I for one am glad that someone is trying to cater to this market instead of the couple master race. Single people have to eat too.

  Maybe I'm biased but even when my SO or friends/colleagues are nowhere near I just don't go out to eat alone. Or even sit down in a coffee shop. "Going out" - even if only for lunch or a coffee, for me is a 2+ person thing. When I am alone, I grab something to eat and take it back to the office, home or sometimes sit in a park, although very rarely.

    It depends on living / work conditions. I'm in NYC, where tiny kitchens are common and restaurants are everywhere and work hours tend to go late, and going home might be much further between you and where you're going next. So eating out alone is pretty reasonable.

    I don't make a distinction with regard to party size. If I want to go out, I go out whether I have someone with me or not. I don't understand why people are so hung up about it. I'll be just as happy going to a restaurant or movie alone as with friends.

    Sounds like you've been conditioned to think that way - that it's only socially acceptable to eat out when there are 2+ people. There seems to be a stigma about single people eating alone, that it's sad and pathetic that they are forced to eat by themselves. In reality, I think it's the other way around. I think it's sad that people need to have someone else there just to eat out - something that is a one person activity the last time I checked.
