Romantic Date Night Ideas for Valentine’s Day 2025

February 1st, 2025

Love deserves to be celebrated in style. This Valentine’s Day 2025, let Vancouver’s charm set the stage for an unforgettable night. Whether you’re planning a romantic rendezvous or looking to surprise someone special, here are some inspired ways to make your evening truly memorable.

 

Stroll Along the Seawall at Sunset

Begin with a golden-hour walk along the iconic Coal Harbour Seawall, just steps away from Fairmont Pacific Rim. As the sun sets over the water and snow-capped mountains glow in the distance, soak in the serenity and share a moment worth remembering before dinner.

 

Dine at a Romantic Restaurant

Vancouver boasts an array of high-end establishments perfect for a romantic date night dinner. For a Valentine’s Day 2025 celebration that lingers long after the last bite, join us at Botanist.

Let Executive Chef Hector’s “We’ll Take It From Here” tasting menu guide your evening, with each dish artfully crafted to surprise and delight. The multi-course experience is available for $194.00 per person, with optional wine pairings – because nothing goes better with love than fine wine.

 

    Enjoy ‘Romance in Rhythm’ at The Lobby Lounge

    Celebrate Valentine’s Day 2025 in style at The Lobby Lounge with an unforgettable evening of passion, music and cuisine. Be swept away by the fiery energy of flamenco dancers and live music as you indulge in a Spanish-inspired tapas feast, served with a theatrical flair. Every bite is an experience, perfectly complemented by a welcome drink to set the mood. Book now.

    Indulge in Some Sweet Treats

    No date night is complete without a little indulgence. Tuck into a sweet treat at one of Vancouver’s top dessert spots:

    Thierry Chocolates: Thierry is renowned for its decadent cakes and artisanal chocolates. For an indulgent dessert, try their Chocolate Marquise – a rich combination of hazelnut dacquoise, salted caramel and chocolate mousse. If you prefer something lighter, the Passion Fruit Cake offers a bright, fruity finish to your evening.

    Earnest Ice Cream: A Vancouver staple, Earnest is beloved for its bold flavours, like their Whiskey Hazelnut and Serious Chocolate. We recommend visiting their North Vancouver shop after an evening of ice skating at The Shipyards Skate Plaza.

    Thomas Haas: With two locations in Metro Vancouver, Thomas Haas offers handcrafted chocolates, flaky pastries and show-stopping desserts. The Manjari Chocolate Cake, made with fruity dark chocolate, is a must-try Valentine’s Day 2025 treat.

     

    Pay a Visit to Capilano Suspension Bridge Park

    This February, step into a world of enchantment at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park’s “Love Lights” event. Walk hand-in-hand across the illuminated bridge and down the forest’s twinkling treetop walkways. Millions of sparkling lights create a magical backdrop for intimate moments and picture-perfect memories. Capture your love story at iconic spots like the K.I.S.S.I.N.G tree, the LOVE marquee and a life-sized photo frame. Afterwards, unwind at The Cliff House Restaurant with a Rose Martini or Dark Chocolate Molten Cake, and browse heartfelt gifts, like heart-shaped fudge, at The Trading Post.
