This month is my 20th wedding anniversary. We can just pull out an idea and instant fun date night in Raleigh! To me, a good Raleigh date night is something other than food. I mean, good food is great, but I also want activity. I want to learn something, enjoy the arts or have a discussion topic for after the date is over.
Read on for date night ideas in Raleigh! This list is a combination of things you could do just about anytime as well as actual events in the Triangle that have a specific date. Many of these events are recurring, though, so if you miss it there is bound to be another one. Also, if the community centers I reference are too far for you, check out the one closest to your area. All the Triangle towns have great community centers with plenty of classes and activities.
And lastly, most of these activities are inexpensive, some of them free and a few of them slightly higher priced, but nothing very expensive. After putting so much work into identifying these great date night ideas, I just had to share them with my readers! I hope you enjoy them! Pick up a picnic dinner at Whole Foods hot bar, or another restaurant of your choice, spread a blanket on the field overlooking Bond Lake and enjoy a romantic dinner.
I had originally written the post to include wine, but have since realized that drinking in public is illegal. Goodby, Pinterest-perfect date night! Sniff, sniff. If you go to Pullen, eat at Pullen Cafe. But be sure to go early because they close at and on Saturday and Sunday. There is also an ice cream shop and a coffee shop in the Village.
Can you tell what my favorite guilty pleasures are?? Who knows, you might discover the next Ellen Degeneres!
