. Limited. Iconic.

Hi I am Jacoba!!
​
I’m a Washington, DC native with a big personality, strong opinions, a deep love for dressing up, and making things feel special. I’ve always been the friend who plans the dinner, picks the place, makes the reservation, and somehow ends up hosting without even meaning to. I love aesthetic spaces, good lighting, beautiful tables, yummy food, and the kind of nights where you look around and think, "wow, I’m really glad I came."
​
I’m creative at heart and very people-oriented. I notice vibes, I notice energy, and I care a lot about how things feel. I love bringing different personalities together, mixing people who wouldn’t normally meet, and watching conversations unfold naturally. I’m the type of person who believes dinner is never just dinner: it’s an excuse to connect, to laugh, to linger a little longer, to order another drink, and to feel part of something.
I also know firsthand how weird and isolating making friends in your 20s can feel - especially in a city like DC where everyone’s busy, transient, or glued to their schedule. I wanted something that wasn’t a bar crawl, wasn’t networking, and wasn’t awkward. I wanted an excuse to get dressed, leave the house, sit down somewhere beautiful, and actually talk to people who are open, curious, and fun.

Twelve Tables Club is an extension of me and the way I love to socialize: intentional but playful, elevated but not stiff, fun without being chaotic. It’s for people who want a reason to put on a cute outfit, eat really good food, and make friends in a way that feels natural and exciting. One table, twelve seats, and the kind of nights you’re still thinking about the next morning.
