Seven First Date Spots in the Twin Cities Perfect for Every Kind of Dater

"Offering prime real estate for that summer night or weekend day date, Sandcastle is situated on the beautiful western shore of Lake Nokomis in South Minneapolis. Enjoy scratch cooking on the beach, while indulging in fish tacos, a classic BLT, lavish hotdogs, and one of the city’s greatest pulled pork sandwiches. If the date is going well: Get on the water to keep the conversation flowing, both literally and physically, and rent a pedal boat or canoe and enjoy a colorful Minnesota sunset." - Megan Sheley
