When you book

Pick a day

Choose your city, a date and the language you'd like to speak. Booking closes 13 hours before, or at midnight the night before if that would fall between midnight and 8:00 am.
Before the evening

We put the group together

We use your quiz answers, age band and language to choose your group, and book the bar. The app shows where to go and a bit about who's coming.
7:00 pm The start

Meet the group

Drinks groups run a little larger than dinner tables, so there's usually another conversation to join. Order whatever you like, and a soft drink is as welcome as anything else.
Afterward

Keep in touch

The group chat stays open, so you can make plans with anyone you got along with.

Safety

Is it safe?

Every event is at a public venue we've vetted, and there's no one-to-one messaging before you meet. If you report someone, you're never placed with them again.

99%

Over 99% of Timeleft experiences happen without any safety incident, according to the safety framework we published in June 2026.

I’m such a fan of this app. It’s a pressure free easy-going way to connect with fun people in Austin that are like-minded. I recommended to all my friends and I’m really excited to do another dinner.

Austin member · App Store review, July 2024
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…

I am so happy to have found Timeleft. It has got me out of the house and meeting new people every week. I have made some wonderful connections with some new friends.
