About Dinner Dating Parties in Bath

Dinner Dating is a pleasant and sophisticated way of meeting other single people in Bath through either dinners at restaurants or clubs. While they are generally a little more expensive, they make an excellent way to enjoy a great night out, meeting new people in a relaxed atmosphere.

How Dinner Dating Works

The typical venue is a popular restaurant in or near Bath town centre.  The usual starting time is around 8pm, but guests are welcome to arrive earlier for a drink.  The check in formalities are minimal, so there is no problem if guests ever need to arrive slightly late, due to work or travel delays. The price usually includes a complimentary drink on arrival to give everyone the chance to get to know each other. The host or hostess will make the necessary introductions and as you walk into the restaurant, the restaurant staff will direct guests to the dinner dating party.  You will be made to feel welcome and part of the group from the moment you join the event.

Getting started

Once all the guests have arrived, everyone takes their places around the table. Everybody has a place reserved for them and a place card with their name printed on it. Males and females will be placed to sit next to each other around the table wherever possible, enabling new friendships to develop naturally during the evening.

The Meal

The meal typically consists of 3 courses with a coffee to follow but it does vary from restaurant to restaurant, according to the quality and style of food being served. Extremely good value is the main priority wherever the dinner dating is taking place and close attention is paid to all the little details that go towards making your evening an enjoyable one.

Do please bear in mind that the cost of the food is only part of the cost of the evening. Guests are attending largely to meet people and the event will have been extensively advertised to ensure that this happens. It is a hosted event and costs are also incurred in this aspect.

It’s not the same as just turning up at the restaurant and buying a meal alone or in a small group. An awful lot of time and trouble has been put into arranging the evening long before you get to the restaurant.

The Format

Perhaps the best aspect of dinner dating events in Bath is to make new friends of both sexes and maybe even find that perfect partner. This is facilitated by the guys moving around the table periodically and spending a little time (usually one course) near each of the ladies during the evening. Dinner Dating Parties carry no guarantee of equal numbers of men and women – bookings are taken as they happen but it is a great way of meeting the opposite sex and making lots of new friends. It’s also a great night out in itself, in a nice restaurant in Bath.
