About the event

*Brand New Saturday event*

Saturday nights are perfect for speed dating in The West End & we're excited to be back in the heart of town.

Spend the evening with us as we take over the exclusive private bar at our fantastic new venue, The Finery.

You’ll meet typically 15-20 people during this event, each one for just four minutes. The perfect length of time to decide if you’d like to see someone again and not too long if you don’t. It’s a simple and exciting way to meet a lot of people in one fun night.

The next day you'll find out who you mutually matched with via our website. You'll get in touch again via our private messaging system and you'll be meeting again for real dates in no time.

Our venue is moments from Oxford Circus Station, a great spot if you want to stay on for drinks or make a night of it at the bars and clubs of Soho.

  Well organised, if one criticism the date length was slightly too short. Could do with being ever so slightly longer.

  The people were lovely. It was a relaxed atmosphere. There weren't as many men as women despite it being sold out for men but not women. People went for drinks to another bar after which was really nice and unexpected.

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.
