The Basics - How does Speed Dating work? |
| |
It’s very simple. You will talk to your date for a set period of time (e.g. 3 minutes), enough time for you to figure out if you’d like to meet him/her again. What you talk about is up to you (but we may give you some tips and challenges along the way, just for fun)! At the end of time, you then move on to your next date. You will be given a "score card" in which you keep track of who you have met, and for each date you simply mark the form with a “yes” or a “no” if you’d like to meet that person again. At the end of the night, you return this form. Within a few days, we will give you contact details for all your “matches” – where both you and your date marked “yes” for each other. After that it’s up to you!

|
How long do I talk to each date? |
| |
This varies from event to event, so please read the details of the event you are thinking of attending - there will be a description of how you will meet each date. Too short? Too long? You’ll find out for yourself!

What is a food and dating night? |
| |
At a food and dating night, you have the chance to meet plenty of singles like yourself, but over the course of multi course menu. A combination of great food and great company!
Here's how it works:
Each course of food will be served to the table of 6 or 8 (evenly split between men and women). And at the end of each course, the men will move on the next table - ensuring everyone will have the chance to meet plenty of eligible singles as you dine!

|
|
What is the success rate of Speed Dating? |
| |
Speed dating has a successful track record. Typically events have a strike rate of between 2 and 3 matches (per person), although it is not uncommon to sometimes get a few more!
|
|
What are good topics to talk about? |
| |
It really depends on what you like talking about, but it’s worth trying a few different approaches – we may give you some suggestions and/or challenges along the way. But the best advice is just be yourself!
|
|
What happens at the end of the night? |
| |
You return your "score card", where you have marked who you would like to meet again. We will then go through the forms and see who your matches are. We will then email you the contact details of your matches.
At the end of the night the party will continue with the tunes carrying on until closing time. On Friday nights Aubars stays open til late, with music and DJs on two levels.
|
|
What happens when I arrive at the start of the night? |
| |
When you arrive, there are just a couple of simple things you need to do. We will give you your ""score card", which you need to fill out with your contact details for your matches (either your email and/or phone number). The forms will also explain how the night will run, in terms of where you start, and how you meet all your dates. At the end of the night you need to be sure to return these forms (don't worry, we'll remind you)! But it's all very simple, you'll see! We will be there to answer any questions you may have!
