About us

Welcome to the Worcester Young(ish) Fine(ish) Dining Club.
I’ve started this group for like minded people who would like to explore and experience the wide range of culinary delights that Worcester and the surrounding area has to offer. Whether you’re looking to try out new cuisines or just meet new people whilst enjoying a delicious (hopefully) meal, this is the group for you.

Members must be aged 20 – 55, and please ensure that you are identifiable from your profile picture. Attendee numbers will usually be 6 people per event, possibly rising to 8 or 10 depending on the location. But please only join an event if you are definitely planning on going.

Be there or be hungry!

Upcoming events with spots available:

Origin Restaurant & Bar - Wednesday 16th December 7:30pm - Authentic Afro Caribbean Cuisine! - Could up the attendee number to 10, just need to speak in person with Chef Dassy first.

NEW: Birmingham Fine Dining ages 30 - 40. A new group started by a member or ours, that will explore the exciting fine dining scene in and around Birmingham.

Club Rules

Members must be younger than 56. I apologise if this sounds harsh, but this group was set up to give those younger a chance to meet new people and try Worcestershire’s best eateries.
There are dining groups in the local area that are available exclusively for people aged 50 or over, but not so for those younger, hence the creation of this group.

Depending on the event, attendee and waitlist numbers, I may message you before the restaurant reservation is made to confirm your attendance, and afterwards with the reservation name and/or reference. As you can imagine, communication is key when organising such events.
Therefore if I do message you before an event to confirm your attendance I will need a reply in a timely fashion otherwise you will probably be removed.
These events are not hikes, pub crawls or social events in which you can put your name down to attend and if you didn’t show up there would be no consequences.
Time wasters, no-shows, fake profiles etc etc, will not be tolerated and will be removed from the group.

This is not a dating club, it's a dining club. If however romantic relationships do flourish mutually within members then that is obviously fine. BUT unwanted and inappropriate communication towards other members will not be tolerated both during and outside events.

These rules are due to limited spaces and the need to book reservations, but most importantly for the consideration of other members and the establishments that we will be attending.

Origin Restaurant & Bar - Afro Caribbean Cuisine

Origin Restaurant & Bar - Afro Caribbean Cuisine

Origin Restaurant and Bar, 22 Foregate St, Worcester WR1 1DN, UK, Worcester, GB

The cosmopolitan culinary cruise continues to the Caribbean and Africa with Origin Restaurant & Bar on Forgate Street.
Owner Chef Dassy has created a vibrant, authentic and immersive Afro-Caribbean dining experience for us to enjoy, right here in the heart of Worcester.

Opening its doors in 2024, Origin brings bold, rich flavours from the Caribbean and Africa with a menu blending traditional recipes and modern twists. All dishes are made from fresh with seasonal ingredients infused with bold spices using time-honoured cooking methods.

Origin's menu includes many classic Afro-Caribbean dishes such as Jerk Chicken, Curried Goat, Oxtail and Jollof Rice.
For rum enthusiasts, Origin's extensive selection offers a deep dive into the history and diversity of this beloved spirit.
Also on the menu is an array of refreshing cocktails, mocktails, wines and beers, along with an assortment of delectable desserts to finish off the night in the warm and inviting atmosphere of Origin Restaurant & Bar.

Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.9 on Tripadvisor, Chef Dassy has used her extensive passion, knowledge and experience to establish Origin as one the highest rated restaurants in Worcestershire.

Could possibly up the attendee numbers if the demand is there.
