Date Night in Near North Side

Join us for our second event in the Near North Side at a new venue for us - The Hopsmith! Come experience our fresh take on the old traditional form of speed dating.

Fill out a profile in under 5 minutes and be matched on a series of 6-8 quick-fire date rounds to THE most compatible singles in the room.

Check-in is on your phone, with NO match cards, name tags, paper or pens required - just bring your phone and your great attitude! So, please ensure it's fully charged.

The Venue

Come join Chicago singles at this lively venue in a spacious, reserved area and at the bar on the 2nd floor. Weather permitting, the windows looking out Division Street will be open and give the space an al fresco feel.

Thursday Food & Drink Specials include:

Half Priced Salads and Half Priced Wraps (wraps come with choice of side)
Half Priced Bottles of Wine
Half Priced Carafes of Draft Wine (one carafe = 1 liter)
