When you’re preparing for a first date, you have a lot to consider—for example, what should you wear? And what day should you go? The most important considerations, though, is where you should take them. After all, a flawless date starts with the right location. Rather than heading straight to the fanciest bar in town, consider heading somewhere a little more unique and laid back.

Starlite Lounge & Banquet Room

The smooth wood touches, warm lighting, and harmonious tunes truly lend the ideal ambiance for a first date. Starlite Lounge’s alluring, blast-from-the-past charm and lively atmosphere will win over your date and help you loosen up a bit.

The Bourbon Theatre

If you’re in the mood to groove, take your crush to The Bourbon Theater for some hip local acts. The casual venue shows music ranging from hip-hop to punk rock and house music. To play it safe, find out your date’s music preferences beforehand.
