Attended an event after seeing an ad…
Attended an event after seeing an ad online. It was a meetup at one of the bars they partner with in my local city. Easy to get to, very informed so knew what you were doing and the staff were aware of the event as well which helped reduce some of the stress as I was the first present in my group.
A good little group, unfortunately we had 2 no shows and it was all men which I was a little disappointed with as like a mix but I believe this was due to the no shows. Nevertheless we had a good time and I got the Instagram of one of the fellas so definitely works.

Hi Cozy,
Thanks so much for your review.
I’m really glad to hear the event was easy to get to and that both our lovely team and the venue staff helped create a smooth and welcoming start to the evening.
I completely understand how no-shows can impact the overall experience, including the group dynamic. It’s something we’re actively working on so we can create a more balanced and enjoyable experience for everyone.
It’s great to hear you had a good time and made a connection -that’s what it’s all about. I hope you'll join us again soon!
Sending love,
Olivia from PLY
bad experience with website but good customer service
Updated: they removed the free trial subscription I was meant to have for my inconvenience. Messaged and no replies
Had a bad experience with the website where the process to cancelling your subscription was totally obscure.
I wrote a complaint through several channels and they promptly remediated for me, so despite a bad experience I was pleased with the customer service.

Went to a meet up and felt excluded
Went to a meet up and felt excluded. Everyone else knew each other and were chatting in shared what’s app. There wasn’t any attempt to include me or introduce me to the group. Pretty pointless given the whole point is to make new friends and feel included.

Hey Lynne,
Thank you for sharing this. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience. This isn’t what we want for anyone attending a StoriBoard event.
Our goal is always to create a welcoming, inclusive, and genuinely fun space where people can meet and connect, so it’s disappointing to hear that you felt excluded. We really appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback - it helps us improve. We’re actively working on new icebreakers, games, and ways of hosting to ensure everyone feels properly introduced and included from the moment they arrive.
We’d really value the opportunity to make this right. If you’re open to it, please reach out to our customer success team, and we’ll personally help you find a better experience.

Loved my Storiboard night
Loved my Storiboard night at a Jamie Oliver cooking class. Great group of people, lovely instructors, really tasty food (even with my average skills). A fantastic, easy going get together with good people, where I learned new things too.

AVOID AVOID AVOID
I signed up in December 2025 for what I understood to be a one-off, three-month trial with Storiboard. During that period, I attended one meal event, where six people were expected but only three attended in total, which was disappointing.
I also attended a drinks event, where seating arrangements were pre-assigned on arrival. I was directed to a small upstairs room with uncomfortable seating, which did not provide a particularly welcoming or enjoyable experience.
As a result, I chose not to attend any further events during the trial period.
Three months later, I was automatically charged for a further three months. When I queried this and requested a refund, I was informed that the membership had converted into a rolling subscription and that a no-refund policy applied. This was not my understanding at the time I initially signed up, and I found the terms insufficiently clear.
Overall, I did not feel the service represented good value for money, and my experience did not meet expectations. I would recommend that anyone considering joining ensures they fully understand the subscription terms and cancellation policy before signing up.

Hi Claire,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We really value when guests speak up - honest input is how we grow and improve.
We've taken your points on board as a team, and we'll use this to reflect on how we can do better.
On seating: our pre-booked tables are arranged to help create well-matched groups based on personalities and interests - something that's a key part of the experience for many of our members. That said, we always aim to keep things flexible, and guests are absolutely welcome to move around and mingle if they prefer.
On the subscription side, the rolling renewal details are laid out at checkout and in our FAQs with a cancellation link, but we're glad our customer support team were able to resolve this directly for you.
We're so sorry your experience wasn't as you'd hoped and we'd love the chance to welcome you back in the future.
Best wishes,
The StoriBoard Club

It was a great experience meeting people offline. The people I met at the event were really nice, and it didn’t feel awkward at all. Choose the right activities, and you’ll meet people with the same vibe—and maybe even find a genuine friend like me!

Nice choice of activities
Nice choice of activities, you get to meet everyone who attends most events, not only people in your designated group. Friendships are formed and out of storiboard meet ups and events are planned and enjoyed by new friends. The admin team are great, and keep you informed every step of your planned event.

You've captured exactly what the StoriBoard Club is all about — creating spaces where genuine friendships can grow, not just within a group, but across everyone who comes together at our events.
Hearing that real friendships have formed and continued beyond a singular experience is honestly the best kind of review we could ask for. Friendship starts by showing up, but lives on through consistency!
We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to our team - we work hard behind the scenes to ensure every event runs smoothly, and feedback like yours means the world to us.
We can't wait to see you at many more events in the near future!

All in all, the chef was very patient with us, explained everything clearly, and the food was delicious. I strongly recommend it for two people who want to learn how to cook and have some fun.

Teething problems
New organisational company. Their site offers Dinner Dates and Drink Dates as the only 2 options when booking in my area. I would feel more comfortable at a dinner date and so i selected my personal interests from the small list of options they gave.
So last week during my 7 day trial i was told 5 people would attend who shared similar interests. they give you 24hrs notice on where the event is being held.
But i never got to meet them.
i bought my train ticket and all ready.
then around 11am i was told that the event had been cancelled because a few people had dropped out due to illness. i guess it can happen.
they then offered me 3 options,
1 Join another group tonight
2 Move to next weeks dinner
3 Choose another date for one of our upcoming mixed-gender dinners or events.
Up until this point i presumed it would be mixed gender and now was given it only as a future option they might do.
So i chose the slightly younger group.
20 minutes went by and they back pedal on their option.
First their response was addressing a different person so felt inpersonal and i had to correct them. They told me the option they gave was not available and whether i would like a drinks event instead this Friday.
Again drinking events is not for me and is the main reason i chose the dinner event.
They thanked me for my flexibility and i chose to reschedule next week.
Train ticket 50% refunded due to same day cancellation.
Next week came and 24 hours before they reveal the venue was at the same place from last week.
Then as regular as clock work around 11am i get told my event has also been cancelled - due to unforseen circumstances.
So i am 2 weeks in. Past the 7 day free trial, my first subscription payment goes through for £16.99
I have asked for a refund and cancelled by subscription.
Their only part in the process is to organise like minded people into age groups. Feels like only a handful in similar age groups have subscribed to justify any such chance at attending any of the venues.
They claim to be partners with venues in the area yet i was organised into the same venue twice. Maybe only a partner with 1 dinner organiser.
Update:
Storiboard have issued me a full refund and have been very sincere to the complaints i raised. They are a fairly new company and have dealt with my issues and is all i expect them to do. I hope their company does well working around the issues with cancellations for other members.

Hi Jim,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us - we're disappointed to hear about the frustration and inconvenience you've faced over the past couple of weeks.
We completely understand how disheartening it must have been to experience two consecutive cancellations, especially having already committed to travel arrangements. While illness and unforeseen circumstances are sometimes outside of our control, we recognise that doesn't make the situation any less frustrating and we're sorry we weren't able to do more to make it right in the moment.
You've raised some fair points around communication and we want you to know that we're taking these on board as a team. Every interaction with our members should feel personal and attentive, and we're truly sorry that we fell short of that on this occasion.
We're glad our customer care team was able to find a resolution for you. We'd love the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and if you'd ever like to chat further, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly.
Best wishes,

## 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.

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!

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.

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!
