TableWith is a subscription-based platform that makes it easy—and fun—to host or join a cookbook club. Whether you love to cook, want to explore new cuisines, or simply enjoy gathering with friends, we handle the details so you can focus on connection. From monthly cookbook picks to planning and inspiration, TableWith brings people together around the table for good food and even better company.
-
TableWith takes the guesswork out of starting or joining a cookbook club and makes it easy to gather with friends over great food. Once you sign up, you can either start your own club or join an existing one. Each month, we feature a thoughtfully selected cookbook and provide you with everything you need to participate—pre-selected recipes, grocery lists, hosting tips, event details, and more. We’ll also take care of organizing the schedule, rotating hosts, and sending reminders so no one has to play planner. Whether you’re hosting or attending, all you have to do is show up with a dish and an appetite.
You’ll also have access to exclusive content from cookbook authors, curated product recommendations, and a supportive community of fellow food lovers. TableWith is all about creating meaningful connections, trying new recipes, and making it easy to share meals with people you love—no stress, just good food and great company.
-
Definitely. Each club has its own private community board where members can share photos, tips, and reflections. Plus, you can connect with the larger TableWith community on our public board to trade inspiration and ideas with fellow food lovers nationwide.

Nope! Hosting rotates monthly, and if you’re selected but can’t host, you can simply skip that month and we’ll pass it on to the next person. It’s all about keeping things flexible and enjoyable.
-
Hosting is all about what feels right for you. You can go all out with a beautiful tablescape—our blog and shop are full of inspiration, tips, and tricks to help you set the scene. Or you can keep it simple: cook your dish, open the door, and let the gathering unfold. Whether it’s styled to the nines or totally casual, what matters most is bringing people together. Hosting should feel joyful, never stressful.
-
No problem at all. You can add any dietary needs to your profile, and your club will be able to see them when planning gatherings. Plus, all recipes are clearly labeled, so it’s easy to find something that works for you.
-
We feature newly released cookbooks that showcase a vibrant mix of cuisines, cooking styles, and voices. From beloved staples to bold new flavors, our selections are curated to help you discover inspiring dishes and diverse authors from around the world. We prioritize accessibility, creativity, and a sense of community—so every pick brings something fresh to your table.
-
We always encourage supporting the authors we feature, but membership includes access to select recipes from the book each month, so you can fully participate even if you don’t purchase the full title.
-
We announce the upcoming cookbook on the first Monday of the month prior—giving you plenty of time to pre-order the book (if you choose) and get excited for what’s ahead.
