If you’re not in the UK, please be sure to join The Chatty Cafe Scheme in your country. If you already have a venue listed with us, you can login to update it here.

Why join the scheme?

By joining the Chatty Café Scheme, your venue can host a Chatter & Natter table—a simple way to encourage conversation, bring people together and help tackle loneliness in your community.

Since 2017, the scheme has grown to over 850 venues across the UK. Many tables become regular weekly meet-ups, typically attracting around 8 regular attendees and increasing footfall and repeat visits.

The £60 annual fee

The Chatty Café Scheme is a non-profit organisation. The £60 annual fee helps cover the essential costs of running and sustaining the scheme, including:

-Marketing materials (table signs, posters, leaflets and window stickers)
-Our national volunteer training and ongoing support programme
-The infrastructure needed to support venues and volunteers

Many venues find the cost is quickly recouped through increased footfall and additional spend on drinks and food.
