Really nice event with a good mix of people from different backgrounds. The venue was a little warm but otherwise it was good and I got a coffee date out of it 😊
Ross
Host was good but the venue was totally inappropriate to host that many people. Tiny bar, nobody could move, incredibly warm and it took ages for people to figure out where to go
Diana
The crowd was a pleasantly good turn out, however, the venue was a bit too small to host all the guests. The event itself was fun and interesting, but it was a bit disorganized and chaotic, wish there was a bit more structure.
Ed
It's probably no fault of the host but the person I was matched with couldn't be found. The venue was exciting and a good conversation starter to watch the drinks being made however the music was loud which hampered chat.
Alistair
Good friendly vibe, match not always accurate, questionnaire maybe abit forward for a start up, event attracted many age groups.
Gavin
Give 4 matches not just one. You had a 4 group system after all use it. Music needs to be off as talking over it was hard.
Drew
It was a good crowd of people willing to socialise. The matching aspects of it seemed less important than just people being willing to talk. In fact, it may have been a hindrance to the flow of the room.
Konstantina
I wish there were more questions about my interests, what I do etc. I wish there was more time to speak to other people if it didn’t click with the person you were matched with
Nathan
Overpriced and the AI matchmaker gives identical suggested questions and near identical descriptions of people's character (four people I spoke to had the same). Seems like regardless of answers the end result was the same. Wouldn't return.
K
Event was busy with just more women than men, and nice atmosphere, but I ended up getting matched with a woman in my group and we are both heterosexual so kinda defeated the point of going to the event.
Andrew
A very relaxed but well run night. Felt like I got further here in one night than in years of dating apps
John
The AI match events are the best as you get to have a vibe check with someone who should be a good match.
Suzanne
I didn't get matched but met some nice people. There were too many women ie the others didn't show up for the ticket bought for the algorithm to work.
Stephanie
The questions asked for the AI matching were terrible, literally nothing about your lifestyle, hobby’s, habits etc. all important. Was a really awkward night tbh and all the girls in my group thought the same
Megan
I had a great night! Although my AI match didn’t work out I did end up chatting and having a great night with another person who’s match also didn’t work out
Efe
It was fun meeting new people and hanging around
Adam
I usually enjoy the Thursday events, however, I was slightly disappointed. I think the questions were not the best, I think asking questions to gauge people's hobbies/interests or topics such as this would've been better, rather than the ones they used.
Ronnie
I was matched with a man despite not selecting this.
Malcolm
Interesting idea, location layout not ideal
Katie
I was matched with a friend, which works out because I’m looking for more friends, and didn’t quite click with any of the guys I chatted with.
Bobby
Honestly I thought the AI matching was just a way to get people talking. The questions were not in depth enough to be able to match you, esp when appearance and attraction play a large role in matching with someone. I would defo go to another Thursdays event though as I had a lot of fun and met a couple of ladies that I got on well with.
Samuel
They closed the event an hour early, only complaint though, I would have still gone if they changed the schedule but all the participants were under the same impression. Besides that, it was my first "proper" dating experience and It was good fun just to meet people who all had a aligned interests.
Michelle
Don’t think asking a selected amount of questions and thinking AI could match you was a good idea. Good night though
Michael
Good event but was confusing when they split you into groups rather than matching you straight away:)
Josh
Good experience, worth giving it ago. Got nothing to lose and might meet friends from it too.
Holly
Good idea, but not well executed. Room was overcrowded, the group table numbers were hard to find, and the music was too loud. So, even when I did find my group it was difficult to hear the conversation. No snacks and you had to buy your own alcohol (if there was a welcome drink, no-one in my group saw it), so it seemed an expensive ticket for what it offered.
Sues
Well organised event in a great venue. Lots of fun with a good mix of people.
John
This is a genuine revolution against the dating apps.
Chloe
No
Chloe
The event was good - nice people and I liked the grouping/matching exercise.
