Denver is a great place for dates. There are activities for any personality type. Sometimes, the possibilities are too much. Date ideas turn into nightmares because no one knows where to go.
Here are a few date ideas to get you going on your next date in Denver:
Watch a Sunset at a Park
Take some food, grab a drink, and watch the sunset from one of Denver’s many parks. The different colors of the sunset paint the sky like nothing else. Here are the best parks for a gorgeous sunset set in Colorado:
Inspiration Point — You can see Pike’s Peak from here. As the name suggests, this point is inspiring — and breathtaking.
Ruby Hill Park — Great for sledding, but also a great setup for a picnic at sunset.
City of Kunming Park — A small park, but a perfect spot for a picnic in the evening.
Confluence Park — A popular place where Cherry Creek and South Platte River meet. This park is also a short walk from the Aquarium, Pepsi Center and downtown.
City Park — Want to see the city skyline with mountains in the background? Go on the west side of the Natural Science Museum and you will find that iconic picture you’ve always wanted.
Brewery Tours
If your favorite drink is a cold beer after work, take your date on a brewery tour. Denver is home to dozens of craft brewing companies, and each company has their unique flavor. Take a tour and sample your favorite beers.
Bike Ride
Denver has close to 300 days of sunshine every year. Make the most of the sun and take a bike ride around Denver. If you don’t own a bike, use the B-Cycle bikes stored all over the city. You rent these bikes for a few dollars an hour, park at certain locations, and have a great time exploring the city of Denver.
Find Groups Online
Check out Meet-up.com to find groups both you and your date will enjoy. Finding a meet-up can help you both meet new people who share your same interests. There are groups all over Denver who play board games, video games, and puzzle games. Speaking of puzzles…
Escape Room
If you and your date love puzzles, try out an escape room. There are different scenarios you have to solve, and each room is unique to each scenario. This is a great way to spend time with your partner.
You will also understand your partner more than you realize. How will he or she respond to a challenge? Will they hide in a corner, waiting for the time to run out, or will they try to solve the puzzle, giving their all to win?
If you’re looking at an escape room for your next date idea, look to EscapeWorks Denver for the best puzzle rooms in the Denver area. We can handle pairs or groups, and our rooms will exercise your brain. One hour in, one way out, and one night of fun.
If you have any questions, contact us. We will be happy to assist you.
We had a great time at EscapeWorks! We tried out the Casino Heist game, and it’s without a doubt one of the most difficult games we’ve ever played. We escaped with just a minute left! The puzzles are complex and satisfying, and a couple of them really stumped us! Thank goodness for our Game Master, Cooper! He gave us hints at just the right time, and really helped us navigate the game. Actually, every staff member we interacted with was lovely. Definitely recommend!

Visiting from Atlanta, my BF and I made last minute reservations to do an escape room ahead of a comedy show we were going to see. It was an absolute BLAST! We were paired with a really awesome couple in their mid-30s and we were able to escape the Speakeasy with about 14 mins to spare. It was challenging but so fun. Brian and Conner were great and we will come back next time we're in Denver.

Me and my family did the vampire hunter room. It was an absolute blast! The ambiance and decor set the scene perfectly and Dakota the game master was super friendly, helpful, and funny. Me and my family finished with 12 minutes to spare so I think most should have no problem making it through. Expect to do some head-scratching but with every puzzle solved being rewarding and satisfying! Definitely coming back!

EscapeWorks has THE coolest escape rooms I have ever been to. They’re way more high tech than the other ones I have ever been to! Wyatt was our Game Master and he was very enthusiastic and charismatic describing our game room. He believed in us to get through the game but knew exactly when to provide us a clue. 10/10 would recommend and do it again

This was so much fun and the best escape room we’ve experienced! The staff here are friendly. Dakota and Austen went out of their way to help us with our mix up we had. They were kind and understanding on taking the time to making it a fun experience for my 8 yr old nephew. He wants to come back! I do wish there was a kids pricing though that’s the only down fall. We played the Egyptian pharaoh room. Amazing detail to the decor and a fun puzzle setting! **Fair warning there is about 25 steps to enter this facility so if you are handicap, maybe call ahead of time to see if there’s an elevator. The parking is also a challenge, we paid $30 for parking! *I do wish there was a count down clock or an announcement for when your time is getting close to ending.

Visiting Denver for the first time on a girls trip, we decided to do an escape room here at EscapeWorks and we do not regret it. The staff is super nice and friendly, the facilities are great and clean, and it was an overall great experience. The Speakeasy room that we chose was so much fun. Perfect blend between a great story and challenging puzzles. Would definitely visit again! Thanks Cole for being a great Game Master!
