How it works
Three steps. No swiping.

Pick an event near you
A singles walk and coffee, a social evening or an adventure day, somewhere near you.
- 2
Turn up
Most people come solo. Our hosts meet you at the start.
- 3
We do the introductions
Then walk, chat, coffee. Side by side, never awkward.
Why Club Soda is different
Healthier than a pub. Easier than an app.
No bar stools, no speed-dating bell, no swiping. Just fresh air, something to do and a group of genuinely nice people – so the conversation takes care of itself.
- 01
Fresh air, not a bar stool
Walks, coffee and the odd bowling night. Healthy, sociable and no pressure to drink – you'll feel better leaving than when you arrived.
- 02
Something to do, so it's never awkward
Walking side by side beats sitting across a table. There's always something to chat about, and no lines to learn – which the lads tell us they love.
- 03
Hosted, balanced and friendly
Our hosts welcome you, do the introductions and keep the numbers of men and women balanced, so everyone gets to meet plenty of people.
Come solo or bring a mate. Most people come on their own – and leave with new friends.

Questions
Good to know.
Do I have to come on my own?
No. Come solo or bring a single friend. Most people come on their own, and our hosts make sure everyone is welcomed.
Do I need to be fit?
Not at all. Walks are flat, easy and chatty – it's about the coffee and the company.
What ages are the events for?
Adults, mainly 25 to 55. Each event is split into under-40 and 40-and-over groups, with equal numbers of men and women.
Is the Matchmaking Lounge an app?
No. Taking a seat is free, a real matchmaker checks every match, and nobody pays until we have a match.
