OP. Not a large company. Already connected to a dozen people on LinkedIn.

That’s not what PP meant. LinkedIn is a connection not active networking unless you use it that way.

Don’t go.

Nope

My small company is pretty low key so I would probably go. Of course, I'm just a little worker bee; it might be a "bigger" deal for someone higher.

I will almost never turn down free food or drink.

Go if need networking.

I wouldn’t go. Say you have a conflict.

No way in that situation

Will you need these people for networking in the future?

Already resigned and will be there through mid January. Organization has experienced substantial turnover in the last year for a variety of reasons. Like anytime someone quits , a few people wish you good luck and others stop talking to you. Just seems kind of uncomfortable to go, especially when the restaurant is a almost 40 miles from my house.
