Attention: Tea Lovers of East Bay. Finally, a group in the East Bay that cares about tea, pastries, coffee, and other things. We are a group of rebels who do not take tea lightly; we could... but we don't! This group is about enjoying a good cup of tea in the company of others who appreciate a good cup of tea. We stand or sit for freedom and pastries, with a good cup of tea (or coffee) in our hands, in good company. There may also be conversations, preferably, about nothing in particular.

Laid Back Lively Ladies--it's a bit of a contradiction, isn't it? But it couldn't be more perfect. Most women have incredibly diverse interests--enjoying an occasional night on the town but also loving a casual movie night or a girl’s night in. This group is for women for whatever reason have looked around and realized, “Hm--I don’t have many girlfriends anymore.” Perhaps you are in this funny stage between college and marriage, or post-divorce. Or maybe through the years your friendships ha …

We are relaxed, low-maintenance, no drama ladies who are more on the introverted side. This is a LOW-KEY, KICK-BACK GROUP! Our goal is to meet new girlfriends, have fun and (if we're fortunate enough) make long …

The city has a fun culture of cool, vibrant young professionals.  It's easy to find happy hours any day of the week, with interesting, fun, friendly people everywhere. Now that I am spending time in the Tri-Valley area, I was wondering where the young professionals go after work to socialize, de-stress, and meet new friends. I figured I would start a meetup, and hope to make some new friends in the process - people to hang with after work, grab a bite, get a drink, see a movie, get some coffee.. …

There are several Meetup book clubs in the East Bay, but many of them are specialized (e.g., women-only, we only read such-and-such books, etc.), or their meetings fill to capacity so fast that I never get a chance to rsvp - so I decided to start this one. I previously participated in a fantastic book club in Chicago, which gave me the opportunity to read some great books that I probably wouldn't have found on my own. I hope to continue that trend here! This is a mixed-gender book club for anyon …

Urbandictionary defines an ABCD as "an 'American Born Confused Desi,' which is a derogatory term used for Indians, Pakistanis, Bengladeshis (South Asians) who have grown up in the United States and who act 'American' (as stupid as that sounds)." But really, it doesn't have to be derogatory. We're fortunate enough to have the best of two worlds. While there are plenty of desi meetup groups here in the the bay area, there seems to be a void for a legit ABCD group. So, if you're an American (or eve …
