Fun & Easy Date Ideas:
- Booked & Brewed: Head to Books & Company and wander the stacks in search of your next great read. Go as friends and pick out a book for each other, or as a couple and choose one to read together—either way, it’s an easy, unrushed kind of date. Before you head out, swing by Cait’s Sweet Bites & Beanery for a coffee and a sweet treat to keep the conversation going.
- The Northern Sip Crawl: Grab a friend—or make it a date for two—and set out on your own mini version of a tasting crawl. Whether you’re in the mood for a crisp beer, a refreshing seltzer, or a glass of local wine (or why not try them all?), Prince George has plenty of options to explore. Start at Trench Brewing or Deadfall Brewing for bold, craft-forward beers, swing by Crossroads Tap & Kitchen for something unique on tap, and cap it off with a visit to Northern Lights Estate Winery to sip some of the region’s finest fruit wine. Take your time, soak in the atmosphere at each stop, and enjoy discovering new flavours while making memories along the way!
- Bites, Flights + Sights: Looking for a date that’s equal parts adventure and fun—almost like a scavenger hunt? The Passport Trail has you covered! Head to the Tourism Prince George website and download this interactive experience. Explore local businesses around town, check in along the way, and unlock special deals and discounts. Once you’ve collected enough points, stop by the Visitor Centre to claim your prize box and celebrate your mini adventure together!
- A Day of Discovery: Step into The Exploration Place and dive into their exciting new exhibit, Game Changers! Challenge your friends—or your date—to a friendly video game showdown. From classic favorites like Super Mario Bros to crowd-pleasers like Guitar Hero, there’s a game for everyone to enjoy. When you’re ready to take a break, swing by Origins Kitchen for a coffee, a sweet crepe, a hearty sandwich, or a freshly baked treat to refuel before your next adventure!
- Hike, Explore & Connect: Celebrate Valentine’s Day surrounded by the beauty of nature, whether it’s with friends, a loved one, or even your four-legged companion! Start with a leisurely, scenic walk along the river at Cottonwood Island Nature Park, and see if you can spot the hidden carvings tucked among the trees. For a quiet, reflective escape, wander the trails of Forests for the World and soak in the peaceful forest atmosphere. And don’t forget your furry friend—Moore’s Meadow offers wide-open spaces perfect for a stroll, a game of fetch, or just enjoying the crisp outdoors together. Nature has a way of making every moment feel a little more magical.
