Company details
Written by the company
Founded in 2007, MyCheekyDate hosts sophisticated, host-led speed dating events in 50+ cities worldwide. Recognized as an Eventbrite Top Organizer, our events use a proprietary, algorithmic, smartphone-based Smart-Card matching system. Every guest is supported by The Cheeky Guarantee for cancellations, reschedules, and flexible guest schedule changes. MyCheekyDate has hosted more than 26,000 events across 50+ cities over the past decade and has been featured in outlets including The New York Times and The New Yorker. Our Smart-Card allows guests to privately select who they would like to see again, receive mutual-interest results, and participate in a broader matching ecosystem. Using machine-learning supported interest signals, the Smart-Card helps identify real-world attraction patterns from live events that may inform future speed dating events, invite-only experiences, members-only gatherings, and Curated Introductions. The Cheeky Guarantee keeps guest options clear: if MyCheekyDate cancels or reschedules an event, guests may request a refund. If a guest’s own plans change, their ticket remains valid as flexible credit for any future MyCheekyDate event, at any time, with any amount of notice.

Cool Matching System, well-organized events
I liked the web-based platform for evaluating your potential matches after the event, it’s easy to understand and you get next day feedback/matches. It also takes the pressure off, as people don’t need to ask for contact info at the event. I like the variety of times, venues and age ranges that are offered too.

Hi Heather,
Thank you—love this 😊
We’re really glad the Smart-Card system stood out. It’s our way of keeping the night focused on the fun part—good conversations—while skipping any of the “so… should we exchange numbers?” moments. A little less pressure in the room, and a nice surprise waiting the next day.
Great to hear the mix of venues, times, and age ranges worked for you too—we like to keep things flexible so there’s always a night that fits your vibe.
Hope we’ll see you back again soon for another round ✨
Cheers,
The MyCheekyDate Team 💕
Going to my first speed dating…
Going to my first speed dating experience, I definitely expected some awkwardness. That wasn’t the case at all. Everyone who participated was engaged, I never felt like I was having the same conversation with each person. My only reason for taking one star away is because it wasn’t a cheap entry fee and yet it didn’t include at least one drink.

Hi Ari,
Thanks so much for coming out—and for giving speed dating a try for the first time! We’re really glad to hear the conversations felt natural and engaging—that’s exactly the atmosphere we aim for.
We’ve intentionally chosen not to bundle a set drink into the ticket, as it doesn’t always suit everyone or every venue. Instead, we focus on creating an experience where guests feel genuinely looked after—not just on the night, but beyond it. It’s all part of what we call the Cheeky Guarantee — focusing on the experience itself and making sure guests are genuinely looked after, not just on the night but beyond it.
Guests who engage in the spirit of the evening are often invited back to future events on us—and in some cases, considered for complimentary Curated Introduction opportunities. It’s a bit of our philosophy that being lovely has its perks—often in the form of future invitations and meaningful connections, rather than a set menu item not everyone may love. Keep being lovely and we’ll keep the perks coming! 😉
We really appreciate the feedback and hope to see you again soon!
Cheers,
The MyCheekyDate Team 💕
Okay
Has been pretty hit or miss. Have gone on a few occasions. Maybe twice have met people that I would see again, three times not at all

Hi TL,
Thanks for giving it a few tries—we really appreciate that.
What you’re describing is actually pretty typical with in-person dating. Not every room is going to be a perfect fit, and sometimes it takes a couple of events before you meet someone you’d genuinely want to see again. That said, we’re glad to hear there were at least a couple of connections that stood out—that’s always a great sign.
Each event brings a different mix of people, and we do find that guests who attend a few times tend to have the most success as they get more comfortable with the format and meet a wider range of personalities.
If you decide to join us again, we’d love to have you back—and hopefully turn a “hit or miss” into a clear hit.
Cheers,
The MyCheekyDate Team 💕
We need more serious men.
I enjoy going to the events and typically have a good experience! However, I’ve matched with multiple guys who ended up telling me they’re actually not ready to date. It’s happened multiple times, which is frustrating. Maybe they just weren’t interested in me and didn’t want to hurt my feelings. I’m not sure. But it may be helpful to find a way to emphasize that the events are for people who are ready to date and potentially be in a relationship.

