Munches typically happen at restaurants, coffee shops, or food courts. People get together and talk. Some of the people don't know any of the other participants, while others know many.
Many munches happen after ordinary working hours, and people come directly from the office dressed in work clothes. Other people work different hours and come dressed in casual clothes. Lots of people dress pretty normally--there's a little more black, and there's always that one guy who hasn't bathed in a week and whose shirt could stand on its own. Sometimes there are people who have a punky, gothic, alternative, or earthy/hippy style, especially in munches populated by people in their 20s and 30s.
People talk. Some people flirt, with varying degrees of skill. Often people don't talk about kink itself, although bad wordplay and jokes about kink are encouraged when discussing non-kinky topics. Non-kinky topics, aside from the obvious (the weather, the local sports team) include science fiction and polytheistic religion with more frequency than most gatherings.
Oh--kindly don't ask people what they do for a living or where exactly they live, and try to come up with a question other than that as an introductory question, seeing as those are regarded as quite acceptable topics at most similar gatherings.
