Big age gap, would you date?

Recently a guy has shown interest in me, bought me a birthday present and asked me out for coffee (we haven't been out yet.) We have loads in common and chat for ages when we bump into each other but there is a big age gap, possibly 20 years (I haven't asked but when he found out how old I was on my birthday he commented he was old enough to be my dad.) He's not my normal type but seems super sweet. I'm just not sure if age will be a problem. Im mid 30s.

There's no harm in dating a much older someone if you like them, it doesn't mean you are going to set up home together but could be a pleasant and rewarding relationship.

We're going for coffee tomorrow, we'll see how things go, but I think I've already decided that we're not right. He's also quite a bit shorter than me and weirdly his surname puts me off.
