The Orrington

Depending on when you get there, you can get one of the big booths with very big couches. If they aren't availablle, there's still lots of other couches and quiet corners.

Trump Tower
You'll want to book a parking spot in their garage on SpotHero before you go.
Bar is closed in the morning, but restaurant on 16 will serve you drinks on the couches outside.

The Signature Room at the 95th
Pros:Great view of the city. As a party of two you'll probably be sitting directly by the window.
Cons: They don't accept reservations, so depending on the time (especially around sunset) there may be a line to enter. They card  from 7PM and on.

I dunno about you, but for 3rd dates I like to just have a good time. Especially if the first 2 are boring lobby dates.

How about at the home of one of the families, or a friend's apartment?

I have a daily rental in my basement, and a few good shidduchim came out of dates that took place there!
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

What would you recommend for a 2nd date? Too early for a fun activity IMHO.

Best idea would be (weather permitting) to walk around somewhere. Even a park.

I've done it and it was a nice date. Can be pretty quiet on a weeknight. They have a bar area you can sit and talk.

Has anyone been to Fat Cat in NYC, it seems like a nice place - however online it seems to be like a Jazz Club with Games.

I highly advise checking these places out yourself before taking a date there.
Something it may look really nice online and turn out to be pretty gross and seedy once you get there.
