In St Albans, The Brickyard encourages women to come forward so they can "get you out of it." The Brickyard is an excellent place to take a date, especially a potentially awkward first one, as they serve a wide variety of [beers, cocktails and wine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheers-dating-app) selections to suit anybody's tastes. Uncomfortable women can make themselves and their bad Tinder date known to the venue's bartenders by asking for Jennifer or Rachelle. They will be called a taxi or removed from the area.
