  This was a fun event and a great way to meet new people. The place got a bit loud though and I felt like I was shouting when I was talking to someone else. It was interesting to hear about other people's likes and interests.

  Good turnout and good conversations but the attractiveness of the women was quite low as a whole. There were quite a few who clearly didn't have a healthy lifestyle. Far from it.

  Well run, lovely venue. Time always seems too short but nicely paced. Only downside was quite noisy and I had trouble hearing a few people

  Interesting platter of ppl, wish there was an escape strategy for conversations you didn’t want to be a part of, and an after party mixer would be nice!

  The event was enjoyable overall but it would have been good to have a 5-10 minute break around halfway through.

  Nice group of people, unfortunately quite a few women come from other side of London, and there were some friendly men there too who were good company and happy to chat.

  I loved the event but 4 minutes is a little too short but that is the only reason I gave it 4 stars

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.