Hi Sherae M,
That’s a very fair point—and we completely understand how that could feel frustrating.
Our events are designed for people who are open to meeting someone and exploring a real connection, and we do our best to set that tone from the start. That said, dating is still human—sometimes people are figuring things out in real time, and not everyone arrives at the same level of readiness.
We’ll absolutely take your feedback on board and continue to emphasize that these events are for those genuinely open to dating and connection. It’s something we care about, and we’re always looking for ways to improve the experience.
That said, we’re really glad to hear you’ve otherwise enjoyed the events—and we’d love to have you back again.
Cheers,
The MyCheekyDate Team 💕
Keep Your Mind Open
I've used this company sporadically for the last few years but always end up coming back. You never know what you're going to get. I've had incredible nights where I made new friends with the other women there, one night where I met the love of my life, and other nights that were utterly forgettable. It really depends on the type of people who show up, the vibe of the venue, and the MCD host. See what you find there!

Hi Jess,
This is such an honest take — and we really appreciate you sharing it.
You’ve captured something important about in-person events: every night has its own personality. The mix of guests, the energy in the room, even the venue all play a role — and while not every evening will be unforgettable, the ones that are can truly stand out.
We love hearing that you’ve made friends along the way — and especially that you met someone so meaningful through one of our events. That’s exactly the kind of real-world connection we hope to create.
Thanks for continuing to come back over the years — it means a lot to us.
Cheers,

Cheekydate event in Austin…
I went on a Cheekydate event in Austin Tx, the organizer was there earlier and made sure that everyone was spread out in a way that all the participants had a great time. Someone didn't show up so I liked the break time so I could go to the restroom or get another drink. Overall it was a great experience

Hi KarinaM,
We love this — thank you for sharing it!
Our hosts really do try to keep the flow of the evening comfortable and well-paced, so it’s great to hear that the small touches (like spacing and a quick breather between dates) made a difference. Even when there’s an occasional no-show — which can happen with live events — we always aim to turn it into a relaxed moment rather than a disruption.
So glad you had a great time in Austin, and we’d love to have you join us again soon. 💫

Hi Elizabeth Lilly,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts—we do understand where you’re coming from.
We provide recommended age ranges for each event and encourage guests to choose the one that best reflects them, as this tends to create the most enjoyable experience for everyone. At the same time, we’re committed to hosting inclusive events and, as such, we’re not able to verify or restrict attendance based on age.
That said, we always want guests to have a great experience and meet people they’re excited about. If this event didn’t quite feel like the right fit, we’d genuinely be happy to welcome you back to another evening on us—just reach out and we’ll take care of it.
We really appreciate you joining us and hope to see you again soon.
Cheers,

Low key
Nice, chill atmosphere. Background noise of location not disruptive and easy to hear the other person.
They now do the date ratings and selections online. It works well, though I kind of preferred and miss the paper cards.

Chicago Cheeky speed dating worth it
Chicago Cheeky speed dating was a smooth process. Easy checkin and met many interesting people. Was kind of hoping for some snacks or drinks and maybe a bell system but the host was prompt to move things along

Hi Alisha,
Thank you for joining us in Chicago — we’re so glad you enjoyed the evening and met such a great mix of people ✨
Rather than offering set snacks or drinks — which not everyone may enjoy or may have dietary preferences around — we focus that value on the experience itself. Guests who connect well are often welcomed back with complimentary invitations, and at times invited into our Curated Introductions, helping us build rooms filled with people others genuinely enjoy meeting - at no additional charge. It's where being lovely has it's perks!
We also intentionally don’t use a bell system. Our aim is for the evening to feel less like an “event” and more like a natural series of conversations — ideally, a room where you wouldn’t even know something structured was taking place.
We’d love to have you join us again soon 💫
Cheers,
The MyCheekyDate Team 💕

So i'd never speed dated before... this being my first time I made sure to go in with an open mind. I had a great time!! The format seemed to fit me extremely well, the conversations were able to flow and I was able to meet some great women.

Genuine people who wanted to get to know one another
Everyone participating was there to meet a get to know one another, no time wasters! Each person was interesting and able to connect. The evening went fast, and I wanted more time with each candidate, having a little more up front to review profiles or a minute breather in between to collect thoughts or take a note helps. Location and host were lovely.

Hi Daniel,
Thank you so much for the thoughtful review. We’re really glad to hear the evening felt full of genuine people who were there to truly meet and get to know one another — that’s exactly the atmosphere we hope to create at our events.
It’s also wonderful to hear the conversations were engaging enough that the evening seemed to fly by. Many guests mention wishing they had just a little more time with each person!
For those who like a bit of breathing room, we always encourage guests to stay afterwards to continue chatting with people they connected with. There’s also no pressure to make selections during the event itself — guests can take their time and submit their choices anytime before midnight, with mutual matches shared shortly after.
We’re also delighted to hear you enjoyed the venue and the host. A welcoming location and a friendly host help set the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable evening.
We hope to see you again soon for another round of great conversations. ✨
