FIRST DATES IRELAND

The hit series First Dates Ireland is back!. In First Dates, single people from across Ireland come to the First Dates restaurant where they have a real blind date.

Joining maître D' Mateo Saina, are barman Neil Kenna, and waiters Alice and Pete, who help set the scene and give romance the best possible chance to flourish.

First Dates Ireland is filmed in Coda Eatery at The Gibson Hotel where every moment is captured by over 20 cameras in the first fixed-rig show of its kind to be made in Ireland.

The singletons who visit the restaurant range in age from 18 to 80 plus. The unobtrusive cameras allow the daters to forget they are being filmed and start bonding... or not!

The tables are set, the champagne is on ice, and the First Dates restaurant is ready to welcome its next batch of blind daters! If you’re interested in applying to feature on the next series of First Dates Ireland, click the button below now.
