With winter in the air, now is the season when everyone seems to be coupling up and staying in.
Can you blame them? Who wants to go out when it's 10 degrees and going outdoors requires putting on at least six layers of clothing?
Regardless, whether your just starting to see someone, have an upcoming tinder date, or your special someone is just bugging you to get off Netflix and take them out, your activities are limited thanks to the brutal cold. So instead of doing something outdoors, you're going to want somewhere with a relaxed yet romantic atmosphere that allows you to impress a little without being too stuffy. We know, finding a place like this is easier said than done. Don't worry though; you don't even have to start searching for a place such as this because we did the hard work for you to find the perfect new date spot: Barcelona Wine Bar.

With its dramatic wood ceiling, rich walnut floors, rustic plaster and mid-century Spanish furnishings, you'll feel like you took a cab right into Barcelona (now that's how you impress). Not only does the restaurant look and feel completely authentic, but they also serve completely authentic Spanish fare. Start your night off with the meat and cheese appetizers and one of the countless wine options or a signature cocktail. For your dinner, share some of the amazing tapas like the Albondigas or the Truffled "Bikini", after all there's nothing better than a little tapas action.

If the night is going well, stick around and order one of the delicious desserts like the Warm Chocolate Hazelnut Indulgence or the Dulce de Leche Bocadillos. If the night isn't going so great, well… just order more wine.
So head to Barcelona Wine Bar for your next date and here's to hoping that there's another.
