Dating in Belfast: First Date Options
Belfast has a multitude of exciting options for first dates, second dates and beyond. Belfast’s chefs are cooking up a storm in the city’s restaurants, showcasing and celebrating local Irish produce and if you’re after a drink there are plenty of options to tempt you. In addition to this, you have world-class museums, galleries and theatres, as well as plenty of lovely parks and outdoor options ready to provide the perfect backdrop for you to woo your date.
The places you might want to take someone on a first date vary massively. Pay close attention to the profile of your prospective date, and think about what they would like to do. Be thoughtful and considerate, but also think about where you are most likely to feel comfortable. You don’t want to end up in a place that is totally ‘not your scene’ and comes across as tense and awkward as a consequence! We take local dating seriously and want you to make the most of dating in Northern Ireland’s dazzling capital!
Belfast is a city rich with history, culture, and an abundance of singles.
Excellent service and simple homely design help create a cosy, comfortable atmosphere at The Barking Dog, on Malone Street. The menu completes the feeling of laid back comfort with simple but elegant dishes including old favourites such as fish pie, and steak tartar with toasted soldiers for the more adventurous diner. It’s the perfect place to relax with your date and while away an afternoon or evening with some great conversation.
Another stalwart when it comes to outstanding pub grub is The Morning Star on Pottingers Entry. An emphasis on fresh, local produce and brilliantly kept beers make this an uncomplicated choice and a perfect Belfast first date.
