There is a meme that's supposedly a guy talking about how he takes his dates to an all you can eat rib joint and will propose to the one that beats him in eating ribs, and she will be the queen whom he serves and he shall lay down kingdoms at the feet of her rib-stack.
Then a comment to the effect that this was written by an orc.
Then another that says by an orc who knows how to treat a lady. :D
... point being, it's a really cute date idea that is charming in and of itself.
(My first date with my now husband? Japanese version of a Denny's. First kiss? Computer and internet place that had a ramen cafe in it. Our house is full of kids, so it clearly works.)
First date with my current hubby: in the coffee area of a bookstore. I had one of those latté tea drink things they make and he had coffee. We showed each other our artwork, chatted about life......... And we recently celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary.

I once read a webcomic with sage dating advice, albeit aimed at teens.
For your first date, you don't want to go somewhere where you have to keep up the discussion all the time, like a restaurant.
You also don't want to go somewhere where you can't talk, like a movie.
The character recommended something like a zoo or a fair, where, if there is an awkward lull, you can go on to the next thing, but still talk.
