Everyone has a different idea of a perfect date-night but most couples will be in agreement that date-nights are not only enjoyable but offers a great opportunity to bond as a couple as well. Many therapists actually go as far as to attribute a large degree of emotional connectedness to regular date-nights. When it comes to planning a date-night, you and your partner may be a super-romantic couple who enjoy candlelit dinners or you might both be fond of performing arts, frequenting Chrysler Hall for a theatre production or symphony. Regardless of your preferences, Virginia Beach is home to countless top-class restaurants and couple activities that will enable you to spend a very special evening out with your partner. For the fun-loving couples, in particular, Virginia Beach offers a range of extraordinary activities that take your ordinary date-night to a whole new level.
Muse Paint Bar
If you enjoy both painting and food, Muse Paint Bar may be the ideal date-night venue for you. Situated in Main Street, Muse Paint Bar combines painting instruction with a classical restaurant and bar. Painting sessions are hosted 7-days a week and are open to all ages and experience levels. Apart from boasting a fun bonding activity and a great selection of food and drinks, Muse also does a lot of work in the local community, donating 5% of their profits to local worthy causes. By choosing Muse as your date-night spot you will not only get to indulge in sumptuous bites such as mozzarella sticks or a warm fudge brownie but will also indirectly, be serving your community as well – truly a win-win situation for all.
