We love cafe hopping with our SO, but when the occasion arrives, we're always looking for unique ways to celebrate. If you haven't made plans yet, might we interest you in some cool ideas? Here are 7 date night ideas that aren't a candle light dinner for the perfect date night in Hyderabad.
7 Off Beat Date Night Ideas That Aren't A Candle Light Dinner
Go Karting at Chicane Circuit
Get your helmets on and gear up for a couple of hours of fun if you're a couple that loves to compete. We recommend heading to the Chicane Circuit, which is one of the better maintained ones in the city. If you're looking for some twists or hairpin curves on your track, they can be customised. They've also got baby karts, cadet karts, Mudslinger Off-Road Buggy, twin-seater karts, and more. Once done, you could also indulge in cricket, drag shooting, cycling, and mini-golf at Chicane and possibly head to Leonia Resorts next door for dinner.
Khajaguda Hills Trek
Love a good trek? Head to Khajaguda Hills for awesome sunset views. What's also great, is unlike other trekking spots in town, Khajaguda is easy to get to and right in the middle of things, so you can catch the sunset and head to a nearby restaurant or bar for a meal.
Long Drive to Hotel Vivera
The Hyderabad-Vijayawada highway has multiple options for you to stop at, if you're looking to get away from the city on a long drive. Vivera at Narketpally is one of the most reliable places on the highway for tea, coffee and snacks. They also have decent food options, if you're looking to stop for a meal. Do visit the older Vivera (towards Hyderabad), since the service and food are better. You could also visit Seven; it's a relatively less crowded place.
VR Gaming at Zero Latency
Love gaming? Ditch your video games at home and head to Zero Latency at the Aero Plaza. We've heard awesome reviews about the VR experience here, including an attentive staff who will guide you through your games if you're a newbie. Once you're all played out, you could chill at Barleys and Grapes through the night with some awesome finger food and beer.
Go Picnicking to Gandipet Lake
Since the weather is still cool before the harsh summer sets in, try packing a picnic basket and drive off to Gandipet Lake for an early evening tea date. There are several spots around the lake that offer you a great view, while still offering privacy. If you're hungry, you could also head to Labyrinth Lakefront nearby for a quick bite before heading back into the city.
Movie Night at Platinum Cinemas
Love a good movie? Head to one of the cosiest theaters in town - Platinum Cinemas. What's cool about the place is all the seats in the theaters recline, and you're also given personal blankets and cushions along with your plush seat. The theaters are limited in capacity, so book your tickets in advance. Since you're right at SLN Terminus, you could finish your movie-dinner date at The Lal Street and sip on some cocktails.
Staycation at The Sheraton
If you'd like to relax with your special one in luxury, we recommend booking yourself a staycation at The Sheraton. The place, while still connected to the city, is peaceful and offers you time away from the busy life. You could check out their restaurants while there. We recommend having dinner at Zega Rooftop, which is uber romantic and serves great pan-Asian food.
