A Restaurant for Valentine’s Day? Think Again.
Seattle’s world-renowned restaurant scene can get a little crowded on February 14th. Change up your usual Valentine’s date and explore other local activities the city has to offer. From sunset picnics with Seattle Views to peaceful island excursions, here are a few ideas to make this Valentine’s Day one to remember!
Kerry Park | Queen Anne
Enjoy the stunning downtown views with a picnic at Kerry Park. Grab take-out from the Champagne Diner for a delicious farm-to-table (or blanket!) meal. For a night cap, pack treats from Fuji Bakery for a unique assortment of Japanese sweets and savories.
Deception Pass | Whidbey Island
Get out of the city and enjoy a romantic ferry ride. Heights or shoreline? Take in scenic beach views or the dramatic Deception Pass on Whidbey Island.
Sample the local fare with a charcuterie board from Gordan’s on Blueberry Hill or a taste of the sea at Saltwater Oyster Bar.
The Apothecary | Captiol Hill
Speak easy and enter! This craft cocktails bar is a must see. Located at the back of The Canterbury, this is the prefect way to end your romantic night out.

Indulge your sweet tooth as you taste silky smooth chocolates on a tour of the Seattle Chocolate Factory. Tours include a start-to-finish viewing of the chocolate-making process, a history of your favorite treat, and insights on how the company comes up with new flavors.
Comedy of Love | Pike Place
What’s the deal with love? You won’t know what’s coming next as you become part of the show at Unexpected Production’s Valentine’s Day Improv.
Audience suggestions fuel the hilarity for a memorable date night.
Golden Gardens Park | Ballard
Why mess with a classic? Enjoy golden hour at Golden Gardens for stunning views of the Olympic Mountains and the Puget Sound!
