met up

Convened in person

Met up is the past tense of meet up, meaning to gather or rendezvous with someone, usually by prior arrangement.

It emphasizes the intentional, social nature of the encounter rather than a chance meeting.

We met up for coffee after work.

I finally met up with my old college roommate last weekend.

The phrase suggests informality and is common in casual speech.
