Description: This hotel is a very popular hotel for people going out – a little too popular – and for a good reason. It boasts a beautiful boardwalk, a nice lounge, and seating on the second floor. But it also attracts many shana rishona couples who like to get a head start on who’s getting engaged (or who’s busy). Suggestion: Ask her if she minds before going.
BE ADVISED: ! During the winter months the bar may close and the hotel may refuse entry to non-guests. At this time, reportedly only open on weekends in the winter.

is wegmans a good place for 2nd date
yes
no
careful with those links to hotels. lots of pritzus!
You should probably get a better filter 🙂
Hyatt Regency Princeton – Says parking on site should say free parking on site as some places charge some places don’t so why not mention here it’s free?
Courtyard by Marriott Lincroft Red Bank, aha’s anyone been to that hotel recently? Do they allow dates there still?
Heard at one point they didn’t like dates there?
Yes it’s available but they only let you set by the seats next to the window. Also you should probably buy a drink.
Maybe it was because of my GPS… but i ended up behind the building by The Hyatt Regency Princeton. So just heads up!
What drink you get for under $12 ?
First of all, oyster point will not allow u to sit unless u buy an alcoholic drink from the bar, u can get around that by just paying for an alcoholic drink without taking one. I did that. My bill for my drink her drink and the alcoholic drink was 12 dollars. They will not charge u any minimum.
What drinks did you get? You asked for the cheapest drink you guys have to offer? Or any small shot?
And who’s going to send you away the guys by the bar or hotel crew? Hence curios to know if you need the drink by the table?
Theres more seating upstairs by oceanplace.
