6 Summer Date Ideas in Fredericton!

The warm weather is here, and romance is the freshest fruit in season. Whether you’re trying things out with your newest Tinder match, or finally finding time to spend with that special someone; make sure to check out these ideas for fun dates in Fredericton.

1. Satisfy your sweet tooth

Nothing brings people together like food. This is why first-time daters and long-married couples alike relish in the joy sharing a tasty snack. Fredericton’s local dessert scene has got you fully served, offering everything from funky fresh donuts at The Donut Bar, decadent desserts at Chess Piece Café, and hand-crafted frozen goodness at Delish Gourmet Rolled Ice Cream.  Or if you feeling particularly nostalgic, check out the enormous gourmet milkshakes at the Shake Shed – the perfect treat to share! Spending time with your sweetheart has never been sweeter.

2. Patio Hoppin’

Why spend your time inside when you can enjoy the little time we have with the sun? Catch some rays at some of these amazing restaurants' cozy outdoor spaces! Grab a cold-brew at Milltown alley patio or some grub at Caribbean Flavas! Looking for something specific? Here’s a list of restaurants to fill every craving. Also check out our “Patio Hopping” blog for more great outdoor dining ideas!

3. Take a plunge

This summer, go on a date that’ll totally sweep you both off your feet! Second Nature Outdoors can gear you up for an afternoon of fun on the Saint John river. Rent a kayak, canoe, or stand-up paddleboard and discover together the beauty of Fredericton’s waterways.

Looking for something with a little less-effort? Not a problem! Hop into an inflatable tube from Nashwaak Tubing and spend a care-free day floating down the Nashwaak river. Nothing beats a warm summer day, a scenic view, and the company of someone you love.

4. Take a tasty tour

With over 11 craft breweries/cideries within the capital region and counting, there’s always something good brewing in town.

The Fredericton Taproom Trail makes an ideal date; the passport-style map lists and shows the locations of 11 taprooms around the city – a great way to take advantage of our amazing trail system! BYOB: Bring your own bike, (or easily rent one downtown from Savage’s, Second Nature Outdoors or Radical Edge) and discover the local craft beverage scene through the #FredTapTrail! That’s a whole lotta tasty brew to choose from and lots of stamps to redeem for swag!

5. A Work of Art

I'm sure your date is a real work of art, but let's not forget the art that surrounds us in Fredericton! Grab a cold drink and take a stroll through the downtown core to visit some amazing art outside in the sun! Use the digital map to track all the art and find out where to find it!

6. Sunset and Chill

Looking to enjoy a nice view (besides your date)? Grab some cool refreshing ice cream from any of Fredericton’s ice cream joints and take a drive out to enjoy some scenic views of the sunset at one of Fredericton’s beautiful sunrise/sunset locations! Nothing beats a sky full of colors, your favorite ice cream flavor and your special someone!
