Success Stories 💑
Many have already found love ❤️
“When I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations
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 just wanted to let you know…
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
Ready to swipe right on real-life connections? Leave the dating apps behind and join us for an evening of face-to-face chemistry at Crows Nest Hotel, where Sydney’s North Shore singles are discovering that love might just be waiting around the corner. Speed dating is exactly what it sounds like – quick, meaningful conversations that cut through the small talk and get straight to what matters, perfect for busy professionals aged 30-55 who are tired of endless messaging and ready for authentic connections.
Living the single life in Sydney’s Lower North Shore can feel like being stuck in traffic on the Pacific Highway – lots of people around, but everyone’s moving too fast to connect. The Crows Nest Hotel, our charming venue at 1 Willoughby Rd, is easily accessible via the T1 North Shore Line (just a 7-minute walk from St Leonards Station) or the 143 bus that stops right outside. Coming from neighboring Neutral Bay or Chatswood? You’re in for a treat – our events often bring together an exciting mix of corporate professionals and creative souls from these areas. For outfit inspiration, pop into Westfield Chatswood or the boutiques along Military Road – smart casual is the way to go, think first coffee date vibes.
How It Works
Your evening of possibilities kicks off at 7pm sharp, where you’ll be greeted with a name tag and access to our signature Matching App 4.0. Ladies, you’ll be comfortably seated while the gents rotate every five minutes – just enough time to discover if there’s a spark worth pursuing. We’ve structured the night to include 12 five-minute dates, with a strategic intermission at 8pm (perfect for that liquid courage from the bar).
Our conversation cards keep the chat flowing naturally, and unlike those endless Tinder chats, you’ll know instantly if there’s chemistry. With 20 men and 20 women carefully balanced, your chances of meeting someone special are significantly higher than hoping the algorithm gods smile upon your profile. The best part? Wake up to your matches at 8am the next day – no awkward number exchanges needed.
Who You’ll Meet
Our speed daters are typically successful professionals who value their time but understand that finding love takes more than a well-curated Instagram feed. Many are homeowners or established renters, passionate about their careers but ready to prioritize their personal lives. They’re the kind of people you might spot having breakfast at Celsius Coffee Co. or enjoying Sunday brunch at The Grumpy Baker. Living in Sydney’s fast-paced environment often means long work hours and packed social calendars, making it challenging to meet potential partners organically. Pro tip: arrive early and order our venue’s famous craft beer or signature espresso martini – nothing breaks the ice like a shared appreciation for good drinks. For that crucial second date, suggest a walk through the nearby Anderson Park or a food adventure at the famous Crow’s Nest dining strip.

The Venue
Crows Nest Hotel isn’t just any venue – this historic North Shore landmark has been bringing people together since 1926. Its recent renovation perfectly balances heritage charm with modern comfort, featuring intimate seating areas and ambient lighting that creates the perfect atmosphere for meaningful conversations. The venue’s renowned craft beer selection (featuring 20 rotating taps) gives you plenty of conversation starters, and we recommend trying their signature “Love at First Sight” cocktail – a local favorite mixing Sydney’s Archie Rose gin with fresh passionfruit.
The hotel’s position at the heart of Crows Nest’s famous dining precinct means you’re surrounded by potential date spots – from the intimate Small Bar to the beloved Ryo’s Noodles, setting the scene for that perfect second date. A quick stroll to the iconic Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace in neighboring Cremorne provides endless conversation fodder about classic films and art deco architecture.
