In case you forgot, tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! Don’t worry—it’s not too late to plan out the perfect evening (or even an entire weekend). Here are our picks for the most romantic spots around the Triangle. They’ll definitely impress your special someone!
Death and Taxes
If you’re looking for the most romantic restaurant in the Triangle, there’s one spot that definitely be at the top of your list. Death and Taxes features wood-fired dishes and locally sourced ingredients, and the romantic black and white decor really helps to set the mood.
This Valentine’s Day, Death and Taxes is featuring a prix-style, four course menu with plenty of favorites. Be sure to try the twice cooked chateaubriand or the coal roasted potato soup.
The North Carolina Museum of Art
The North Carolina Museum of Art is always an exciting destination, but it’s also one of the most romantic spots around the Triangle. In fact, the NCMA is so much more than just an art museum! Feel free to stroll around the 164-acre museum park, check out a visiting exhibition, or just take in all 40 of their galleries.
This Valentine’s Day, visitors can explore the outdoor art of Leonardo Drew. His capstone piece, City in the Grass, is an awe-inspiring masterpiece that blurs the line between art and nature.
JC Raulston Arboretum
If you’re thinking about popping the question this Valentine’s Day, the JC Raulston Arboretum is the perfect backdrop! Just head to North Carolina State University to check out these gorgeous gardens, which feature over 10 acres of native flora.
Although the Arboretum doesn’t have any Valentine’s Day events this year, you can still check out the gardens from 8:00am to 5:00pm. Guided tours of the gardens also begin next month—and they make for a great date.
Chatham Hill Winery
Want to close out your magical day with some local wine? Cary’s Chatham Hill Winery was actually the first winery in North Carolina, so it’s safe to say that they know their rieslings from their cabernets!
This Valentine’s Day, Chatham Hill is celebrating with food trucks and live music from the Carolina Sound Committee. If you don’t have time to visit, a membership to their wine club also makes a great gift.
