Couples or groups of friends who constantly argue about where to eat will find solace in a new restaurant in Helsinki, Finland. Take In, a new pop-up dining concept, will allow customers to BYOF: Bring your own food.

 

Patrons can place orders and pay using a Scandinavian mobile app called Wolp, which features 20 different local restaurants. Wolp charges no additional fees to deliver the food to the co-eating space that seats up to 50 diners.

 

Take In does not sell its own food or have a kitchen, but the restaurant provides cutlery and napkins, a full-service bar and a wait staff on hand to deliver the delivered food to guests and help with any other services.

 

The founders behind the idea hope to make the space a veritable social living room for solo diners or groups. Rather than staying inside on the sofa and ordering takeout food or delivery, only to enjoy the meal while aimlessly starting at a television screen, solo diners can mingle with others on a couch surrounded by like-minded food lovers through this eat-in method.

 

The take-in pop-up restaurant has been open in the Finnish capital since November, and will continue to serve solo and undecided diners until April 2.
