Who We Are

IJL is celebrating over 17 years in the dating business, with thousands of professional singles. We've created a service where everyone feels comfortable with the process of meeting a new person. The company was born in 1991 in Chicago and now has locations from New York to Singapore….and scores in between.

It's Just Lunch was founded by a Chicago woman whose engagement was called off. Finding herself suddenly single, she began the tedious search to meet "normal", well-educated professionals. Her friends sent her out on blind dates, she tried personal ads, contemplated the internet and dating services, but she wasn't comfortable with any of these options. The ideal date, she decided, was a lunch date or a drink after work. A fun, laid back, stress-free way to meet!

Our nation's capital, Washington, DC plays host to the most important political figures and appointments in the world, as well as some of the most prestigious and notable museums, and cultural events. If you are single and not meeting the right people, It's Just Lunch Washington, DC is for you. We specialize in fun first dates. It's easy, it's fun and we take a practical and proactive approach to your personal life.

Our clients are wonderful people and we have had a fantastic time matching them. They are successful professionals that are active, have a wide variety of interests and best of all have a positive attitude towards dating. Many of our clients enjoy jogging, rollerblading and biking along the Potomac River and hiking the Mount Vernon Trail. D.C. singles also appreciate everything from music and the arts to wine tasting and sports. The International Spy Museum, the National Zoo, the Smithsonian and the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts are all great places to take a date in Washington D.C. With thousands of clients in the D.C. area we have the best pool of singles to choose from!
