"Unless you’ve been seeing someone for several months, a date at a pub generally isn’t the best idea. But when the pub has a backyard garden with picnic tables and umbrellas, it just might work. That’s what The Bonnie in Astoria is like, and they’ve also set up a new sidewalk patio in front of the restaurant. And if things go well after drinks, you can order everything from burrata and steak to tacos and cheese fries from their huge dinner menu." - nikko duren
