We here at Beirut.com fully understand that it can be difficult to come up with original date ideas. After all, you can only go for “a drink” so many times before the routine gets a little dull. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of 10 original date ideas to help spruce up your dating game—check them out and let us know which you would try.


1. Have a paintball fight at Xtrem Paintball


Located in Citymall Dora, this battleground could be the most adrenaline-packed date. Gear up, pick a color, and have at it.


2. Get competitive with a game night at Dice n Bites


The board game café that never disappoints, head over for a game of chess and a few mini pizzas to keep you fueled up and ready for a rematch.


3. See who can eat the most wings (and make them extra spicy)


If you want to get down and dirty with an open wings night, then head over to Cheese On Top and see who can clear more baskets drenched in buffalo sauce.


4. Try to draw portraits of each other at CreativeNass


The more accurate you are, the better your chances are at a second date! This quaint space in Badaro is laid-back and full of feel-good energy.


5. Try the new Xncosmic Burger


A date where you try new things together is the best kind of date, so how about you taste this sweet and savory treat from Cosmic Burger?


6. Attend this wonderful photographic exhibition on Trans* histories in Beirut


Organized by the talented Mohamad Abdouni, the exhibition will remain open until December 3, 2022 and will include untold stories from Beirut’s forgotten past.


7. Get treated like royalty at UrbanV Spa


Deep tissue massages, aromatherapy, and facials sound very inviting, especially when you know your date has had a rough week. It’s the perfect way to bond and show them that you care.


8. Or relieve some stress by smashing everything in sight at Smashit


If you want something a little more exciting than a spa day, blow off some steam at Smashit.


9. Play a game of charades but it’s all about Lebanese politicians

Better than Netflix and Chill if you ask us.




10. Scale some walls at U Rock


Flex that upper body strength and have a few laughs by trying something new and fun.
