This is my first post on this here forum and I have a question for all of ya'll
What bars would you recommend going to for a first date?
Thanks for all your help
Peace and love

I highly recommend Sepia. It's quiet and adult without being stodgy.

Tavern on Dean?

First date: go to half

Thanks for all the fast responses too.

You definitely don't want to make a first date out of Mooney's unless you're the pool and wings and colorful alcoholics-loving type.

yeah, mooneys was a joke. sorry!
try tavern on dean! but it's more of a restaurant with a bar. just an FYI.

and I'm not kidding about half -- they have degenerated big time. chipped glasses are not cute at all. ever. especially when you send one back and get a slightly less chipped replacement.

I like Beast. Don't go to Chocolate Monkey.

Yeah, I think there are various types of first date bars. If it's the kind of first date for which you think there's some real romantic possibility, you want someplace somewhat intimate but not too freaky-deaky -- don't want to scare 'em off. If it's the kind of first date for which you think you might just want to do a quick evaluation to decide whether this person is a psycho or someone you want to take home right away, you want someplace that's intimate/loungey, freaky-deaky, and very close to your place -- plus you want it to be someplace where there's not a huge likelihood of your friends seeing/interrupting you.

I already sealed the deal with Soda. So I will just have to go with the flow over there and maybe get one of their delicious veggie burgers too! YUM!
I will go check out those wine bars mentioned, I love wine!
