Local Date Ideas

Dining with ease.

GrubtoGo your favorite local meal, light a candle and enjoy dinner in a nice warm bath (or on the couch with a great movie).

Make it as a team.

Get cooking together.

Lot22 Olive Oil Co. has the COOLEST cookbook called Olive Oil & Vinegar Lover's Cookbook. It has recipes for all kinds of food and desserts, like Olive Oil Brownies! Be sure to get your vegetables from Saturday Morning Farmers Market, and fresh sourdough bread from Dough'lectibles.

Week night simplicity.

Dessert and wine under the stars - in the spa, or wrapped in a cozy blanket on the patio.

Pre-order keto cinnamon cheesecake from Sugarbee Cafe to pair with your bottle of wine from Suveg Cellars.

Pick a trail.

Take a hike together!

Our favorite place to hike is Oakmont Park (number 5). There are multiple trails with beautiful views! You and your partner will enjoy exploring a new area together.

Lunch in sunshine.

Pack a picnic and enjoy it in Caroline Park, or Ford Park by the duck pond.

Swing by Olive Ave. Market for a couple prepared sandwiches and tasty sides (the quinoa is YUM). Ford Park has picnic tables. Caroline Park does not, so bring a blanket!

Take a walk hand in hand.

Get a warm drink, grab their hand and go on a nice walk downtown.

What good is living in CA if you don't take advantage of its sunny weather? Stop by Living Root Cellar for a spiced tumeric tea (add pumpkin spice and nut milk to make it taste like a chai) or other hot beverage and take a stroll. We suggest heading down State St., left on Orange, right up Olive Ave., left at Center St., another left on Fern, and head back to State St.

Learn to swing!

Take dance lessons at Fox Dance Studio!

Your first private couple lesson will be $35 for 45 minutes and you can pick any style! We suggest starting with either salsa or swing.

How much do you know?

Grab a pint and put your knowledge to the test at The Royal Falconer's Trivia Night.

Trivia night is Tuesday starting at 7PM. It is FREE to play and prizes are given every week!

Put your brains together.

See if you two can work as a team to ESCAPE!

Open Door Escape Games offers two escape rooms with either shared or private options. Shared is $23 and private is $157.

Get artsy.

Sign up for a DIY home décor experience with wine and wood! Board & Brush Creative Studio is here to guide your inner DIY.

The Eating Room also has a few Canvas & Cupcake classes. It is $40 for all your supplies and a FREE cupcake!

For the love of the game.

Keep your elbow up and eye on the ball!

IE Performance Center and Batting Cages has batting cages for a fun and unique date night!

Aim for the middle.

Put on matching and stylish bowling shoes to see who has the better aim!

Empire Bowl opens at 8:30AM and closes at midnight. Grab your sweetheart and hit the lanes! $5 per game and $4 to rent shoes. The 11th Frame Lounge is totally fun for those of you not looking to bowl all night long.

Things are getting steamy.

International Day Spa has lots of great ways to relax!

We suggest a nice foot soak paired with relaxing in the steam room.

How does that feel?

Get one another a massage at Alec Ian Holistic Center & Spa.

Each of you get your unique service and head to Nekter for a refreshing juice.

Liven things up.

Take a break from screens to relax and enjoy a plat at the LifeHouse Theater.
