THE WAYFARER
Head (slightly) uptown to the seafood grill and bar at The Wayfarer, and bask in the gorgeous art deco-y bar chairs. Albeit more sophisticated than some previously mentioned dive bars, this could be the perfect place if you’re looking to escape a bit of your downtown grunge footings and try something new for just one night. Isn’t that why you’re going on all of these first dates to begin with - just looking for something new? Plus, if he's paying, who cares?
