The best second date ideas in NYC

Dive bars are super casual and fun and (at times) great places to hear some live music. So grab a craft beer, mix things up and kick some butt. Fat Cat in the West Village should be your go to spot.

If you date falls on a beautiful evening, you and your date should totally grab a bike a zip around the city or explore one of the multiple parks in NYC.

Nail the perfect rendezvous for drinks-with-a-view at City Vineyard. This outdoor bar and rooftop vineyard that boasts panoramic vistas of the Hudson River.

Find out if your pairing is written in the stars by spending an evening at the elevated park’s weekly stargazing night, put on by the Amateur Astronomers Association of New York.

Did the two of you bond over the love of a certain sports team during your first date? Snag tickets to any game and share some nachos.

Can never go wrong with a comedy show. And thankfully, NYC is chock full of some of the best comedy clubs in the nation. Laughing is the key to anyone’s heart.

Seeing a movie together while you start off dating is a no brainer. But step it up a level and go all out. Head to one of the many outdoor movie screenings around the city. Or if the weather sucks, do the same indoors at Nitehawk or Alamo Drafthouse.

Show off your horticultural expertise with a stroll through the exotic plants housed in the stunning Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, one of the most romantic buildings in New York.

If you and your date are a culture nerds - don’t miss out on exploring some of the many free museums in NYC. Expanding your horizons together.

Waterfront, sunshine, and endless delicious eats. It’s just a given. After you eat your fill, take a walk around Williamsburg. Hand holding is encouraged.
