  • I was at a birthday dinner and asked a girl how she met my friend. She said at a Timeleft dinner! I had never heard of the app, but I decided to give it a go. I have been to two dinners so far and plan to go to more…

How can I meet new friends in Ankara?
Timeleft matches you with four to six people for dinner in Ankara, based on your interests, personality and language. You sign up on your own, we choose the venue and the group, and 12 hours before the event, the app tells you where to go.

Where in Ankara do they happen?

How much does a Timeleft dinner cost in Ankara?
To book, you need a Timeleft subscription. Food and drinks are paid separately at the venue. Subscription prices depend on the plan you pick, and the app shows them before you pay.
Can I go on my own?
Yes. You book on your own and we put the group together, so you don't need to bring anyone. Every event is at a public venue we've vetted, and our safety guidelines cover the rest. The guide to your first dinner walks through it step by step.
Is Timeleft a dating app?
No. There are no profiles to swipe through, and nobody gets paired off. You meet four to six people at once, in person.
What if I'm vegetarian or vegan, or have an allergy?
Pick a dietary preference in the app when you book, and we'll do our best to seat you at a venue that caters to it. Most restaurants we use in Ankara have vegetarian dishes. For allergies, check with the venue on the day.
Is Timeleft in other cities in Türkiye?
Yes. You'll also find Timeleft in Istanbul. See every location.
