Planned date nights are important for any relationship; they allow you to spend quality time alone and allow you to have fun together. If you’re looking for somewhere new to go for your next night out, then keep reading. And although we are all probably under quarantine due to the Coronavirus, here are four date night ideas around Lenoir City for the perfect night out with your loved one when life goes back to normal!
1. Visit a Brewery
Get excited for date night at a nearby brewery. One of our favorites is the Smoky Mountain Brewery. They have delicious food and great drinks. Some of their homebrews are the best we have tasted and include their Cherokee Red Ale, Mountain Light, or the Helles. They also have cocktails and wine.
Start your date night meal out with an appetizer, such as their Brewery Nachos with Brewhouse chili, beer cheese, jalapenos, and tortilla chips. Choose from burgers, their specialty wings, pizzas, or even steaks. They also host events throughout the year. You can participate in a team trivia event or relax and listen to some fun live music. The Smoky Mountain Brewery is located close by in Knoxville.
2. Stay At a Bed-and-Breakfast
You should always make time for the most important person in your life. Taking a night to stay at a bed-and-breakfast is relaxing and intimate, so you’ll really get to reconnect. The Whitestone Country Inn is a great place to start. It’s situated on 600 acres and provides a peaceful atmosphere with Southern charm.
One of the greatest features here is the suites. Stay in one of their 22 unique rooms, such as the Canada Goose or the Quail Suite. Each comes with a whirlpool tub, Wi-Fi, and breakfast at the restaurant. They offer anniversary add-on packages that include a dozen roses, a 30-minute carriage ride, chocolates, and nonalcoholic champagne. Find the Whitestone Country Inn in nearby Kingston.
3. Jam Out At the Lenoir City Jamboree
If you’re looking to put some excitement back into your relationship, then why not go listen to some live music at the Lenoir City Jamboree? They have live music on the second and fourth Friday of every month. These shows include two different bands that specialize in bluegrass, blues, classic rock, and country. They showcase new up-and-coming singers at the beginning of each show. The Lenoir City Jamboree is located at 103 N. B St. in Lenoir City.
4. Token Game Tavern
Take it back to the old days when all you needed to have fun was a pocketful of quarters. Now you can enjoy this experience on date night. The Token Game Tavern is one of our favorite places to visit. They have classic arcade games to play such as Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and even a Star Wars pinball machine. There’s also delicious food and great drinks. Enjoy appetizers such as their Baja Chicken Tacos, Powered Up Nachos, or BBQ Pork Nachos, or get something a little more filling like their 10-inch naan flatbreads. This is a must-do for a date night at least once.
Grab that special someone and stop by one of these great date spots. We think that the best nights are date nights. Have fun, relax, and enjoy yourselves while you keep the fire burning.
