How the night works
Speed Dating with a Twist is built so you never have to sit through an awkward silence. You're welcomed into a reserved area at a smart City bar, then the format does the heavy lifting: balanced numbers, short five-minute dates, and a conversation card on every table to get the chat going from the moment you sit down.
- 1
Arrive and check in
Get there by 7:15pm, grab a drink and settle into the reserved area before the dates begin at 7:30pm.
- 2
Take your seat
Ladies stay seated; gentlemen rotate, so you meet a new person every few minutes without losing your spot.
- 3
Five minutes, one card
Each date lasts about five minutes, with conversation-starter cards on the table if you want a prompt to break the ice.
- 4
Mark your match card
Over the night you note who you'd like to see again on your match card — you'll meet up to 15 people, so jot as you go.
- 5
Hand it in
Submit your match card at the end. There's no awkward public reveal at the table.
- 6
Results next day
Where two people pick each other, The Matchup emails your mutual matches the following day — and the bar stays open after.
The venue & getting there
The venue
The Otherist sits at 111 Old Broad Street in the heart of the City — a smart, characterful spot with a reserved area for the night, so you arrive expected rather than hunting for the group in a packed bar.
Getting there
Old Broad Street is in EC2, about a three-minute walk from Liverpool Street and a short stroll from Bank, Moorgate and Bishopsgate. Liverpool Street puts the Elizabeth line, the Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines, National Rail and the Overground all within a few minutes — so getting home afterwards is easy in any direction.
Do the night for less
Verified codes that cut the cost of the night
A night out adds up — the ticket, the ride there, the round at the bar. Here's the HonestCodes part: every code below is verified against the brand's own terms, so you can knock real money off the evening. (New customers only, as the programmes require — your price at the event is unaffected.)
Revolut referral code
Splitting the bar tab with someone you matched? Revolut splits bills instantly — and the sign-up referral is real money in your account.
Monzo referral code
Monzo's Split the Bill makes the after-dates round painless, and the referral pays you for opening an account.
Lime referral code
Skip the cab and hop on a Lime e-bike to the venue — a new-rider referral credit covers part of the ride.
Voi referral code
A Voi e-scooter is a quick, cheap hop across the City — new riders get referral credit to get there for less.
How to win at speed dating
- Read “smart casual” as put-together, not formal — a clean shirt or a nice top and shoes you can stand in. Looking like you made an effort lands in a five-minute first impression.
- Have three openers ready; you'll use them up to 15 times. “What's been the best part of your week?” beats “so, what do you do?” every time.
- Use the conversation cards — they exist to skip the dull CV exchange and get to something real. Lead with the card, then follow the tangent.
- Take one or two words of notes between dates (“green coat, loves Italy”) so your match card isn't a panicked blank at the end.
- Ask, then actually listen. The most memorable person in the room is the curious one, not the one who talks most.
- Match generously — a tick is permission to find out more, not a proposal. You can always say no to a coffee later.
