Meet Expats and Locals Over Brunch

  • Brunch Worth the Trip

    Benedicts on brioche, crispy draniki, shakshuka, proper coffee. Worth showing up for even before the company.

  • The Whole City at One Table

    Newcomers, nomads, and lifelong Tbilisians, mixed on purpose, so you meet the city from both sides.

  • Zero Agenda

    No pitches, no icebreaker games, no name tags. Order, talk, stay as long as you like.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really free?
Entry is free. No ticket, no cover. You order whatever you like from the brunch menu and pay only for what you eat.
I’m coming alone. Isn’t that awkward?
Coming alone is the default here. Most of the table did exactly that. You’ll be seated in a group of 6 to 8, and the introductions take care of themselves.
What language does the table speak?
The event runs in English. Want a Georgian-speaking table? Tell us when you book and we’ll make it happen.
Who usually shows up?
A mix of expats, travelers, and locals, roughly mid-20s to 40s. The mix changes every week, which is half the fun.
Do I have to book, or can I just walk in?
Booking guarantees your seat. If there's space on Saturday, walk-ins are welcome too. Ask for Brunch With Strangers at the door.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes. Set the number of people when you book. Bigger groups may be split across tables so everyone still meets someone new.
What if my plans change?
No penalty. Message us on Instagram @crossroadsbistrotbs so we can pass the seat to someone else.
