Minetta Tavern, at opening sit at the bar. Washington Square Park for stroll and hand holding. Mayhaps a smooch. Chinatown, share dumplings.

The met used to be free, but not anymore 😢

Get a hotel room overlooking Times Square, take out the Bible from the drawer and cross out commandments as you see them being broken.

Touche you fack

Teach me daddy

Welcome to NJ, now keep right except to pass on our highways. Please don’t be like New Yorkers and ignore this law.

Pay attention to the road and don’t worry about the radio, enough assholes on the road, don’t need anymore

we have way more than people realize, including in some more urban areas, and it is so cool

Rutherford is closed

yup great idea and if the weather is right you have central park right there to take a nice walk

True lol never date a girl like that, or guy

Why does he or she look like he or she is about tell you you are in the wrong neighborhood?

Wow.... I know we have smaller raptors in Union County but a bald eagle is really cool to see. Thanks for sharing.

Lived in Montclair (13 miles from NYC on the Montclair Boonton Line) , worked in Union Sq for 12 years. Was a 12-15 minute walk to the train. NJT train was invariably late. Would leave my house at 7:10 and walk to the station, for a 7:26 train. Arrive 5 to 10 minutes early. Chill, get on the train and arrive close to 8:30 on any given day. Walk or sub it to Union Sq. Arrive at my desk anywhere between 8:45 and 9:00am. Train traffic into Penn is always unpredictable and congested.

Also Joe Shanghai’s will work!

For sure - I'd say it's great for a date, unless they're easily offended.

Get a line sitter for broadway rush tickets. Will be $100 for both of you and hit a rooftop for drinks. Easy

Lol this is why I chug my 2nd beer when we get the check

Thanks for the clarification, I always thought of them as the same thing.

I went there on a date. Got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of Colin Quinn doing a set. He called me out saying “that guy looks like the bully in every 80’s movie”. This was 15 years ago and it still haunts me

Well, at least you've got the right attitude.

However, be sure she's onboard with it. Women may wear impractical clothing and shoes to a date, and that could screw the experience for her.

I suggest not packing a lunch, but hitting a deli counter at some "name" deli and splitting a sandwich (which are too big for one person anyway). You'll need to be near a bench or some other place to eat it. Advice from hiking: Bring a lightweight 30-gallon trash bag, which you can spread over a wet bench.

Museums can be cheap, and there are some interesting ones there -- about the only justification I know of to visit NYC.

A show can be good, but TKTS is a gamble and can eat up your day waiting. I prefer not to bother.

Do some research and check out famous spots and locations relevant to something she is into, and then find a nice bar restaurant to have dinner
