    See...I love food so dinner dates are wonderful to me. That said...I prefer to experiment so I like going to places ive never been or exploring new cuisine. There are also theme type dinners one can go to...:-)

    Other than dinner...hmm.
    Movies
    Gallery or museum
    Gaming session if you're both into video games
    Gym dates
    Horseback riding
    Zoo
    Aquarium
    Going to some sporting event you both like
    Exploring your city
    Pool or bowling
    Rollerblading/hiking/skiing/swimming
    Aquapark or Amusement park
    Watching the sun set and then star gazing
    A play or musical or dance performance or opera
    A night at the casino

    Something active! One cool date I went on was a bike ride! Afterwards we did get something to eat but that's only because we were hungry after.

    I second stuff like bowling, pool, or some other adult fun house.

    Board games, cards, a museum....


    I'm one of those who lives to eat but there are still so many things out there you can do that don't involve food!

    Mini golf. I LOVED mini golf dates. Hiking was a good one too. I was easy that way.
