Who is The Breakfast for?

People who want to meet someone outside their social bubble. Often in tech or creative fields, working remotely or moving between cities. New to a city, or simply ready to bring new people into their lives. They value good conversation. They don’t need an agenda. And they know some of the most interesting people are the ones they haven’t met yet.

BRIOCHE (Breakfast Integrated Ongoing Chances Estimation) is the algorithm behind every introduction. Every day at 11 AM, it introduces you to one member in your city. It uses everything you share in your profile to help you meet new people you’ll genuinely enjoy meeting. The more personal your profile, the better your introductions.

What happens after I get a chance?

After your chance arrives at 11 AM, you can say yes or pass.If both of you say yes, a chat opens and you can plan your breakfast.If not, it expires after 24 hours. There’s always another one tomorrow.

Why one chance per day?

No swiping, no endless scrolling. One chance a day keeps it intentional. Every morning, one person crosses your path. One introduction to someone in your city worth meeting. It might turn into a good conversation, a new friend, or something more. You never know where it might take you.

How do you choose where to meet for breakfast?

You and the other person decide together. Once you’re connected with another member in the chat, you can suggest places you like or want to try. And if you need ideas, we have a list of the best breakfast places in every city.

How did The Breakfast start?

The Breakfast was born in 2018, when Eteri and Lisa had an idea: a space that wasn’t about dating or networking, but about people and conversations. A space for real conversations, one-on-one, offline. The kind that are raw and deep because there’s no agenda. Because the real magic happens when two people talk and no one expects anything from each other. So they built The Breakfast. A members-only offline social network. One that helps cities feel smaller and more human. One that uses technology to get us offline. One that makes meeting new people feel natural, not awkward. One that makes connection part of everyday life. A small team headquartered in Lisbon has been building it ever since.

What’s the philosophy?

The best things in life start with a conversation. Not a swipe. Not a pitch. A real conversation, one-on-one, without a script. The kind that only happens offline, when two people sit across the table, with nowhere else to be. Real connection — the kind that changes how you think, who you become, the life you build — still happens face to face. Over a slow morning. In a city full of people you haven’t met yet. That’s what The Breakfast is built around. Because life happens offline.

Why meet over breakfast?

Because dinner sounds like a date, and lunch sounds like a work meeting. Breakfast is just breakfast. Simple, relaxed, and easy. The kind of setting where meeting someone new feels natural.

What our members say

The Breakfast app is like having morning coffee with friends from around the world. No masks, just me. No expectations. Surprises around every corner, and every chat feels like a mini adventure.

This is a real treasure trove of interesting and versatile personalities! I’ve heard so many fascinating life stories over breakfast, and I really love it!

The type of people who use the app are open-minded, super curious about others, and know how to have a good conversation.

I love talking to strangers, and the app allows me to do it outside my extended network and neighborhood.

The Breakfast app is precious! I’ve met so many creative and outgoing people through it. They’re all different from me, and it’s changed me like never before.

The app that actually lets you meet people, unlike 99.99% of dating apps.

The Breakfast is simply a natural phenomenon you can activate whenever you want to meet interesting people outside your day-to-day bubble.

It was made for me! No late nights, just daytime over a coffee. Perfect!

The Breakfast community has brought me into a world of incredible transformation and insight. I'm in awe of the beautiful stories each of us is living and sharing with the world. Every story shared with me through The Breakfast illuminates a different part of my own.

Out of all the human connection apps I’ve tried, The Breakfast is by far the most intentional. I love that it uses technology as a bridge to real-life connection, not just another platform for mindless swiping.

I met someone on The Breakfast who became a dear friend, and we just took a trip together!

The Breakfast team blends breakfasts and serendipity with a mission to bring quality in-person connections to people. Slide for a chance and get introduced to one interesting person to have breakfast with!

The Breakfast allows me to discover new places and connect with people I might never have had the chance to meet otherwise.

Three breakfasts in: 10/10 app. I love that it’s centered around a specific meal and time of day, because it means you just have to decide on a day and place.

I really love the 1:1 setup, with no second intentions from the start.

I love the non-dating context. It lowers expectations and lets me focus on having a real conversation.

Best discovery of the year! The Breakfast app brought me so much inspiration, new ideas, and meaningful connections. I’ve tried all kinds of ways to meet new people in Lisbon and expand my social circle, but The Breakfast has been the easiest and by far the most thoughtful.

Game changer! I've met more than 20 people on The Breakfast, and at least 5 of them have become close friends.

No swiping, no pressure. Just a genuine chance to meet someone over coffee.

I like how you only have one person option per 24 hours. The result is a thoughtful and slow process, which is a big advantage over dating apps with a million options.

The Breakfast has such a refreshing proposal. I've met people from various work fields, older and younger than me, with friends and family, already established in the city — people I probably would have never met otherwise.
