  Atmosphere was lovely, host was very welcoming. Maybe could have had one break for five minutes just to get a drink or go to the toilet.

  I found it quite distracting as the tables were very close together and it got quite noisy. There were a couple of guys I couldnt hear hardly at all. Also the host didnt mention we could write notes in the app so I honestly couldnt remember who half the people were by today, much prefer having a sheet in front of me as other events do.

  Great venue- lovely feel and perfect size for the number of people. Would have been nice to have had a break part-way through to go for a wee! Wendy was lovely, very welcoming and did a super job of hosting! Thank you Wendy! Happy for you to use as a sound bite for promo but please use under ‘K’ and not my full name! Also, if video/photos taken, I don’t wish for you to include my image please. Thank you.

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating London lies in its no-nonsense approach. You take an equal number of single girls and guys, put them in a room and give them a few minutes to chat with every other member of the opposite sex.

When you get there

Original speed dating events in London normally begin at 7.30pm. You will need to register with our hosts and to begin with they will issue you with a score sheet. This will help you to keep track of the singles that you would like to meet again and perhaps go on a date with. After a short period of mingling, your host for the evening who will run through detailed instructions and give you your starting position if you are a guy or table for the event if you are a girl.

Meet & Mingle

A London speed dating event is split into two halves, each lasting around an hour, there will be an interval at half time of about 15 minutes for speed dating London. You will have between 4 and 5 minutes with each person, after which you need to tick a box on your score sheet - "yes, I would like to meet this person again" or "no. Thanks but no thanks". Or "friend" if you'd like to get to know them platonically. Make sure that you do this after each date to keep track. Afterwards there is an opportunity for everyone to meet and mingle informally - this is often where the real action begins, so make sure you don't disappear too quickly!

Complete your score sheet

After the event you simply tick who you liked on the Original Dating website and the site works about your matches automatically. If the dates you have ticked as a "yes" have reciprocated you have a match. You will be able to view the first names and message them via our site online without revealing your email address until you are ready to. You'll be having proper first dates in no time.
