Date Night Done Right: Creative Ideas to Make It Memorable

Date night is the perfect excuse to hit pause on the hustle and bustle, reconnect, and create memories with your favorite person. But let’s be real—dinner and a movie can feel a little overdone. This time, let’s level up your date night with creative ideas that are fun, unique, and delicious (because, yes, we’re part of the plan)…


1. The Progressive Dinner Adventure

Why settle for one spot when you can make it a foodie adventure? Start with appetizers at a nearby café, move to our restaurant for your main course (hello, Hiker’s Hot Honey Pizza or Pulled Pork Poutine), and end with dessert somewhere cozy. Bonus: You’ll have plenty to talk about between stops.

2. The "Get Competitive" Date

Nothing spices up date night like a little friendly competition. Start with a round of mini-golf, bowling, or an arcade battle, then head over to our spot to cool down with a couple of craft beers and shareable snacks like Fried Goat Cheese Balls or All Dressed Wings. Loser buys dessert!

3. Brunch-Date Goals

Who says date night has to be at night? Turn your day date into a cozy brunch experience. Swing by for Campfire Brunch and treat yourselves to "The Cheap Date"—our classic breakfast paired with a pint for only $12. A lazy morning, great food, and maybe a nap after? Now that’s romance.

4. The Nature-Lover’s Date

Start your date with a hike or walk through one of the stunning local trails (might we suggest Teapot Hill or Aldergrove Lake Park?). Once you’ve worked up an appetite, head to our restaurant for a hearty meal like Spicy Mt. Mac or Fried Chicken Tacos. A toast to fresh air, good company, and amazing food!

5. DIY Tasting Tour

Set up your own tasting experience by trying a variety of our specialty drinks and menu items. Pair a Beermosa with our Apple + Brie Sammy or go all out with a flight of poutines. It’s a fun, interactive way to explore our menu together.

6. The Staycation Date

Who says you need to travel for an unforgettable date night? Play tourist in your own town by visiting a local landmark, stopping by a boutique, and ending the night with dinner and drinks at our place. Order something you’ve never tried before (hello, Waffle Fried Oreos) and toast to the good life.

7. The Playlist and Patio Date

Curate a playlist of your favorite songs as a couple, grab some blankets, hit your patio and let the music set the mood. Then pair that playlist with a selection of tasty brews. To get you started; “Take My Breath Away” with West Coast IPA just hits different.

8. The “Share a Bucket List” Date

Start your evening by dreaming big—make a list of adventures, experiences, and places you want to visit together. Then, over one of our signature dishes and a drink, start planning your next trip or activity. Big dreams taste better with good food!

9. The Classic with a Twist

Sometimes, a timeless dinner date is all you need—just done right. Reserve a table, order your favorite dishes, and take your time savoring each other’s company. End the night with one of our decadent desserts and a toast to keeping it simple yet unforgettable.

10. The Surprise Date

Plan an element of surprise. Whether it’s sneaking in their favorite dish or secretly arranging for their favorite song to play, small thoughtful touches can make a date night truly memorable. We’re happy to help—just let us know how we can make it special!


Whatever your vibe, the perfect date night is all about connection and creativity. So ditch the routine and try something new—whether it’s exploring local trails, indulging in brunch, or creating a tasting adventure at our restaurant.
