Networking Brunch | November 2026

The Business Social are back with another networking brunch on Wednesday 11 November, this time at The Oaks on Moor Lane in Thorpe on the Hill. It's one of a series they run around Lincoln, and they pitch it as the most relaxed networking on the scene: no set format, no forced fun, and no presentations or pitches. It's just informal conversation over food, so if you're not one for the usual networking script, this is probably more your speed.

They keep the numbers small by design, with a maximum of 25 businesses at each event, and there's no membership fee to take part. Around 60% of the room is new each time, and it tends to draw local businesses alongside visitors from outside the area, often travelling from up to a 90-minute radius. That mix is part of the appeal — you're as likely to chat with someone from just down the road as you are with someone who's come in from further afield.

If it's your first time, there's a discount off your first event, and the booking includes a hot welcome drink on arrival and a brunch. It runs from 10 am to 12 pm, so it's a mid-morning thing that doesn't eat up your whole day. Tickets start from £36.46.
