Ideal places for a date in Buenos Aires exist plenty. In this sense, there are no excuses for you not to meet your partner for the first time somewhere in the city.

Of course, not all dates are the same, and neither are people. Some look for places that transmit good vibes and emotions, while other couples prefer an open space to walk and chat quietly.

To choose that perfect place for your next first date in Buenos Aires, you must take into account criteria such as distance, open or closed spaces, needs and, of course, the activities you want to do together.

Don’t forget that the first date is key to getting good feelings about each other.

Dating in Buenos Aires: Ideal Places For a First Meeting

Places to Stroll

A first date in Buenos Aires can take place in one of the city’s many green spaces or tourist areas. The ideal location allows both of you to walk and talk without worrying about making way for others or asking for permission to pass.

Green spaces in Buenos Aires are plentiful, but the most notable ones are concentrated in the neighborhoods of Recoleta, Palermo, Belgrano, and Caballito. Here, you can find large parks and plazas to walk with your date and even sit on a bench to enjoy some fresh air.

Additionally, areas like Puerto Madero and the Buenos Aires Costanera are great places to stroll, even if they are not necessarily green spaces. However, the fact that you have a privileged view of the docks in one case and the Río de la Plata in the other makes the date’s scenery much more beautiful.

Shopping Areas

Choosing a shopping center, a gallery, or a street with shops doesn’t necessarily mean giving the date a “materialistic” context. Sometimes, strolling through these areas of Buenos Aires can be much more entertaining than walking through a park or the port.

Having your first date in a shopping area like San Telmo, Palermo, or Recoleta can spark conversations about interests, hobbies, and things that both of you like to do.

Moreover, don’t overlook the presence of cafés and bars where you can stop and take a break with your date.

Theaters and Cinemas

Why not take advantage of a date to enjoy a movie or a play? In Buenos Aires, there are theater complexes and cinemas in various parts of the city.

Nothing is better than choosing a movie or a play, sharing the process of selecting and agreeing on a common option with the other person. Additionally, an artistic performance is perfect for having fun and not limiting the date to endless conversation that might lead to boredom.

Bars and Cafés

A date takes on a different vibe when it’s held in a bar or café. The seating arrangement, the ambient music of the establishment, and sharing a coffee or a drink are excellent ways to add excitement to a date.

Having a coffee is ideal in the mornings and afternoons, especially when you have the option to choose a café near a park or even a terrace.

If you want something livelier and more nocturnal, cocktail and beer bars open early in Buenos Aires, offering promotions to start your date with a drink and good music.
