What time is dinner at your house?

What time does your family normally have dinner? And do you eat together or at different times?

New data from an online restaurant booking service, OpenTable, seems to show that more people are having dinner at 5pm or 6pm.

This is much earlier than they have seen in the past, when 9pm was a popular time for people to eat.

It seems like this trend for an earlier dinner time isn't completely new either.

A poll in 2020 by company YouGov also asked people when they were most likely to have dinner, with the most popular option being between 6-6.59pm.

The second most popular time was between 5pm-5.59pm, closely followed by 7pm-7.59pm.

Meal time can vary from home to home - but we want to know what it's like for your family?

Families eating earlier could be linked to having younger children with earlier bedtimes, or the adults in the house wanting to also have an earlier night themselves.

Others think that an increase in people working from home or doing hybrid working following the Covid pandemic, means people can eat earlier as they aren't spending as much time travelling home from work.

Experts also say there could be some health benefits to eating earlier.

Eating late at night can sometimes lead to increased weight gain and higher risks of weight problems.

We want to know what's it like in your house - what time do you eat at? Do you all eat together or do different members of your family eat at different times?
