If You’re Single In London, These Bars Will Give You A Free Drink

Dating app The Inner Circle is doing something strange, and getting everyone who’s single in London a free drink.

OK so maybe not everyone who’s single, but more or less. This is part of the app’s wider online-to-offline focus that aims to get people meeting in real life, and not just on their phones. The app serves as a meeting ground where you can organise real dates, and not just swipe indefinitely without ever talking to someone.

To do this they’ve partnered with venues throughout the city to offer a free welcome drink when you’re on an Inner Circle date, and you show the app at the bar. It’s as simple as that. The plan is to encourage singles to get out there and meet IRL, which most singletons say they would rather do but often aren’t sure of the best way to go about it.

Within The Inner Circle app, the new feature called “Date Night” has an interactive page giving an overview of each bar, how to claim your drink, and even which other singles like it there. It’s combining all the things people actually like from online dating, with all the romance of meeting up offline.

There really is no downside to this, think of it as The Inner Circle and the best date spots in London voluntarily splitting the bill with you in the name of love. Plus, it’s a solid way to one up your friends who have been using tinder for 5+ years and wondering why they’re still alone.

To get started, and to meet the best singles in London at the same time, here’s what you need to do:

  1. Download The Inner Circle for free here then check out “Date Night” in the Spots Section

  2. Choose a bar, go there, and click “Claim Offer” when you’re with your date and at the bar

  3. Show off in front of Bumble users paying full price for their tab

The Inner Circle is a selective dating app that screens every member before they get access to app. Within the app you see popular spots, exclusive events and can reach out to every member to get together In real life.
