As the name suggest, The Austin Wine Merchant has one of the best collections of wine for miles around. For beer lovers this is a must place to visit and also to take your partner or date for relaxed and quiet moment in their lounge sipping the excellent sauvignon blancs. Follow this up with an exciting night out nearby for food, dance and music.

Surprisingly good on your pocket, this French restaurant Chez Nous on Neches St. in the heart of Austin is typical of what makes people want to go back again and again. Very authentic food with the feeling that you will be lost in France along with your dreamy date or anyone else you care to bring.

Plush on Red River St. caters to the dancers who love to rock to drums and bass. With a bar that is next to the dance floor, you can simply chat with your date or if you like get your grooves onto the dance floor. Cheap and cheerful this place packs a punch during weekends, so make sure you eat before coming here.
