Meet new people over drinks

An evening at a bar we've booked, with a group put together for you, so all you do is show up. Non-alcoholic options are always on the menu.

A drinks night, step by step

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.
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.

What members say

Three people smiling together at an evening event

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…

Trustpilot review
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.

App Store review
I'm glad I found it, and glad for the friends and acquaintances I have made. Now I have people to go and hike with, play poker, go to New Year's parties, and game with, thanks to Timeleft.

Questions about drinks nights

Do I have to drink alcohol?

No. Every venue has non-alcoholic options, so order whatever you like. You're there for the conversation.

Who can come to drinks?

Members who are at least the legal drinking age where the event takes place. In the US, that means 21 and over.

How is it different from a dinner?

There's no meal to share and the group is usually a bit bigger, so it suits an evening when you want something lighter. For a longer sit-down evening, try a dinner.

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. If you'd like company, you can invite a friend from your booking in the app. If it's their first time on Timeleft, they join that evening without a membership, and everyone pays for their own drinks at the bar.
