From afternoon adventures to memory-making weekends, these fabulous Oklahoma destinations are sure to keep the sparks flying, even in the peak of winter.

Coffee Dates

Oklahoma City

Warm lighting and intimate seating make Stitch Cafe perfect for pairs. Escape the cold with a traditional cup of joe at this Oklahoma City gem, or try something new with a hot beetroot latte blended with ginger and coconut blossom sugar. Pair your drinks with options like savory breakfast tacos or the popular, house-made pop tarts.

After enjoying coffee and a treat, wander the halls of the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, bundle up and stroll along the Bricktown Entertainment District canal or pop into cozy galleries lining the Paseo Arts District during a First Friday Gallery Walk.

Tulsa

For exceptional coffee in a uniquely historic locale, bring your date to Topeca Coffee Roasters in downtown Tulsa. Located inside the Philcade Building, this renowned coffee company serves up high-quality espresso, lattes, teas and more with a side of Art Deco flair. Grab seats in front of the large windows and enjoy conversation and people-watching during a leisurely morning or early afternoon.

Continue the date indoors and catch a movie at Tulsa’s historic Circle Cinema, a live show at Cain’s Ballroom or a game of bowling at Dust Bowl Lanes & Lounge.

Lawton

Off the beaten path in Lawton, the Silver Spoon Kitchen & Bakeshop's exposed brick walls, charming décor and occasional live music create an endearing backdrop for a cozy coffee date. Find a comfy chair in the loft and sample one of the incredible desserts this eatery has to offer. The pecan pie cake or Vera Mae’s decadent cheesecake come highly recommended.

If your date is the outdoorsy type, take a short, scenic drive to Quartz Mountain State Park or the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. Join a seasonal eagle watch, or venture off on your own for winter hiking, birding and rock-hopping along serene nature trails.

Turn the romance up a notch and reserve the Anniversary Package, which includes private dining room service for two.

Vintage 22 – Ada

Is pizza your love language? Claim a table next to the fireplace at Vintage 22 in Ada and enjoy artisan pies next to a roaring fire on a chilly winter night. Add a bottle of Oklahoma wine to the mix, and complete the evening on a sweet note with a create-your-own cheesecake topped with fresh berries, pecans or decadent caramel sauce.
