Best first date spots in Los Angeles

40 venues, ranked on what OpenStreetMap actually records about each one.

How this page is built. Every venue below is drawn from OpenStreetMap and scored on recorded facts — Someone needs a low-pressure venue for a first meeting. Venues that OpenStreetMap knows nothing relevant about are left off rather than padded in, which is why this list is shorter than the total number of cafe-type venues in Los Angeles. Full method.

Frequently asked questions

How many Los Angeles venues are on this list?

This page ranks the top 40 of 1307 venues in Los Angeles that OpenStreetMap records at least one relevant detail for. Of the 40 shown, 12 have Wi-Fi recorded and 38 publish their opening hours.

Which of these Los Angeles venues have Wi-Fi?

Of the venues on this page, Della Terra, Mad Lab Coffee Roasters, Starbucks, Breakfast Republic and Mendocino Farms all have Wi-Fi recorded in OpenStreetMap. Wi-Fi is not tagged for every venue, so absence here means "not recorded", not "no Wi-Fi".

Which of these venues stay open late?

Della Terra, Bestia, Sticky Rice, Bacari Silverlake and Patxi's Pizza are open until 11pm or later on at least one day of the week, according to the opening hours published in OpenStreetMap.

Which of these venues are step-free?

Hippo, Della Terra, The Ramp Restaurant & Bar, Starbucks and Breakfast Republic are tagged as wheelchair accessible in OpenStreetMap. Accessibility tagging is incomplete, so it is worth confirming with the venue.

How is this list ranked?

Venues are scored on the facts OpenStreetMap records about them - outdoor seating, takes reservations, opening hours published, non-smoking indoors, no live music - easier to talk - and ranked by that score. A venue with no relevant detail recorded is left off the list entirely rather than padded in. Nothing on this page is a paid placement.
