Need a cheap place to take your Tinder date while maintaining that hipster vibe you've built up in the chat? Look no further than The £1 Cinema Club at The Grand, that plays a whole host of cult classic films, with themed cocktails and drinking games to boot.
First impressions are important on a date and the kitsch, quirky interior of crystal skulls and neon signs will certainly do that. But their wonderfully weird cocktails served in intriguing crockery will keep the conversation flowing and the five hour long happy hour will keep your wallet happy. If you're close to Euston, head to their Euston Square spot.
Circus-themed Aeronaut is definitely somewhere different to take your Tinder date in London. Outside is a wonderful beer garden filled with coconut shy, hook-a-duck and even strong man booths. Inside, the pub shows off its airborne cabaret and circus performers stage gymnastic feats that will keep you gasping in delight.
Your date seems like they've been taken everywhere in the city, so it's time to show them the wonders of one of the best secret bars in London with The Bootlegger. Hidden behind a secret door, the speakeasy themed bar serves a variety of 1920s inspired booze, an American inspired menu with live jazz music.
To really push that 'exclusive, important person' image you've been building up on chat, bring your date to the Six Storeys, where you'll enjoy a bar that focuses on the 'Square's colourful and bohemian past.' Sit in the decadent first two floors or book a more private space in one of its many themed floors, which combined really makes it one of the best places to take your Tinder date in London.
Salsa is one of those fun bars in London to take your date that offers affordable food and drink coupled with a real party attitude as the night progresses. The music is pure Latin American and gives you the perfect opportunity to put on those dancing shoes and throw some serious shapes. Or, for something more structured, they also offer fun cocktail masterclasses everday, if you need to guarentee that South American courage.
If the reason you swiped right was because they claimed to love 'beer and video games' then The Four Quarters is the date location made in heaven. With a wide selection of craft beers on offer and different themed nights at the weekend, it's really the retro arcade games that steal the show. There's nothing like a bit of competition to ease a date along and, if it all goes badly, then at least you've got the new high score on Ms Pacman.

There's a reason that this quirky Shoreditch spot is a hit with bartenders; the drinks are top notch. Come here for some pre-dinner tipples or a cheeky nightcap, and you're sure to impress your date.
@ The Candlemaker on Every Saturday
When their bio says 'loves a laugh with friends,' you have to take them to Steamy Bingo Bottomless Brunch at the Candlemaker. The Clapham bar is offering a seemingly endless amount of booze and food while the hilarious Tina Turner Tea Lady eases you along with a game of bingo. Definitely a quirky place for a Tinder date.
You met through the wonders of technology, so why not bond over dinner about it at Inamo Soho. Through their table, you can order delicious food while also messing around by playing a game of Battleships with your date. Perfect place to take your Tinder date in London if you worry a normal dinner could get a bit awkward.
Finding the nondescript green door of Opium before being lead up to the fresh, oriental interior will intrigue even the most skeptical date. With an amazing selection of Asian cocktails and food including dim sum, this is one of the best places for a Tinder date in London for an intimate, quality night.
