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.

Drinks

Thursdays at 7:30 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.

Reasons to keep showing up

  • We were the first group in KL Malaysia and I was so impressed with the ease of the app and the caliber of the people I met. I was afraid it would be like other mixer events where it's either people giving business pitches or looking for a date. Instead it was a genuine group of interesting people looking to socialize and meet other interesting people.

  • 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 Kuala Lumpur

How can I meet new friends in Kuala Lumpur?
Timeleft matches you with four to six people for dinner or drinks in Kuala Lumpur, 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 Kuala Lumpur?
There's dinner every Wednesday and Friday at 7:30 pm and drinks every Thursday at 7:30 pm. There are also women-only dinners on Mondays at 7:00 pm. Bookings close 13 hours before each event starts.
Where in Kuala Lumpur do they happen?
At restaurants and bars across Kuala Lumpur. The app shows the exact venue 12 hours before the event.
How much does a Timeleft dinner cost in Kuala Lumpur?
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 Kuala Lumpur have vegetarian dishes, and some have vegan ones too. For allergies, check with the venue on the day.
