  • 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 Taipei

How can I meet new friends in Taipei?
Timeleft matches you with four to six people for dinner, drinks, coffee, or a walk in Taipei, based on a short personality test. You sign up on your own, we choose the venue and the group, and before the event, the app tells you where to go.
When are Timeleft events in Taipei?
There's dinner every Wednesday and Friday at 7:00 pm, drinks every Thursday at 7:00 pm, coffee every Saturday at 1:00 pm, and a walk every Saturday at 10:00 am. There are also women-only dinners on Mondays at 7:00 pm and singles dinners on Tuesdays at 7:00 pm. Bookings close 13 hours before each event starts.
Where in Taipei do they happen?
At restaurants, bars, cafés, and meeting points in Da'an and Zhongzheng. The app shows the exact venue before the event.
How much does a Timeleft dinner cost in Taipei?
Booking takes a Timeleft membership, and you pay for your own food and drinks at the venue. Membership 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.
Are Timeleft events in Taipei in English?
Yes, if you want them to be. You choose Mandarin or English when you book, and we aim to seat you with people who picked the same language.
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. For allergies, check with the venue on the day.
Is Timeleft in other cities in Taiwan?
Yes. You'll also find Timeleft in Taichung, Kaohsiung, Hsinchu, and Tainan. See every location.
