I've noticed that my brain's default friends activity is "go hang at a bar". (lemm.ee)

99% of my ideas for what to do with friends have to do with "we hang, but at a bar".

I've started to consider suggesting aquarium trips, outdoor movie nights, etc, but then I decided it might be nice to chit chat about it with y'all because I wanna hear what y'all like. Especially things you didn't expect to be as pleasant as they were but became a regular thing.

If you live somewhere with a "food hall" place, that might capture the vibe of a bar in the sense that it's communal and built around eating and drinking, but is more flexible than a coffee shop and more open ended than a restaurant. Those who still partake can do so, so you might see people drinking, but it won't have that mild absurdity some folks can feel hanging out in a bar while not drinking.
