lunch meeting

Business meal gathering

A lunch meeting is a business meeting conducted over a midday meal, typically at a restaurant.

It combines professional discussion with the social lubrication of sharing food: Let's schedule a lunch meeting to go over the proposal.

The format suggests something less formal than a conference room but more purposeful than a casual lunch with colleagues.
