If one makes kiddush and its not followed by a meal the Michaber (Siman 273:3) rules that he is not yotzie kiddush. My question is; does he mean that he is not yotzie even on a biblical level? Or that since many rishonim say kiddush on a biblical level need be only "words", its only the rabbinic level of kiddush that he is missing. [Nafka mina would be regarding discharging someone else's obligation]

  • Also worth considering if his kiddush was a bracha levatala. Maybe it's just he has an obligation to do it a second time.

    Kiddush bimakom seuda is rabbinic. In fact many achronim/reushonim hold youre yotza kiddush deoraisa in davening. And rabbi akiva Eiger holds you're yotza deoraisa just by saying good shabbos.