Ferenc
Had a great time well done for organising it
Alyssa
Fantastic event, will definitely be back
Emily
Overall, this was a really poorly organised event in a small space. For £13.50, with no drink included, this was a bit steep and there were no real thrills to this event. The questionnaire was very broad with its rating system scoring from 1-7 with no option to write down your personal preferences on what you’re truly looking for in a future partner. The people were lovely who I spoke to but no real spark. We were all completely different people in terms of our interests and hobbies. The bathroom felt like a congregation area where everyone would debrief their matches with the majority saying they didn’t enjoy it and felt really uncomfortable. I would have to say my first and probably last Thursday event was a negative experience. The space was far too small to mingle with other people and I was glad I was with my friends. We did meet a couple of new people who we got talking to which was lovely near the end of the night.
Gillian
I had a good time! Met a lot of people, had some good conversations, and got along well with my match. There was a glitch with the messages that sent out the numbers for the smaller groups before colors for the larger groups which was unfortunate. The fire alarm also went off for a few mins but we didn’t have to evacuate. Otherwise it was a fun night!
Arron
The events activity pacing could have been better. I felt there was a lot of time wasted just waiting around for the event to start. Our group was seperated by two tables with 14 males and 6 females (post match announcement) The music was too loud to hold a comfortable conversation. The venue wasn't ideal to accommodate the number of people and getting to and from an area was cumbersome.
Perrine
Fun night with friends and diverse crowd
Norbert
Fun solo friendly. Had a good time.
Tofigh
It was a big joke 😃
Tamara
I wouldn't recommend it.
Solo
Was matched with a person of the same sex when I’m not homosexual
Karen
I felt that on the evening there was little information and sadly some wrong information given which added to the confusion. There was a lot of sitting about and the event started later than planned which was disappointing. Overall I thought it was good although there was not a lot of (men) over the age of 50 at the event who were in age bracket which was disappointing.....
Louise
I went with an open mind but this was not well organised, honestly didn’t really know what was going on, had to keep asking. Have no idea what the matches were all about, I went with 5 other girls none of us matched with someone with any interests, etc. upon reading why you matched nothing even remotely sounded like us. I feel it should have been hosted in a private room. Possibly then it would have been easier to follow what was going on.
Adam
I had a good time at the event. I felt that the questions, some of them were a bit difficult to understand. I felt some of them were a bit stupid to be honest. It was annoying when the fire alarm went off due to someone vaping in the toilet. There was a technical issue aswwell with the messaging as everyone got a message but it was wrong. Then we finally got the right message and told to go to a group at a certain place in the venue. There wasn't much direction in what to do, it was just mingle with others. The girl I was matched with was nice looking, but she was arrogant didn't make much effort. I feel like some of thr questions could be such as Do you like to eat out? What music are you into? What films do you watch?
Olu
Could be better
Gemma
This is a reasonably well run event, it was a fun night, however I don’t think from the chat in the toilet that many women were happy with their matches. Maybe the age range was too wide. The event was over 18 but the age range was like 18-50. I don’t feel the questions asked were enough to determine a great match either, also anyone can buy a ticket there was no questioned asked prior, so the fresh out a 16 year relationship, with very young children and still hung up on the ex was who I was matched with - that’s not a match for me.
Amanda
Bit of a shambles, was advertised as having clues to meet your match but actually was just put in a group - which was confusing anyway as first it was declared as numbers and then as colours. Did not vibe with my match at all, really quite confused as to why we matched we were so different. Feedback from majority of females that I met was the same. Would not attend again.
Ombretta
The event was a bit disorganised and drawn out. Having people come at 7 and then wait until 9-ish to meet their match felt unnecessary. I also think that matching with only 1 person doesn't make the evening worth it. I think having 2-3 people you match with and speak with for about 15-20 minutes each would increase your chances of meeting someone you like. It would also make it less awkward after you meet one of the matches and realise you don't vibe. As it was, once you realised you and your match were not in fact "a match", you were left wandering the hall aimlessly. My friend and I didn't vibe with our matches and left about 30 minutes after they were revealed. That means we spent 2 hours "waiting" and about 15 minutes with our matches. I will not be returning, and neither will my friend.
