About this activity

Imagine a fun dinner where you don't stay in one restaurant, you go to three! Instead of waiting in long lines, we have a comfy, reserved seat ready for you at each spot.


We bring you delicious food and drinks at each place, and we handle all the planning and moving around. It's like a VIP food adventure just for your group, so all you have to do is relax, eat, and enjoy!

What you'll do

Your Seated, Stress-Free Lineup:

  • Dickson’s Farmstand Meats: Begin with an elegant, curated charcuterie and wine pairing sourced from New York's best farms. The perfect setting for networking in a hidden Chelsea Market gem.
  • The Lobster Place: Dive into signature, fresh seafood, including a taste of their famous lobster roll and fun, savory “tricked-out Tokyo tots.” A guaranteed crowd-pleaser and NYC favorite!
  • Market 57 (Exclusive VIP Seating): Conclude your night in a reserved section with food from Nom Wah and pours from Harlem Hops. A lively finale with diverse culinary options. Plus, a rooftop park with sweeping skyline views!
  • Alternate Finale Option (for the adventurous team): If your team wants an evening stroll, we can swap out Market 57 for Ana Wine Bar at Hudson Yards. Enjoy a brief, guided stroll along the High Line, followed by local craft beer or wine alongside sophisticated small bites. (Only available for tours beginning 5 PM or earlier)

What to prepare

What We Provide (Inclusions)

  • All-Inclusive Dining: Pre-paid, curated food courses and drink pairings at every stop along the route.
  • Guaranteed Seating: Reserved tables are secured at all three vendor locations. Your group skips every line.
  • Seamless Logistics: A dedicated Host manages the entire itinerary, pacing, and all vendor coordination.

What You Provide (Preparation)

  • A few simple steps on your end ensure the entire experience flows flawlessly.
  • Final Guest Count: Please provide a confirmed list of all attendees 30 days before tour
  • Dietary Needs: Communicate all allergies or dietary restrictions (vegetarian, gluten-free, etc.) by 14 days out from tour
  • Punctuality: Arriving promptly at the designated meeting time is essential to honor reserved seating times at the following venues.
  • Comfortable Shoes: While mostly a seated experience, there is light walking involved between the culinary stops.

In short: You bring your appetite; we handle every single detail.

Booking with Spaciously

Book an activity with a few clicks

To book, follow the secure checkout process on the website. This will reserve your host's time.

If you need extra help with anything, just leave us a note in the Comments field! We're happy to help with food and venue recommendations.

After you check out, you will receive a confirmation email and a receipt. Very shortly after that, our team will reach out to connect you with your host and help with the logistics and questions!

Expect no extra fees or charges

All prices are upfront. There are no extra charges beyond what you pay when you book. In 99% of cases, hosts won't ask for tips because they're already included in the price.

All activities are private

All activities you see on Spaciously are private. You will get a dedicated instructor. You will also get either an entire venue or a section of a venue to yourselves.

All activities are available

If our calendar allows you to pick a date and time, your activity is available! In the rare scenario that your host has an emergency and can't make the date, it's our responsibility to find you a substitute host or a substitute activity quickly. If you don't like the options, we'll send you a full refund.

Ask us a question

We are here to make sure your team gets the event they will enjoy. Helping you find the best activity for your team is the best part of our job. Send us a chat message, a text (415 798-0382) or an email (hello@spaciously.io). If you contact us in the morning or early afternoon, we'll respond in a few minutes.

Trust Spaciously hosts

We work only with highly reliable hosts. Every single one of our hosts is a small business owner. We either saw them in action, received a recommendation from another client or had a personal call to go over their proposed activity. Small business owners spend years mastering their skills. They put great care into planning your experience.

Organize a team-building activity at your office

People love when they don't have to go out of their way for team-building. Invite the activity host to travel to your venue by selecting the option "My venue/office."

Some building management companies don't allow certain activities, e.g. cooking if you don't have a kitchen. Make sure you check this before you book.

Most buildings require a certificate of insurance. A one-off certificate of insurance costs ~$150 online, but 99% of the time, our hosts can provide one for free. There may be some back-and-forth with your building management to agree on the coverage, but we are happy to collaborate with you on this.

Cancel or change your reservation

Refer to the cancellation policy on each listing when you book to see how much time you have to cancel your reservation. To cancel, answer the email thread we will start with you or contact hello@spaciously.io.

Regardless of the cancellation policy, hosts usually allow you to move the time of your booking a bit or to add a few more people. We are very collaborative when it comes to small event adjustments. Ultimately, we all want your event to be successful because we want to be your partners for a long time!

Reviews of Spaciously

I had a concierge service except the price wasn’t a secret. I knew exactly what I was getting. And the communication was right there with it.

Spaciously was great to work with and flexible in the planning process. The event was fun, informative, and easily adapted to our needs and setup. I highly recommend working with this company.
