What to expect:

Date & Dine is a relaxed dining evening for singles aged 50–65. Good food, easy conversation, and a natural way to meet someone in real life.

The evening begins with drinks in the rooftop bar before we move through to dinner together in The View Restaurant — a modern and stylish venue within the Courtyard by Marriott at Sandy Park.

Numbers are intentionally limited to 7 men and 7 women, creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere where everyone has the opportunity to talk naturally throughout the evening.

Hosted by Sarah, founder of ZEST, the evening is designed to feel welcoming, comfortable, and easy to step into, whether you’re attending on your own for the first time or already know a few people through ZEST. Sarah will be seated at the end of the table and hosting the evening throughout.

The format is intentionally relaxed and never forced. After the main course, the gentlemen will be invited to move seats, helping everyone enjoy conversation with different people during the evening in a natural and low-pressure way.

The focus is simply on enjoying a lovely evening out while meeting like-minded singles in real life.

And because people can sometimes feel shy about exchanging details on the evening itself, if there appears to be mutual interest between two people, Sarah is happy to make a discreet introduction afterwards. Simply email [email protected] after the event if there’s someone you particularly connected with.

The View offers a contemporary setting, relaxed atmosphere, seasonal menus, and the added benefit of free onsite parking.
