Success Stories πŸ’‘

Many have already found love ❀️

β€œWhen I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations

– less than zero actually.
But yup, when I walked into that bar, I saw him and went all nervous.
I wouldn’t say our first conversation was scintillating. I don’t even remember what small talk we made – maybe our jobs.
At the end of the event, I saw him sitting alone and asked whether I could sit next to him. He said he wanted to see me again and I said the same.
We are now happily and exclusively together. If I have any advice to give anyone, it would be to give speed dating a try. I was lucky to have found my person the first time around. But I had been online dating for a year with no success.

You may not find someone the first time or the 10th time, but at least these guys take the trouble to show up and put their best foot forward. They are making the effort which is more than I can say for some people on online dating sites – and that’s not even counting the sleazeballs.
– a happy attendee”

“I would like to let you know that last month,

I attended one of your speed dating nights in Hardware Lane and met the most beautiful girl. We connected and you sent our numbers to us.
We met up again the next day and have been on many dates and have spoken every day, for hours It’s been 6 weeks + and going strong.
Just wanted to let you know of one of your success stories. The future looks bright.
We recommend your speed dating nights to every single person we speak to. It was so much fun. Thank you.”

β€œI just wanted to let you know…

That I won’t been attending your next event. I had already purchased the ticket earlier… I attended the last event and had a wonderful time… after I worked up the courage to actually walk in…
I was so nervous and almost didn’t go in but I am really glad I did I have made a connection with a great guy and am looking forward to pursuing that and seeing how we go.

So thank you for all the effort in putting these events together… don’t worry about giving me a refund on the ticket, maybe you can give that to someone that rocks up on the night without a ticket as I know how hard They are to get. thanks so much again.”

Event Details

Are you ready to dive into the exciting world of speed dating for the 30-55 crowd? Welcome to the “Prime Time Matchup” at Crows Nest Hotel, where singles in their prime gather to find love and connection. Being single in the bustling Lower North Shore can be both exhilarating and challenging, with the area’s vibrant restaurant scene and picturesque harbor views serving as constant reminders of the romantic possibilities that abound.Β 

The Crows Nest Hotel, located at 1 Willoughby Rd, Crows Nest NSW 2065, is the perfect venue for our speed dating event, easily accessible by public transport – just hop on the 143 bus to Crows Nest Village. For the occasion, dress to impress with a smart casual outfit from the nearby Westfield Chatswood, striking the perfect balance between stylish and approachable. You’ll be mingling with eligible singles not just from Crows Nest, but also from neighboring North Sydney and St Leonards, creating a diverse pool of potential matches.

How It Works

As you arrive at the event, you’ll be greeted by our friendly hosts who’ll provide you with a name card and guide you through the process of scanning the QR code for our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0. This app allows you to see a list of all attendees and make your selections directly from your phone. After some initial mingling at the bar to calm those pre-date jitters, ladies will take their seats while the gentlemen rotate every 5 minutes, giving you 12 exciting mini-dates throughout the evening.Β 

The event typically runs from 7 to 9 pm, with a fun intermission featuring ice breaker games and conversation cards to keep the energy high. With an equal ratio of 20 men to 20 women, you’re guaranteed to have someone to talk to, creating a much more personal and engaging experience compared to the often frustrating world of dating apps like Tinder or Bumble.

Who You’ll Meet

The “Prime Time Matchup” crowd is a fascinating mix of professionals, divorcees, and never-married singles who’ve reached a stage in life where they know what they want. Many have focused on careers, traveled the world, or raised families, and are now ready to prioritize finding a meaningful romantic connection. These seasoned daters often frequent local hotspots like The Orpheum or Rag & Famish Hotel, seeking connections but finding the bar scene lacking. They’ve tried everything from online dating to setups by well-meaning friends, facing challenges like limited time due to busy schedules and the desire for a partner who understands the complexities of midlife romance.Β 

To make the most of your speed dating experience, be open, authentic, and remember that everyone’s in the same boat. If you hit it off with someone, why not suggest a second date at the nearby Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace? Nothing beats a classic movie night to continue getting to know each other.

The Venue

The Crows Nest Hotel, our chosen venue, is more than just a local watering hole – it’s a piece of North Shore history. Originally built in 1900 as a humble inn, it was renovated in the 1920s to its current Art Deco style by the Twohill family, who still own and operate it today. This rich heritage creates a unique atmosphere for speed dating, with the venue’s blend of classic charm and modern amenities perfectly complementing the mix of traditional and contemporary dating approaches. The hotel’s spacious courtyard provides a breath of fresh air between rounds, while the intimate booths in the main bar area offer cozy spaces for more personal conversations.Β 

Don’t forget to try their signature “Crow’s Nest Cooler” cocktail – it’s the perfect icebreaker to share with a potential match. Speed dating at the Crows Nest Hotel feels like stepping into a rom-com set in your own neighborhood, with the added bonus of potentially writing your own love story. Pro tip: Arrive a bit early to familiarize yourself with the layout and claim a spot at the bar that gives you a good view of the room – it’ll help you feel more at ease as the night unfolds.
