Meet Single Women 50–65 in Exeter
A straightforward way to meet around 12 single women, face to face, in one evening.
If you're tired of dating apps, endless messaging or simply not meeting enough single women in everyday life, ZEST Speed Dating gives you another way.
Once a month, I bring together single men and women aged 50–65 at Browns in Exeter for a relaxed, well-run evening of real conversations.
No apps. No pressure. Just the chance to meet someone face to face.
The women are already coming!
Women's places at ZEST Speed Dating sell out at least a month in advance.
We regularly have 12–16 women waiting for a place, and new women join us every month.
Most women come on their own, and I keep a waiting list so that when cancellations happen, wherever possible I can fill the place.
You can expect to meet around 12 women during the evening.
Why men choose ZEST Speed Dating
-
It's a practical way to meet women who are genuinely interested in meeting someone.
-
Instead of spending weeks messaging someone online, you get to sit opposite each other, have a conversation and see how you get on.
-
You'll meet women in your age range, from your local area and further afield, all in the same evening.
-
And if you've been before, don't assume you'll simply meet the same people again. New women attend every month, giving returning men new people to meet too.
What men who've already tried it say

You'll always know who's hosting
Hi, I'm Sarah.
I founded ZEST in 2022 and have personally hosted more than 400 events.
ZEST isn't a national Speed Dating company sending different hosts from city to city. It's my business, and I personally host every ZEST Speed Dating evening.
I'll be there when you arrive at Browns, I'll explain how everything works and I'll keep the evening moving.
So if you're slightly nervous when you walk through the door, at least one face should already feel familiar.
“Sarah organises and facilitates brilliantly.”
