Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and if you’re eager to get out of the house for some quality time with your sweetheart, we’re here to help! From dinner and dessert to entertainment and relaxation (without breaking the bank) – here’s our guide for your special date night at Legends Outlets.
1: Play Games & Have Fun
You put pants on and made it out of the house, YAY! Now it’s time to loosen up and we know just the place: Dave & Buster’s (because grown-ups can play games, too). Have some laughs over a few friendly competitions of vintage Pac-Man, Skee-Ball, Pop-A-Shot, and more. And, if you play enough to work up an appetite, hit the bar for some pre-dinner cocktails and appetizers!
2: Stroll the Center
If games aren’t your thing, how about a little fresh air? A stroll around Legends Outlets is always a great idea! Stop for a precious photo opportunity at the Civic Courtyard Fountain, take in all the murals and statues representing famous Kansans throughout the center, or pop into a few stores like the new Puma and Tory Burch outlets for a little bit of shopping.
3: Choose a Spot for Dinner
What are you craving this Valentine’s Day? We have restaurants that specialize in everything from Sushi to Cajun Cuisine to Tex-Mex and beyond! And when it comes to date night, you can’t go wrong with Granite City Food & Brewery or Yard House. Both restaurants feature a wide selection of beer (Granite City brews theirs in-house) and wine, along with diverse menus that even the pickiest of eaters will appreciate. We call that a win-win!
4: Go See a Movie
Want to know the ultimate win for Valentine’s Day? A private movie screening at AMC Theaters! Sure to sweep that someone special right off their feet, AMC’s private theater rental starts at $99 and includes your choice of movie from their available selection. And if you’re short on time for date night, AMC also offers a dine-in experience. Just place your order at the counter, and they’ll deliver it right to your seat – it’s the perfect way to experience dinner and a movie!
5: Treat Yourself (or your date) to Dessert
Before the night comes to an end, there’s one last thing you have to do: GET DESSERT. From festive sweet treats at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and DEMDACO to frozen yogurt at Yogurtini or ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery, there are plenty of ways to satisfy your sweet tooth before calling it a night!
BONUS:
If you’re tempted to turn your date night into an overnighter, consider grabbing a room at one of the many surrounding area hotels, like Residence Inn by Marriott! Within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants at Legends Outlets, this affordable hotel is one of our favorites because it features a pool. Oh, and did we mention breakfast is included!?
