Find food buddies near you
Some dishes are just better shared. A big thali, a plate of momos, a new restaurant menu you want to try properly. Eating out alone is fine, but finding foodie friends near me who actually want to go is harder than it sounds. GoMate helps you find food buddies who are already planning a meal nearby.
Browse plans for street food runs, food walks and weekend dinners, or host your own with a time and a place. Request to join, the host approves, and you all coordinate in a group chat. It is a simple way to find people to eat out with and try new restaurants with people who love food as much as you.

How it works
- 1
Find food plans near you, or host one with the dish, the place, the time and an idea of the budget.
- 2
Send a request to join. The host approves members, so the table size and group stay right.
- 3
Chat with the group to sort the order and timing, then meet and eat together.
Stay safe. Meet at the restaurant or a public spot rather than sharing a ride with people you just met. GoMate members are selfie-checked, and you can report or block anyone.

How can I find people to eat out with?
On GoMate, people post food plans like street food walks or dinners. Browse plans nearby, request to join, and the host approves who comes. You can also host your own plan in about a minute and let others request to join you.
Who pays for the food?
Usually everyone pays for their own share, but that is up to the group. Hosts often mention the rough budget or a split-the-bill plan in the description, and you can clear it up in the group chat before meeting.
Can I join a food plan with only women?
Yes. Hosts can mark a plan for everyone, women only or men only. If you prefer a women-only group, look for plans marked that way or host one yourself and approve the members who join.
