"Your friend set you up on a blind date. You don’t go on blind dates, because it’s not the 50s. But then she reminds you that things aren’t going great for you in this decade either, so you agree to a friendly coffee date with someone she met at summer camp 15 years ago. You do not have high hopes. But just in case, meet up at The Roost. You can start the date comfortably situated in the friend zone at the coffee shop in the front, then move to the bar hidden in the back if things are going well. " - neha talreja
