Board game cafes are the evening version of this and they exist almost everywhere now.

Adding the one that solved Saturdays for me: a board game cafe. Scheduled, sober by default, and the game removes the need to make conversation before you are comfortable making conversation.
It is the same mechanism as the kitchen point. You are doing a thing next to someone rather than talking at them.
