With the weather getting cooler and the leaves turning brown, many students want to cuddle up with a special someone during the winter months. Luckily, Bethesda has plenty of spots that’ll help them do just that.
B-CC is nestled in the heart of the city, allowing students to have a variety of places to choose from for a first date in Bethesda. Here are some great options:
1. Olazzo
Classic Italian dishes, romantic lighting, and cozy vibes make this restaurant the perfect first date spot. Located in Northwest Bethesda, Olazzo is a charming hidden gem that serves Italian comfort food. Senior Claire Daignault says, “the food is really yummy and I really love the lighting — it has good ambiance.”
2. Landmark’s Bethesda Row Cinema
Most people who have lived in Bethesda for a long time have seen their fair share of movies at the local movie theater. Landmark’s Bethesda Row Cinema showcases new releases as well as independent and foreign films, satisfying both casual movie-goers and die-hard film fans. Cell service doesn’t reach phones in the theater due to its underground location, making it the perfect uninterrupted movie date experience!
3. Bowlero
Bowlero is a great option for a first date in Bethesda. Colorful lighting, great food, and a bowling alley sets allows for a great bonding experience. Daignault continues, “Depending on what you like, Bowlero can be a great option. It’s a good place. It’s fun and exciting.”
4. Escape Quest
Escape rooms can provide a thrilling first date experience and create a bonding experience that will be a fond memory to reflect on with your partner. Luckily, Bethesda can provide that. Escape Quest is an escape room center located on Fairmont Avenue that immerses participants in a themed experience that involves finding clues and solving riddles that will lead participants to their eventual escape. A great option for thrill seekers!
Bethesda has a wide variety of options to choose from for a first date. As the holiday season approaches, students should have no problem finding places to spend time this winter.
