As far as first dates go, I'd say potentially going out for dinner, at a place of my date's choice would be the best idea, perhaps followed by that of movie. Of course funds for each would be split between the 2 of us.

Love movies and late night drive food.

Let's go out and grab some ice cream, find a nice park and get to know one another.

Go to a place of your choosing so we can just talk and get to know each other.

A romantic dinner with conversation to get to know one another, then maybe coffee or drinks of some kind and more conversation or maybe a slow ride with conversation.

Lol what? Everybody's different, you gotta know what she likes.

I'd be content on just spending an evening having a solid discussion. No need for fancy restaurants or distractive places such as cinemas.

I'm more a face-to-face getting to know you by (seemingly) random, idle, and amusing chit chat, and lots of eye contact.

Go bowling - take a walk in a park - get a meal together and have a nice conversation in-person.

The very very first date in my opinion should be you and I meeting in a public place and publicly conversate for a few minutes and then take it from there.

Something simple

Having a home cooked meal sit around a fire have a few drinks and finish the night wrapped up together watching a movie

I cook you dinner and we cuddle up and watch Netflix/Hulu.

I dont think it would be appropriate if I put my idea of a good date on here
