One of the best ways you can show your significant other how much you care is by taking time out of your busy-busy to spend qual-time with the one you love. You’re probably already doing this, but if you’re looking for a change of scenery from your go-to date night spots, we’ve got a local seven that’ll give your evening that extra spark! Here ya go:
-
Date night doesn’t have to mean getting ritzy and glammed up. Sometimes, the best dates are those that are cozy, comfy, and focused on good food and a pleasant time. If that sounds like your kind of night out, then Triple J Chophouse and Brew Co. is the place. For dinner, feast on steaks, salmon, lemon-grilled chicken, and other savory options. Along with your meal you can choose from a range of handcrafted beers, an extensive wine list, and a full bar. You and your +1 will not be disappointed!
-
For all you #fitcouples out there, Art Fit has fun fitness classes that are a perfect option for a date night out. Stretch away the stress of life with yoga, dance your way to fitness with pole dancing, or learn some self-defense in an exercise class. You heard us. The choice is yours!
-
You and your date can count on a “Bella Notte” if you head to Italian Garden for a dinner date. This family-owned and operated Italian restaurant serves all of your Italian favorites such as lasagna, penne vodka, eggplant parmesan, and, of course, pizza. Taste a delicious meal in the restaurant that was voted “Best Italian Restaurant in Lubbock” this year by KCBD. (P.S.– if you’re looking for a good day date option, Italian Garden serves affordable lunch specials Monday through Friday. Holla!)

You’ve probably already been to 50th Street Caboose, a Lubbock favorite for Mexican food, drink specials, and games. But have you considered the Caboose for a date night?

They’re open late (until 11pm on weeknights and midnight on weekends) so you can fill your entire night with good-quality fun. Read about their origin story here!
