Weekly social events in Bangkok

Dinners

Wednesdays and Fridays at 7:00 pm.

The one that started it all. A dinner with strangers at a restaurant we pick, with four to six people matched to you. Expect good food and conversation that runs longer than you planned.

There are also women-only dinners on Tuesdays at 7:00 pm.

Drinks

Thursdays at 7:00 pm.

Skip dinner and head straight to the bar, where a few new faces are waiting. Low-key and easy on the wallet, it's a good way to wind down after work.

  • Used app in Thailand (Bangkok). Great way to meet new people and socialise. Easy, friendly and simple way to get out of your comfort zone.

  • 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…

Questions about Timeleft in Bangkok

How can I meet new friends in Bangkok?
Timeleft matches you with four to six people for dinner, drinks, coffee, or a run in Bangkok, 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.
When are Timeleft events in Bangkok?
There's dinner every Wednesday and Friday at 7:00 pm, drinks every Thursday at 7:00 pm, coffee every Saturday at 3:00 pm, and a run every Saturday at 8:00 am. There are also women-only dinners on Tuesdays at 7:00 pm. Bookings close 13 hours before each event starts.
Where in Bangkok do they happen?
At restaurants, bars, cafés, and meeting points across Bangkok. The app shows the exact venue 12 hours before the event.
How much does a Timeleft dinner cost in Bangkok?
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 Bangkok have vegetarian dishes, and some have vegan ones too. For allergies, check with the venue on the day.
