In addition to some unusual "meet cutes", MST3K movies have had some
memorable "make-out spots". Such as the (the) Eye Creature-infested
woods belonging to a certain cantankerous farmer, the no-way-out cul-
de-sac of "Manos: The Hands of Fate", and the cliff overlook, with
valet "car-pushing service", of "Hobgoblins". In fact, such spots
generally seem to be the prelude of DOOM, at least as far as these
movies are concerned. Anyone else have favorites, or non-
favorites? :-)

I'm not sure that MST3K movies have had any places that I would
actually choose to hang out, with a significant person of the significant
gender or otherwise, really. I think I might actually have to vote for
one of the 'college'-flavored hangouts such as the diner from 'Ring Of
Terror' or the one from whichever movie had the Yipes Stripes music break
out. They aren't very secluded spots, but I suspect that with the right
person you wouldn't notice anyway, and they were reasonably comfortable
places with relatively low proportions of zombies or rampaging limbs.
The worst you face is a crankly proprietor or teen-like music breaking
out.
