A young crowd mingling at The Greenwood Hotel

Tuesday 21 July 2026 · The Greenwood Hotel

Date My Mate @ The Greenwood

Friend-powered dating in the Lounge Bar.

Mates pitch their friends inside The Greenwood's Lounge Bar — leather booths, a private bar and big-screen AV for the pitches. No-pressure evening, just an easy night at one of the lower north shore's favourite pubs.

How It Works

1

Your mate creates a pitch

They build a short slide deck about why they love you and why you're a catch. Humour encouraged.

2

Your mate pitches you

Mates take the mic in The Greenwood's Lounge Bar, pitching their friends to a room full of people. Leather booths, private bar, big-screen AV.

3

Everyone mingles

Half the room came along just to watch, drink and mingle — that's where most connections happen. Grab a Mingle Ticket if that's you. No swiping. Just walk up and say "Hi, I liked your pitch."
