A new season is upon us and that means it’s time for us to unveil our spring date night guide. Every date night guide from us will include dinner, drinks, and an activity. In this edition of our date night guide, we are taking you to Bridge Park in Dublin (~20 minutes from downtown Columbus).
Dinner
North Market Bridge Park, 6750 Longshore St.
Don’t let dietary restrictions determine your dinner plans — if you go to the North Market Bridge Park location, there’s something for everyone. For vegetarians, we recommend the buffalo chickpea wrap from The Little Kitchen which is a completely (and unbelievably) vegan take on buffalo chicken. And for non-plant-based eaters, the world is yours — pulled pork from The Pit BBQ Grille, chicken burritos from Dos Hermanos, or pork pho from Lan Viet.
Pro tip: Park at the North Market parking garage and you won’t have to move your car for the rest of this date night.
Drinks
16-Bit Bar + Arcade, 6564 Riverside Dr.
With 40+ free-to-play classic arcade games, you’ll have to find time in between setting high scores to take a drink. The good news is the drinks here are highly sippable + appropriately named like the Pinball Wizard — blueberry vodka, elderflower, ginger ale, and blueberries. Plus, 16-Bit shares the space with our next activity which means it’s a two-for-one on this date night guide.
Activity
Pins Mechanical Co., 6558 Riverside Dr.
Duckpin bowling, ping pong, bocce ball — PiNS is like an adult playground with all it offers. And after 8 p.m., it’s literally an adult playground as it becomes 21+. Through all the fun times here, it’s become very popular in the area so we recommend putting your name in at PiNS for duckpin bowling then hanging out at 16-Bit until your lane is ready.
