Make a weekend of it...

… with a staycation at one of the premier boutique spots in Indianapolis. May we suggest the Bottleworks Hotel or Hotel Indy? Bonus: Plenty of fabulous restaurants within walking distance.

CityMom Lauren and her husband love gaming fun on date night.

Try something new like...

… retro arcade games and craft beer at Tappers Arcade Bar. All the games are free-to-play with purchase, so grab a bev or chips from Broad Ripple Chip Company and have a blast!

Get cozy over a beautifully-constructed charcuterie board.

Make reservations for...

… a unique dining experience, like at 317 Charcuterie in Carmel where owner Emily seeks to bring only the highest-quality (and seriously beautiful) boards to your table. Speaking from experience, she knows how to make a mean charcuterie plate.

Get outdoorsy while...

… throwing axes at Bad Axe Throwing, where you can even BYOB. Best part? You don’t have to make a reservation - they offer walk-in hours 7 days a week.

CityMom Kira diving into just one of the bespoke chocolates to taste at SoChatti.

Or go off the beaten path...

… by taking a cooking class at Nestle Inn with their “Everything Chocolate” event. Or, if you like the idea of chocolate without the work, try a tasting at SoChatti!
