I asked the good people of Facebook for some ideas on where they would take themselves on a date, alone, in El Paso and El Pasoans did not disappoint with their ideas.

Places To Take Yourself On A Date In El Paso:

Trina Cooper is a simple women and believes that date nights sometimes don’t have to be glamorous:

Couch! In sweats with pizza and a beer!”

However, Karina is the kind of girl that believes you SHOULD wine and dine yourself!

“Anywhere expensive, that you would never take anybody else.”

Alamo Drafthouse:

So, recently I took myself on a date to Alamo Drafthouse and I LOVED IT! Dinner, a movie AND the best margaritas ever. I had to limit myself to only two though because well, I was solo so I still had to drive myself home, duh.

A few other people agree that Alamo is a good place for some alone time: 

Miriam Eslinger:

"Alamo Drafthouse, dinner & a movie, with Margaritas served, all at the same time. Me, Myself and I."

Isabel Pacileo Dos Santos:

"I’ve never been but I’m considering to take myself on a date to the Alamo Cinema."

Downtown El Paso:

Downtown El Paso has grown so much and at night it’s such a beautiful sight so it was no surprise that people suggested taking themselves on a date in the downtown area:

Breanna Renee:

"The Tap, and Scooter around San Jacinto."

Hiking:

If being outdoors is your thing then it’s a good thing El Paso is surrounded by beautiful mountains.

Sonia Boukaia:

"Mckelligon canyon, hiking, nature, peace and quiet! My kind of date!"

Historic Sites:

Think outside the box when you’re taking yourself on a date. That’s what Ray is doing with his interesting date night idea:

Ray Oliver:

"The old section of the cemetery just outside of EP city. Read the names and dates of the earliest residents of EP."

Or take a road trip to Las Cruces historic Old Mesilla:

Martha Velasco:

"Take a drive out to Mesilla through the back roads, stop at Vista Growers nursery to see the flowers then on to Old Mesilla for a wine tasting tour to the different vineyards then finish it off with dinner at Les Combes!"

Overall it seems like there are plenty of options when it comes to having a date night alone in El Paso. So, take some time to enjoy YOU and spoil yourself because you deserve it!
