BOOK YOUR TICKET 👉🏼 [HERE](https://itsadate.club/event/sunday-park-walk-21/). Connecting with potential partners is a walk in the park when you’re doing something you love! If you’re active, enjoy a good social scene, and are into the outdoors, join us with 30 single guests for a 6.5 km walk around the Regents Park and Primrose Hill Circular. Switch scrolling for strolling during this wholesome morning, which includes a hosted walk, coffee (or tea), and a homemade chocolate brownie. Meet James, your host, outside Regents Bar and Kitchen in Regents Park Inner Circle and just a short walk from Baker Street Station. After a stroll around Queen Mary’s Garden, we will continue through Marylebone Green and the English Gardens of Regent’s Park. We’ll then head north, crossing Regents Canal via the Monkey Gate, and make our way up to the viewpoint at Primrose Hill. Here, we’ll stop for coffee and homemade brownies—a great opportunity to socialise more widely with the group and get to know as many people as possible. If the weather isn’t kind to us, we’ll take refuge in a nearby café around Primrose Hill. After this short interlude, we will continue clockwise on the circuit, re-joining The Board Walk in Regents Park as we pass London Zoo, and then return to Marylebone Green, where we’ll conclude at the Japanese Garden. This is a super-relaxed morning walk and a fantastic opportunity to meet a fun bunch of people while getting your steps in along the way. After the walk, the usual post-event matching and messaging will be available on your It’s a Date dashboard. Alternatively, there are plenty of nearby trails and cosy Marylebone pubs to extend your date with newfound connections. If you have any questions about the event or how things will work, please get in touch with James at 07517 065492 or james@itsadate.club.

If you love anime & manga then please join us for our weekly meetups, where we basically just sit, chat and read anime & manga! We usually sit in the back of the pub. If the weather is nice we may sit outside at the back of the pub, or even outside on the downstairs floor. In this meetup, you can BYOM (bring your own manga) or read one from the selection we will bring. See this as an opportunity to discover, recommend or simply enjoy Japanese comics & anime with like-minded people! Note: This is not a book club. Also, the TCR bar is kind enough to allow us to use their space to host this meetup, and has asked if possible for attendees to support the venue by purchasing a drink or food while you're there. Please don't bring your own food or drink to consume at the venue, as the venue does not allow this! You can also join our discord group: [https://discord.gg/nDMBbQ2CKu](https://discord.gg/nDMBbQ2CKu)

It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk! Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you haven’t met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in London every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you. 🙌 **📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?** We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want to. **📣 NOTE**: We won't validate your payment unless you've been accepted!

Give it a try!” - Brenda 🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open, and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! “ - Yaz Check out our other [reviews on Google here](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7) 🫶 🤓 FAQ **• Can I come alone?** Of course, in fact, we encourage it! **• Can I be late?** Please don't! "Doors" open at 4:45pm and we start at exactly 5:00pm! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow. **• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?** We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25 people. We believe this is a good number to ensure an awesome experience, and we’ve learned that it’s easier to build connections with smaller groups! Please try again next time if do not receive an invite - no hard feelings 💛 **• Why do you charge?** We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. 💛 This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈 However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend.

This is a simple, relaxed walk through Greenwich Park for anyone who’d like to slow down, get some fresh air, and connect with others in a natural, pressure-free way. There’s no agenda, no expectations, and no need to be outgoing. You’re welcome to talk, listen, or just walk quietly — whatever feels right for you. This walk is especially suited for people who are introverted, new to social groups, or simply looking for gentle connection. We’ll walk together for around 50–60 minutes at an easy pace. After the walk, there will be an optional café stop nearby for anyone who’d like to continue chatting — completely optional.

Hope you girls had a lovely new year. Lets talk about it in our first Sunday girls meetup of 2026 after a 4 weeks break. Join us in the girls-only coffee and cake meetup this Sunday at 11:30 AM at Leto Café, Soho. After a little intro, we’ll have a casual chat — or even open your heart if you feel like it. Who knows, you may just find your best friend for life. 💕 It’s a relaxed and cozy get-together — perfect for connecting, sharing stories, and treating yourself to something. 📍 Leto Café, Soho 🕦 Sunday, 11:30 AM 👩 Ladies only 💷 Free event – but we kindly request all guests to order a drink or one of the delicious cakes as a little thank- you to the cafe for having us. Come along for a cozy catch-up and some fun Sunday vibes in the heart of London! 🌸 🕰 Agenda 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM | Arrival & Icebreaker As you arrive, grab your coffee, settle in, and join the icebreaker circle! We’ll start with quick intros — your name, where you’re from, what you do, what brings you to the meetup and of course how you celebrated new year. 12:00 PM – 12:45 PM | Group Conversations – Round 1 We’ll split into small groups (around 4–5 people) so everyone gets a chance to share. You can use conversation prompts or just let the chat flow naturally — the idea is to have meaningful, fun discussions and connect! 12:45 PM – 1:30 PM | Group Conversations – Round 2 (Reshuffle) We’ll mix things up so you can meet and talk with new people. Continue with prompts or follow any topic that feels right. 1:30 PM – 2:15 PM | Open Chat & Free Flow We’ll come back together as one big group to chat, mingle, and enjoy some relaxed conversation time. 2:15 PM – 2:30 PM | Wrap-Up & Connections We’ll finish with a short reflection and, if you’d like to stay connected, you can share your number to be added to our Girls WhatsApp group for future meetups. 🌷

**What would it be like...** ...To spend four nights and five days in a peaceful place on a river, surrounded by thoughtful lesbians who are curious about themselves and about you, building real community and friendships in a safe, supportive environment? To feel accepted exactly as you are, whether you're in your 30s or your 80s, or anywhere in between... whether you've been out for decades, or are just coming out now... and have fun, go deep, *and* gain skills for your life as a woman or non-binary person who loves women?

We’ll try to grab the trio of tables just inside the door, which should work perfectly for our group! MENU: From small plates to tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and bowls, they have a wildly inventive menu that offers a “Korean-Mexican fusion concept” that serves “delicious food that everyone can enjoy!” Popular entrees include tacos, nachos and burritos made with Bulgogi beef, pork carnitas, Korean fried chicken, and even BBQ Tofu, along with traditional sides, chips and a variety of dips. For the vegans in the group, the BBQ Tofu Burrito is listed as “vegan friendly” and that combo of ingredients can be used in just about any entrée! And, if you’re not into Korean food, they have several straight-Mexican options as well!
