What if I tell you that dates is not the answer. Unlike other dating agencies or matchmaking companies that only focus on giving you dates, we focus on helping you achieve your dating goals and relationship objectives.

Lunch Actually does not show your picture to your potential date, and vice versa. When arranging for you to meet your date in a restaurant, your last name and telephone number are both kept confidential as well. After your date, it is both of your prerogatives to decide whether you wish to exchange last names and contact details.

Our members are very much like you. They are busy, active and down-to-earth single professionals seeking long-term relationships. Many of our members would never use less discreet dating platforms, as they are in high-ranking positions at work, and they have a need for discretion and privacy. Our clients comprise single, busy, eligible professionals and executives from various industries, from banking. Majority of them is from their late-20s to mid-30s; they are successful professionals who are seriously looking for that special someone.They are 70% Degree holder, and 19% Masters and PhD holder.

You may also meet for an afternoon tea or after-work drink, or even for brunch on the weekend. Ultimately, we work according to your schedule, and you dictate the time of your dates!

Our service is very different from the blind dates your friends arrange for you, because we hand pick your dates from the hundreds of singles in our membership base. Importantly, we equip you with the right knowledge and tools to maximize your success. Your well-intentioned friends, on the other hand, tend to introduce you to people who are simply single and available, with little to no thought about whether the two of you suit each other.

It's not possible to offer coaching and/or matching services that are professionally conducted, selective and personalized for each client at such a cheaper rate. Advertising and staff are large costs. Specifically, we employ skilled and experienced consultants and coaches and allow them to invest considerable amounts of time in dealing with members on an individual and personal basis.

Lunch Actually accepts payment through cash, NETS, cheque and all major credit cards.

As we do not position ourselves as a marriage agency, we do not measure our success rate by marriages. Also, not every client would come back to us to let us know that they are attached, so we don't have the numbers of serious relationships of our clients accurately. An alternative, but also good measure of our success is how our members rate our matches - and 85% of the matches made by us have been rated as satisfactory to excellent by our members. Now, we hear of good news from our clients every week - be it a successful couple or a marriage, or sometimes even a LAB - Lunch Actually Baby! :) Our goal is to create 1 million happy marriages - and through our personalized coaching services, we have also helped thousands of singles find a fulfilling and lasting relationships, even with other singles who are not in our database.
