Speed Dating Putney

Is it a village? Is it a town? Is it simply an urban riverside enclave? The truth is, Putney is all of these things. And speed dating in Putney is equally dynamic.

Why Speed Dating in Putney?

Putney has long been known as a riverside retreat for the upper middle-class family. But in recent year a new group of young fun seeking professionals have moved in, changing the bar scene significantly over the last decade or so. Putney now has a vibrant nightlife and some venues that are, in our view, perfect for speed dating. We know a lot of people that fit our target customer profile live in the Putney area and that's why we're coming to town.

Speed Daters in Putney can expect to rub shoulders with successful young professional twenty and thirty something's. Think a more relaxed version of Clapham with its own clear identity. We're very excited to be coming to town.

And Putney Speed Dating Venues?

Speed Dating venues in Putney tend to be small to mid-size wonderfully run wine bars that won't have you calling the boss for an advance, or a classic room in a gastro pub hidden away just off the High Street. Our venue, the wonderful Dukes Head overlooking The River Thames simply couldn't be better suited for speed dating. We hire their private Dukes Rowing Club for our events and we love it there.

Who will I meet Speed Dating in Putney?

Putney has its fair share of expats, locally grown returnees and a few wanderers from North of the river, particularly Fulham, Shepherds Bush and from the opposite direction in the Barnes and Richmond. It's not cheap to live in Putney so you can expect to meet successful, good looking and eligible people.

Speed Daters in Putney are generally mid 20's to early-mid 30's with a good disposable income and a wonderful approach to socialising. And if it helps, it's a rugby rather than Football vibe here despite the close proximity of Stamford Bridge and Craven Cottage. In other words, folks you'd happily sit next to in the most heated of moments.

In short, it's a young relaxed and up for it crowd who don't mind having a few drinks and happy to buy the next round to keep the party going.

Oh relax. Expect a hardworking and professional crowd who take their social life as seriously as their work. An engaged speed dating crowd who'll happily shout you a drink and listen to your tales of backpacking around SE Asia in venues that are efficient and friendly as if staffed solely by antipodean bar staff. And aren't afraid to stay out late if the occasion calls.

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.

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 girl.
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. 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!
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.
 

And that's it. Simple? Yes. Fun? Most definitely. Great way to meet your perfect match? Without a doubt so book an event now and find out why the dating craze that started a decade ago is still going strong.
