First Date Ideas in Chicago

Good news: the pressure of planning is half the fun. Some ideas that work well in Chicago:

• Try a trivia night with a team of two
• Try a scenic drive that ends at a viewpoint
• Try a golden-hour walk through the park
• Try a bookstore browse with coffee in hand
• Try catching live music at a small local venue

Whatever you pick, the goal is the same: an easy conversation with someone you already know has a few things in common with you.
