If I were doing it, I'd pick someplace like Luigi's Pizza on Crowsnest (if the food is good and if it's a popular place).This looks good because the tables can be pulled together and most people like pizza (a plus if there is beer and wine there too).I'd ask Luigi if he minded if there was a gathering there, and I'd pick a slow time for about 90 minutes maximum, to help ensure there would be enough seating and that it would be relatively quiet inside.I'd also encourage the attendee's to order some pizza or other food or drinks (because Luigi has to make a buck too).As far as the itinerary for the meet, it could be, open discussion meet and greet, or more structured with some type of presentation.And if you have any trouble speaking Italian here's a quick tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

However, for entrepreneurial, independent investors among the Bigger Pockets community, we believe there is opportunity to be found in other segments of retail properties that are eCommerce resistant, such as neighborhood strip centers that offer services which can’t easily be replicated online such as hair & nail salons, fast food, medical offices, etc.  

One of their package even allows you to just give them the tenant's email.

Most food servers, exotic dancers, and bar tenders, have very minimal 'base' income, it's mostly tip income, and a LOT of the time it's under the table money that the person does not voluntarily report to the IRS and pay taxes on.So, not a solution for you today.

If it means full service, like daily laundry service, food prep, transportation etc that would push you into Schedule E territory.
