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

"Grab the first two open seats you can find at this monstrous, 50,000 square-foot dining and drinking hall. Tucked away on two acres of land, this is where locals and visitors come to sip on some of Minnesota’s finest IPA’s while scarfing classic comfort food. Downstairs has plenty of hearty pub fare and upstairs is a New Haven-style pizza restaurant. If the date is going well: Head out back to play a game of Bags or Cornhole (depending on where you’re from), and warm up by one of the many bonfire pits that seem to be built for Paul Bunyan." - Megan Sheley
