The word
moed
An appointed time. The hour comes first, and the evening is built around it, not squeezed in after everything else.
Moed · an appointed time
Moed is a dating service for London. When two people choose each other, we name the hour, find a table halfway between you and hold it in both your names. All that is left is to arrive.
The name
Mo’ed is an old word for an appointed time. Not any hour, but the one two people agree to keep. The word runs through the oldest languages of the region, and it has always meant the same thing: a meeting that was decided before it happened.
It is the opposite of chance. Nobody hopes to bump into anyone. Somebody names a day, somebody says yes, and from that second the evening belongs to the two of you before either has left the house.
We built Moed for people who are done with the long chat that never becomes a meeting. You give us a yes. We give you an hour, a table, and a person who said yes too.

the middle
The fair middle between the two of you, so neither travels the whole way alone and nobody arrives already tired of the other.

Every table is in a room we have sat in ourselves. Chosen, checked, and held in your two names before it is ever offered.
Not chance. Not a swipe.An appointed moment for two.
How it works
When two people like each other, Moed finds the fair middle between the places you each set out from, then offers exactly three tables: one for coffee, one for lunch, one for dinner. No feed to scroll. No week of small talk. One decision, and the evening is set. Moed finds the place and holds the table for you: the setting for a romantic meeting, not the bill for it. What you eat and drink there you pay for yourselves, as on any date.
A short first meeting. Forty minutes is long enough to know whether you want a second, and short enough to leave kindly if not.
Daylight, a proper meal and a clear end. Easy to say yes to, easy to fit into a real week.
A room worth dressing for, a table held in your names, and no reason to hurry. The kind of evening people still tell the story of.
What Moed does not do
Founding membership
One payment of £49 before we open. It covers your first twelve months on Moed Core, which is £19 a month from the day we open, and it keeps £19 as your price for as long as you stay a member. It also puts you in the first room in London.
500 founding places in London
Opens spring 2027. Fully refundable until then.
From spring 2027
Paid month by month. No annual contract and no tie-in, stop whenever you like.
Prices in pounds sterling, per month, VAT included where it applies. Founding members pay nothing for their first twelve months and keep Moed Core at £19 a month afterwards.
Before you pay
One payment of £49 GBP. Nothing renews on its own, and we never charge a card before telling you the price. When Moed opens, membership is monthly. Members must be 18 or over. Moed finds and holds the table; it does not pay the bill. Food and drink on a date are paid by the members themselves, directly to the venue, as on any other date.
Your money stays yours until we open. Every founding payment is held in full and refundable. Ask for it back at any time before the first London wave opens, for any reason, and we return the whole £49 to your card, normally within five working days. If we have not opened within twelve months of your payment, we refund you in full.
By reserving a place you agree to our terms, refund policy and privacy notice. You also have a statutory fourteen day right to cancel, and our policy is wider than it.
Secure payment
Card payments are taken over an encrypted connection by Stripe, our payment provider. MOED LTD never sees or stores your card number. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Apple Pay.
You make your account first, then pay, so your place is held against your own profile from the start. Two minutes.
