It?s not hard to find a place for romance to bloom against the backdrop of stunning landscapes surrounding Albuquerque. Date ideas encompass both daytime and nighttime activities, offering plenty of flexibility for couples with busy schedules. Here are a few of our top picks:
- Dine at Ten 3 – This mountaintop restaurant perched atop the Sandia Mountains is surrounded by breathtaking views and has options for both casual and fine dining.
- Watch the Sunset – Whether you?d rather kick back and be served on the viewing platform of a hotel with a view (e.g., The Chaco, Parq Central, or Andaluz) or head up to Sandia Crest, romance will surely be on the menu!
- Picnic at Elena Gallegos Open Space – Lay out a blanket as the stars emerge and savor a gourmet picnic prepared with love as you watch the sparkling city lights in the distance.
Get Historical
If your couples? list of things to do in Albuquerque includes a geeky twist, you won’t be disappointed. Steeped in centuries of history, the cobblestone streets are home to a treasure trove of ways to immerse yourselves in the past. Top venues for the best history-based date night in Albuquerque include:
- The Old Town – Albuquerque?s adobe buildings and Spanish-influenced architecture transport you to the city’s early days as you stroll hand in hand through the winding streets, discovering quaint boutiques, art galleries, and the iconic San Felipe de Neri Church.
- First Friday Fractals at the Natural History Museum – On the first Friday of every month, the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Planetarium hosts a stunning visual tour of the night sky. Perfect for couples who like a bit of star gazing – as well as gazing lovingly into each other’s eyes!
- Drop into the 66 Diner – OK, so it?s not quite as historical as our other suggestions. However, this retro eatery is one of the most fun date night ideas for any couple in the mood for a nostalgic dip into the last century.
Keep it Traditional
Just looking to grab a drink, dinner, or indulge in an overnight getaway? For a more classic date night in Albuquerque, we have some great options for you! After all, sometimes the timeless dates can be just as memorable as the more unique ones.
- Wine Tasting/Brewery Hopping – Embark on a delightful journey through Albuquerque’s burgeoning wine and brewery scene. Choose from visiting the Gruet Winery for exquisite sparkling wines or exploring the diverse craft beer offerings at La Cumbre Brewing Company.
- Destination Delicious – In addition to a variety of fine dining and classic New Mexican establishments, there are plenty of niche eating experiences to be found. Examples include Farm and Table and Indian Pueblo Kitchen.
- Sleep in Style – For a romantic getaway that makes the most of the city?s old-school charm and historic appeal, Casas de Suenos Old Town Historic Inn and Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town are two of our favorites.
