I know very little about your fine city. What is a good path stop or places near a path stop that are good for getting to know someone on a date? Food, drink, relaxation? Thanks.

Ashfords so bad lol
Barcade is also a fun choice.
Rooftop at Exchange, Lokal, Hudson and Co, Batello if you're look to spend money on a view of the NYC Skyline.
Def agree with kitchen step, dullboy… Matthew’s and Hamilton inn, and taqueria downtown too… depends on the date mood.
If going to Dullboy, ask to sit in the back patio. More chill vibe (a little loud) but also good for getting close, if things are going well.
Cellar 335. Fun Tiki (sort of) bar. Great drinks. Food is outstanding. Good atmosphere.
Second this. Great spot for dates. Strong drinks. And you always get laid (am I spelling this correctly).
She took me out here as a surprise and the wings were really good!
This is a great date spot. Shareable food and drinks
1st, 2nd, or 3rd date?
1st: Pet Shop, Barcade, Lucky 7, Emma’s, Skinner’s Loft
2nd: The Archer, Kitchen Step, Cellar 335
3rd: Junto, Light Horse, Sati’s
If you’re just getting to know someone but want to bail quickly if shit goes south, see above recs. 2nd date is a grey area of trying to impress someone but still being unsure.
The Archer is a good date spot
Lighthorse Tavern, I have sat next to SO many awkward first dates at that place. Satis is good too. Both are in the pretty but quiet neighborhood of Paulus Hook. The others mentioned here might be better choices if you want the option for a more bar-like scene either during or after.
Satis wine bar is charming
Satis is very good for dates. Very romantic and cozy.
Basement wine bar at pet shop
Second this, will add they have comedy in the basement as well.
Domo Domo
Shoprite. Good for dates, first aisle near fresh produce has them in round plastic boxes. Very sweet
ShopRite is only affordable food store for miles. Sanity or Money, in JC you have to choose between losing one or the other.
Wurst Bar is excellent for 1st dates and big parties. Especially friendly to LGBTQ community.
You can find them for way cheaper at Indian supermarkets around India Square. I paid $7 for two large containers. At ShopRite they're $6 each, I think?
Funny, but for your health and sanity go anywhere else besides shoprite.
I like Domo Domo by exchange place
"speakeasy"
Love that place!
My recommendation is to try to get in before dinner. If you get in, great: Pre-dinner drinks! Otherwise you put your name down and then go get dinner.
I would say corto, but thats in JC heights. it isn't near the path though :( all I can say is it is a cute date spot and it's byob (or wine)
Pet Shop
Amelia's seems like a nice quiet place for a date, and has good food. I hated loud places when dating.
Cellar 335 is a sexy tiki lounge. Inventive food and drinks. Highly recommended.
Ondo
Mathews
Wurst Bar on Jersey ave
Dullboy
Kitchen Step :) it's an amazing ambiance and great menu!!
Any of the dozens of ethnic restaurants on Newark Ave between Summit and Tonnele, right near the JSQ PATH station. And especially between Kennedy and Tonnele.
Franklin Social, Lucky 7, White Star (there are 2 locations— one is more casual, the other one is more of a sit-down restaurant), Ed & Mary’s
Also, if you like breweries, Departed Soles is a cool spot too.
I second avoiding the Ashford lol
LOKAL IS THE BEST
Dullboy for late night dimly lit cocktails and small bites
Corto
Great spot but nowhere near any path stops unfortunately.
Oh my fault. Domodomo in downtown near exchange place really good for japanese food
The barcade

A few downtown spots in walking distance from the Path:
Kitchen Step is really nice though a little expensive.
Dullboy is a great cocktail bar with a cool ambience and good food, also a bit expensive though.
Lucky 7 is a super fun casual dive bar if that’s a vibe you’re going for, and they have great drink specials.
Hudson Hall and Zeppelin Hall are both cool beergardens, large venues with great food and beer. Can get a little loud on the weekends and during big sports games.
Whatever you do just avoid The Ashford.
