A 5k Walk Ruined by Filipino Food
About this Event
Welcome to Barkada London 🌏 - barkada means your close-knit friends, and that's what we're building. A community for anyone in London who wants to make new friends through food! You don't have to be Filipino, or Asian, or know what ube is- just an empty belly and a willingness to meet new people!
Every walk stops somewhere new. This one's Filipino 🇵🇭. The next ones we'll continue to wander across Asian spots.
The route (~5km, about 6,000 steps, flat)
📍 11:00 Lincoln's Inn Fields (tube: Holborn)
🌳 11:20 Walk through Bloomsbury and Fitzrovia into Soho. Break at Russell Square.
🥐 12:00 Panadera, Hopkins Street, Soho.
🚶 12:30 Through Mayfair and Berkeley Square.
🧺 13:00 Green Park. Sit on the grass, eat, stay as long as we like.
✌️ 14:00 Done.
Who is it for
As long as you're of legal age but ideally anyone in the age range of 18-25.
Most people are coming alone, so don't feel odd about it. Not a dating thing, not a cliquey thing. If you're nervous, so am I, and I'm the one running it 😜🔫.

Now onto the boring part which Claude happily typed out for me: terms and condition
By signing up to this event, you agree that:
1. Photos and video. I take photos and short videos during the walk and post them on @barkada.ldn and other Barkada London channels. If you'd rather not appear, send me a message.
2. You're taking part at your own risk. This is an informal social walk, not a guided tour, a fitness class or an organised sporting event. You're responsible for your own decisions on the day, including crossing roads safely and looking after yourself in public spaces.
3. You're fit enough to take part. The route is around ~5km on pavements and park paths, at a relaxed pace, over roughly three hours. Please don't come if you're unwell, and let me know beforehand if you have a health condition I should be aware of.
4. Food is bought by you, from independent shops. I don't prepare, handle or supply any of the food. I can't take responsibility for allergens, ingredients or how anything is made. If you have allergies or dietary requirements, please check directly with the shop before you order.
5. Your belongings are your own responsibility. I can't be responsible for anything lost, damaged or stolen during the event.
6. You're 18 or over. This event is for over-18s only.
7. You'll treat everyone with respect. This is a friendly, platonic community event. Harassment, discrimination or making anyone uncomfortable isn't on, and I may ask someone to leave the group if it happens.
8. You'll let me know if you leave early. If you decide to head off partway through, just tell me so I'm not looking for you.
9. Plans may change. I may need to change the route, timings or meeting point, or cancel the event, for weather, safety, or anything outside my control. I'll let you know as early as I can via Eventbrite and the group chat.
10. Your details. I'll use the contact details you give at booking to send you information about this walk, and about future Barkada London events if you've opted in. I won't share them with anyone else.
11. If you can't make it, please tell me so I can offer your spot to someone on the waitlist.
