Ingram85 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I need somewhere to take a date on Saturday in Solihull or Birmingham. Normally I'd take a girl out in the week. It's quieter and I hate taking a girl to a busy place. Any ideas folks? Metro Bar & Grill in Solihull. Food is fantastic. I'm taking the lady friend to Longfellow's in Catherine de Barnes tonight which I've had recommended so will report back later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit pricey though, so maybe Metro is the better choice after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villamark Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Lazy Cow is good, the Bar is quite nice as well. You could try the boot in lapworth, nice outdoor drinking area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted July 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2013 The Boot is nice, been there a few times. In fact that whole chain of restaurants/bars are really nice. But this is a first date and I'd rather go somewhere I can meet her (and not drive), as opposed to pick her up, which I always find awkward with a girl I've never taken out before. I'm torn between TLC and Metro. Suppose I should just man up and splash out for TLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've met her before, I just haven't taken her on a date. I was considering going down the "something completely different" road and taking her, I dunno, paintballing or some shit (although obviously not paintballing). But that's risky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) I don't think I'll ever have the inclination to meet up with a stranger and go eat in a restaurant. This reminds me of a joke doing the internet at the moment. It goes something like: ''A man from New Mexico was arrested for buying a woman food so that she would have sex with him, the man has been charged with ''dating''.

Stevo985 Posted July 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2013 Yeah, bowling is for children really. Although I was the one in here advocating Mini Golf a couple of weeks ago as a venue for a date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted July 18, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) I stayed at the Lazy Cow in Warwick a couple of weeks ago. If the new one is anything like that one... The food is really nice in a steakhouse kinda way and the slightly cheesy if also strangely classy décor makes the easiest talking point in the world. Stuff like a bunch of vintage milk bottles hung from the roof with filaments in as lightbulbs. Not cheap but it really is quite nice in a simplistic rustic kinda way.
