The dinner and movie combo is so outdated. If you’re in Boston this February 14th, treat your sweetie to a refreshing take on what it means to be romantic in the Hub.
Trade in a movie with a comedy show at the Improv Asylum. Head to the North End neighborhood for a little laughter on love day. The main stage shows start at 7:30 and 10:00 p.m., while the ever-hilarious Saturday night special, Raunch, kicks off some adult-only debauchery at 11:59 p.m.
Substitute bowling with a game of ping-pong at Blazing Paddles. Located near Fenway Park, this unique bar is outfitted with 12 championship style ping-pong tables for the ultimate friendly competition. And if you’re up for a few swings, call a week in advance for special access to the official Fenway Park batting cage.
Instead of a three-course menu, try a tasting menu at Asta. This upscale New American Back Bay restaurant offers three-, five- and eight-course tasting menus in a comfortable, intimate setting.
Rather than cocktails at the bar, take a tour of Harpoon Brewery. Tours of the brewery are only $5 a piece, and you and your honey can get an up-close and personal view of how your favorite draft is brewed. Afterward, sit around in the Beer Hall afternoon and enjoy a sampling (or five).
