About this meeting

The Friday edition of City Lunch meets at 12.30pm at the Artizan Street Library & Community Centre, 1 Artizan Street, and lasts an hour - a way to close out the working week steady before the weekend starts. Like its Monday and Wednesday sister meetings at the same venue, it is a closed meeting: reserved for people who have a desire to stop drinking, or who are beginning to wonder, which very much includes first-timers. Those attending in a supporting or professional capacity should pick an open meeting instead. The community centre is wheelchair accessible. There is nothing to pay, no list and no booking; you can decide at noon and still make it.

Common questions

Is this meeting suitable for a first visit to AA?

Yes. Although it is a closed meeting, that only means it is for people with a desire to stop drinking - newcomers are the most welcome people in the room.

Are there other lunchtime meetings at this venue?

Yes, City Lunch also meets at 12.30pm on Mondays and Wednesdays at the Artizan Street Library & Community Centre.

Do I need to book or pay anything?

No. It is free, with no booking - just arrive at 1 Artizan Street before 12.30pm on a Friday. The venue is wheelchair accessible.
