Our Success

It’s Just Lunch is a fun, proactive approach to your personal life. As first date specialists, we arrange fun lunch dates and drinks after work for busy professionals. We began in a tiny office in Chicago in 1991 and have grown to 100 offices worldwide. In summer 2004, we opened our first international locations in Singapore and Toronto. Many of our first dates lead to 2nd dates and our matchmaking is responsible for thousands of marriages. We have arranged over 2 million fun first dates in our 17 years. Each month we arrange 50,000 dates for our 30,000 members worldwide----and growing by thousands each month!—that’s a lot of lunch dates!

A Chicago woman founded It’s Just Lunch over 17 years ago after her engagement was suddenly called off. She attended her first IJL wedding after the company had been in business for just 5 months. Since then, the IJL team has been responsible for many weddings, and she still gets goose bumps when she hears about another engagement!

What makes us most excited, at It’s Just Lunch Kansas City, is hearing from happy clients after their dates. And, whenever there is an engagement, we have an office party to celebrate. We love impacting our client's lives and helping them make time to date.
