Check out our roundup of Atlanta restaurants that are sure to deliver a fun-filled first date along with delicious food and drinks.


No matter what part of town your date lives in, there's a HOBNOB nearby! Great for a casual get-to-know-you dinner that won't break the budget.


Break the ice with a cocktail at the Woodall. the Woodall serves up a selection of seasonal, refreshing libations that are perfect for "just a drink" or to enjoy when you decide to stay for dinner.

Is there a better first date than a trip to the beach? Visit Atlanta's favorite beach house for casual vibes, fresh oysters (wink wink) and signature cocktails.

The perfect rooftop spot for drinks before or after dinner downstairs at 5Church, or to be the destination for a night out on the town. Virtue has a rotating roster of live musicians and DJs that lend to the upbeat Midtown atmosphere.


Want to impress? Suggest a ride up to Halcyon for a date at the brand new Cattle Shed Wine & Steak Bar. It's cozy and romantic if you want it to be. Even if your date is not "the one," at least you'll have a great steak!

Impress your date on the best patio in Buckhead. Get to know one another while enjoying a selection of Spanish inspired shareable plates. Salud!


Take a stroll through Summerhill. With so many options, the date can be as long or short as you want! Grab beers at Halfway Crooks, enjoy a gourmet hot dog at Hot Dog Pete's or share an ice cream at Big Softie.


If your match has the 🍷 emoji in their dating profile, run don't walk to Storico Vino. Storico Vino offers an extensive selection of Italian wines that perfectly pair with executive chef Mike Patrick's cuisine.
