Coffee is a classic for a reason, but a change of scene can make a first or second meetup much more memorable.

Keep it safe and simple
Pick public places, plan your own transport and tell a friend where you'll be. Activities with a natural end time make it easy to leave on a good note, or keep going if it's going well.
