Great Date Places

     

 

The following list of bars/pubs are considered by our staff to be great places to take a date.

They have the following in common:

 

1. Friendly atmosphere.

2. Lights dimmed for the romantic mood.

3. Offer decent dinner options.

4. No meet (or meat) markets.

Legend

$    - Cheap (About $10/entree )

$$  - Not too bad (Entrees under $20)

$$$ - Expensive (Over $20/entree)

 

Activity Date 
If your date can't decide if it's going to be Bowling, Dancing, Billiards or Skee-Ball, Jillian's ($) is your place. You can suckle from their numerous beer taps, play games, hang out on their patio, hit their disco (The Groove Shack), have stir-fry prepared right before your eyes or grab a snack. 

 

Dinner and Dancing at Marmont
Tapas in the house at Marmont ($$)! That just means that they have a menu of these mini-meals called tapas. Don't worry, there are larger things on the menu. The swanky atmosphere, candles on the walls and cool tables and chairs provide a nice atmosphere for "getting to know one another" in a biblical sense.  As the night goes on they usually bring in a DJ to spin records for dancing. Hey dinner and dancing in one place - gotta love that. 

 

Mall Date 
Ok, ok, before you get all over us for choosing Rock Bottom ($$), a brewpub in a mall, take it easy. Women like to shop. Just accept it. But at the end of the shopping spree, Rock Bottom  is the perfect detour off the mall for a good home brew. 

 

First Date and a Movie
Meet up at The Society Hill Hotel and Restaurant ($$) in Old City for a few drinks. If he or she is worth the rest of your night, head around the corner to the Ritz at the Bourse Theatre and catch a flick.

Ostrich Anyone?
Head over to Jack's Firehouse ($$$) in the Fairmount section of Philly and dine on exotic delicacies as ostrich, roast buffalo and venison. On weekend nights, you're likely to run into a live jazz quartet. Afterwards, head down the street to London ($) for a nitecap.
