Step Inside Winston-Salem’s Most Mysterious Dining Experience—The Robert Hall Secret Supper Society

There is something undeniably magical about a night that feels like it was made just for you—where the food is unforgettable, the performances transport you, and the company reminds you what it means to be fully present. That’s exactly what the Robert Hall Secret Supper Society set out to create when it launched in February 2023.

Two years later, it’s clear that the magic is still alive and well. 

“We are in our third year of the Robert Hall Secret Supper Society and one of the most exciting aspects to me is that we are constantly meeting new people who are looking to grow their friend groups and community,” said Christy Cox Spencer, Robert Hall’s Proprietor.  “I absolutely love that we get to be a conduit for that experience.”

 

 

Where Culinary Creativity Meets Community

The Robert Hall Secret Supper Society isn’t your typical dinner out. It’s a members-only experience that brings together some of Winston-Salem’s most talented chefs, imaginative entertainers, and lovers of fine dining. Each supper is a carefully curated event that encourages guests to slow down and savor everything the night has to offer.

Rooted in the nostalgic charm of supper clubs from the 1930s and 1940s, the Secret Supper Society takes inspiration from a time when dining was more than just a meal. Yesteryear’s supper clubs were more than restaurants—they were social sanctuaries, offering elegance, entertainment, and a sense of belonging. The Secret Supper Society brings that spirit into the present, fusing old-school glamour with modern culinary creativity.

 

A Platform for Local Talent

Beyond the guest experience, the Secret Supper Society is also a platform for chefs to push boundaries and showcase their skills. Each event is a new opportunity to experiment, collaborate, and surprise. The Society proudly partners with Project Short Street—a shared-use kitchen that supports a thriving community of over 70 chefs, caterers, and food entrepreneurs. Thanks to the vision of Lisa McMullen and her team, this collaboration gives Winston-Salem’s culinary talent the tools they need to shine.

 

What to Expect from A Society Event

Last year, the Robert Hall Secret Supper Society hosted five individual events:

  • The Pride & Prejudinner: A four-course seated dinner accompanied by vignettes of a theatrical adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice” by The Little Theatre of Winston-Salem 
  • Bourbon Curious: An exclusive bourbon tasting with Winston-Salem’s Board Branch Distillery.
  • Shag Dancin’ & Shrimp Boiln’: A low country boil paired with live Carolina Beach music and shag dancing. 
  • A Taste of Portugal: A Portuguese-inspired four-course meal accompanied by a sampling of carefully curated Portuguese wines. 
  • The Casino Royal: A glamorous James Bond-inspired evening filled with high-stakes games, shaken martinis, and exquisite cuisine—all in support of Family Services, Inc. 

“The goal of the Robert Hall Secret Supper Society is to offer a unique and brand new experience every eight to ten weeks—no two events will be the same,” said Christy. “We try not to give away too much detail about upcoming dinners to our members, as themes are unexpected and each one is different. We always want our members to anticipate the next event and be surprised when they walk through the door.”

 

 

How to Join the Secret Supper Society

Interested in becoming a member? There are two membership tiers to choose from: a Basic membership for $25/year or a Premium membership for $50/year. Both levels unlock access to all event invitations, with tickets ranging from $65 to $150 depending on the experience. Premium members enjoy a few extra perks, like early registration and access to exclusive pre-event receptions.

Membership is flexible, too. Once you join, you can purchase as many event tickets as you’d like—even for friends who aren’t members. Whether you’re flying solo, planning a date night, or gathering a group, the Secret Supper Society welcomes anyone who values a one-of-a-kind night out.

 

More Than a Meal

“I love watching the faces of our guests as they look around the room and take in the flavor of the event,” said Teresa Miller, Robert Hall’s Hospitality and Design Coordinator. “I also like getting to know our members so I try to strike up a conversation or two with someone I haven’t had the pleasure of talking to at past events.”

At its heart, the Robert Hall Secret Supper Society is about more than good food and great company. It’s about building a community that embraces intentional living—people who dress up for dinner, who look forward to meaningful experiences, and who believe that a memorable night is worth investing in.

If that sounds like your kind of vibe, consider this your official invitation. For more information or to join, visit www.RobertHallSecretSupperSociety.com or reach out to Event Manager Kristopher Walter at kristopher.walter@roberthallwsnc.com.
