Escape Room

Why watch an action movie when you can experience the adventure yourself? Escape rooms are a great way to put your problem solving skills and communication to the test. This is also a great idea if you're looking for a group activity to do with other couples. Solve puzzles, find hidden objects, and decipher codes to see if you can find your way out before times runs out! There are now several escape rooms in Bucks County.

Tip: Doylestown Escape Room was a 2018 Happening List Finalist.

Painting Party

Just about everyone has attended a canvas or wood painting party these days for a “Girls Night,” but what about for a date? Getting creative together is fun way to unwind while you show your artistic side.

Tip: The Uncorked Artist in Warminster is a 2018 Happening List Winner. On February 15, The Uncorked Artist is hosting a Romantic Valentine's Day Celebration with a catered buffet, wine and beer.

Bed & Breakfast

For many people, the only time you spend a night away from home is when you're traveling or going to an event like a wedding. But there's really something special about getting away from the daily routines of home life, even if you're staying somewhere nearby. Treat yourself and your loved one to a night at a local bed and breakfast so you can really relax and enjoy each other's company.

Tip: The Inn at Bowman's Hill is a 2018 Happening List Winner for Romantic Escape and Bed & Breakfast. Be sure to try the inn-suite massages!

Relax and Unwind

In a world where almost everyone is busy, busy, busy, taking time to relax and pamper yourselves can be a wonderful way to spend a day with your special someone. Maybe try a a yoga class together or get a massage.

Put on your dancing shoes and belt out some tunes. Whether it's going to a concert or catching a local cover band, live music is a fun way to add energy to a date night.
