6 Best Spots for Date Night in Edmonton
Posted on June 3, 2016
Edmonton is an exciting town with many places for couples, whether it's a
first date or a fiftieth anniversary. With such a wide variety, there's a fun
spot for you and your date. Day or night, indoors or outdoors, casual or
romantic, these are the six best date night locales in Edmonton.
Greenland Garden
Center
Greenland Garden Center has great workshops where couples can learn new
skills and make things together. It's also the home of the Branches Restaurant,
which specifically holds a Date Night every Friday from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.
Anyone who loves gardening, fresh food, flowers, nature, or delicious cuisine
is going to have a lovely evening.
West Edmonton Mall
Indoor Shooting Range
Shooters get an adrenaline-filled trip to the West Edmonton Mall Shooting Range,
which welcomes couples looking for a more exciting, less conventional
date. The Mall itself is enormous, with all sorts of other attractions and
restaurants to check out after target practice. There's nothing quite as
exciting as showing off your marksmanship skills, or being surprised by your
date's accuracy.
Edmonton Skydive
Another heart-racing opportunity, Edmonton Skydive sends you and your
special someone plummeting in free fall together. Edmonton Skydive is even the
first company to do a skydiving tattoo. The experienced team offers accessible
classes, and licensing is thorough without being a hassle. Be ready because
sparks will fly once you've touched safely on the ground!
Strathcona Science
Provincial Park
Active couples enjoy an early morning or midday bike or jog through this
pleasant park with natural scenery and woods. Some of the trails end at a high
boardwalk overlooking the river, lovely when the sun is shining over it. The
park is often used as a site for wedding photos, so who knows? Sometime in the
future, you just might be coming back in fancier attire!
Cavern
For a cozy and fancy romantic dinner for two, Cavern is a must see. The
restaurant serves artisanal cheeses and meats with wine, beer, and cocktails,
all in a brick-walled, homely bistro setting. The offerings rotate constantly
based on the highest quality market offerings, so they have no regular menu
available online. Every visit is a surprise, so wine and cheese lovers should
make this a regular date spot.
On The Rocks
Whether you and your date have enthralling moves or two left feet, the salsa
is a fun, sexy, and couples-oriented dance that you can always fall back on.
Best of all, you can take advantage of very simple beginner lessons for only $5
at On The Rocks. After you've worked up an appetite, the restaurant offers
delicious American favorites, like a Country Cobb salad, maple seared salmon,
and an awesome chicken BLT.
The best dates are ones that show off who you are and give your date a
chance to show their own traits as well. There are so many things to do in
Edmonton and the surrounding areas, so get out there and start trying something
new!
