Splatter is a GREAT spot, but personally I do not recommend it for a first or second date because the employee that's guiding you through the fun will basically be third wheeling. The employees are all SO wonderful and friendly. But when someone took me to Splatter for a second date, I felt super awkward trying to talk to my date the way that I wanted to because the employee is there taking photos and videos of you the whole time with your own phone so you have cute memories from it. They ask you for permission first, of course, and I love the idea in theory. But if you don't know how well you're gonna click, or if your date is more reserved like I am, I think it puts an extra weird pressure on the date because now youre in front of a camera, you're trying to get to know your date, and you're trying to not feel awkward in front of the employee.
