MAYBERRY SUPPER CLUB
A place where strangers who might never meet come together for a memorable, one-time social event to share a chef-prepared meal and conversation
A Culinary Experience
Food unites us by amplifying laughter, making conversation flow, and revealing the commonalities that bond us. Each time food is the centerpiece of a social event, we honor its soul-satisfying power to bring people together.
However, the real magic happens when all the components of an event are carefully orchestrated to maximize its culinary and social impact. This is when an meal truly becomes a culinary experience.
Mayberry Supper Club is a culinary experience that celebrates each element of what makes an event grand: a unique location, a festive atmosphere, a daring menu, food and drink fit for foodies, and a meeting of old and new friends. Mayberry Supper Club combines these features to create the most esteemed gastronomic event series ever to be hosted in the Central Susquehanna Valley.
People who love to eat are always the best people.
