Alcoholic vs. Non Alcoholic First Dates

I'll add to sample size referring to 2015-16 data, busy small city SoCal
Ex-girls room mate got number close as I was doing minor home repair; first date was a hike, follwed up with couldn't load Netflix went straight to chill.
Number closed at Starbucks, Norwegian foreign exchange student honest 9.5, invited to her house told to bring wine, got the clothes off NO BANG.
Number closed in whole foods, first date was dinner / apps, split the bill sneaked into hot tub on private property, got the bang
Number closed in whole foods #2, first date was drinks, Alotta bullshit Before bang maybe 3-4 dates.
Number closed @ rock gym 2nd date at rock gym, 1 drink, then my place bang
Number close by mutual friends, only met for drinks, No bang
Number closed at high end bar, 2 dates with drinks & apps - no bang. 3rd 4th date no drinks got the bang.
Back in NY when In my early 20s, was all about getting sloppy & bringing home sloppy 4-6s and an 8 that one time.
Here in SoCal, you got every dick swiping there thumbs off, blowing money on drinks, dressed to the 9's, it actually pays to be in gym clothes and do some thing for free-20 bucks and you'll separate your self from
TLDR
Skip the drinks got to the whole foods hot food bar get the bang.

I've had more success/bangs with "coffee dates" than meeting at bars. Far more in fact.
My impression is that the girls trust themselves more, and trust you more. They let their guard down, are more relaxed and open.
He asked me for coffee, he must be a good guy. No way he could be calculating while sipping a mocha!
I can't even count the number of times a girl has told me how surprised and pleased she was that I suggested coffee at Barnes & Noble (bookstore) and not a drink at X Bar. They don't get that very much, they are intrigued and think you're different in some way. An added bonus is that a venue like that gives endless things to talk about, we can go for a stroll, I stop and show her a photography book.. it feels "natural" to a girl, and if there's one thing girls love it is "things just happening".
If she only knew it didn't "just happen"....
