I would definitely attend lunch meetups and I LOVE this idea!
I feel the exact same way about after work Meetups. I am someone who starts my work day at 7:30am(which is pretty early for most devs) so I definitely hate having to stay downtown until 8pm or later.
I'm in the same boat, I start my workday at 6:30am so I don't usually have an interest in hanging around or leaving and coming back. I also go to bed at 9:00 and get stingy about my sleep :)
I've been places that have done "lunch & learn" meetings every week and it was great. We used to do them where I am now, but died some time ago. Let's bring it back!
You are speaking my language! I'm in bed by 9 and asleep before 10!
We actually have had a couple inner company lunch and learn events. Expanding them to be more like a Meetup and include others would be fun and probably not too hard since our office is right downtown Chicago.
