Whether your special someone is interested in food, culture, or natural beauty or all three!
Check out our top ideas for a fun date night in Missoula and get to planning! Pack a Picnic. Grab your favorite food and beverage and head out for a picnic. Not sure where to start? Be sure to bring something tasty to drink, like local brews from Draught Works, KettleHouse or Western Cider, and end with something sweet.
Mary's Mountain Cookies or Posh Chocolat are always good choices. As for location, well, the big sky is the limit! If you are feeling like a stroll, Waterworks provides great views or a short jaunt up the Rattlesnake main trail will land some really lovely creek spots.
Of course the Riverfront Trail system has great options closer to the heart of downtown. No matter what you pack and where you go, the recipe for a great date is in the making.
Have a Romantic Dinner Out. Get gussied up and ready for a romantic night out at one of Missoula's many fine-dining establishments. If you are looking for a meal with a view, The Keep truly cannot be beaten with gorgeous panoramic views of the valley. Downtown Missoula is bursting with choices to suit every palate-- some of our favorites include Steakhouse, Scotty's Table, Plonk and Second Set Bistro. Stroll through downtown after dinner and end the night with a drink at Montgomery Distillery.
