Ask what he wants from the evening. A first date goes better when the plan is shared.

Lists of what every man thinks on a first date are a comfort, and they are usually about someone else. He might want a second drink, an early night, or a clear sign that you hope to see him again. Ask.

Tell him what you want too. A public place, a time you can leave, and one honest sentence about a relationship or a lighter evening. His answer can differ from yours. That is a useful date.

Watch how he treats the person who brings the coffee, and whether a no stays a no. Join free and send a message that names the kind of evening you would actually enjoy.
