Stop one needs to be a café because even after a lazy morning, you might need a pick me up for a busy day of romantic activities. Try the Italian-inspired Signorelli and order an Instagram-worthy coffee or indulge in pastries and a Nutella hot chocolate with a generous serving of fluffy marshmallows.

Now that you're fuelled up and ready to go, it’s time to get out into nature! Hand-in-hand, stroll through the parklands and down by the river and canals. Look out for the cool art installations with the help of the art and culture guide. Though it’s winter and the trees aren’t blooming quite yet, the London Blossom Garden is still a great place for some peace and quiet and from there, loop around and maybe grab a snap with the Olympic rings for the memories.

Just like that it’s time for lunch. Hackney Bridge is always a great bet for a bite to eat as there’s choices for whatever you feel like. Why not go for a large pizza from Made in Puglia to share - they often have a special lunch time deal on which helps the budget on what can be an expensive day. Maybe your hands will touch as you both reach for the final slice – honestly, the romcom writes itself!

If you're on the look out for somewhere you can show off your near-perfect Pac-Man skills and impress your date, you'll want to pop into Four Quarters to try your hand at the different arcade games (and tasty drinks) on offer.
The Park is the perfect place to catch a sunset so to keep the romance levels high, why not nab a spot by the canal at Here East so you can watch the winter sun drop down below the horizon.

Now a lot of people love the fine dining experience, and there are plenty of places on the Park for that. If your vibe is more casual, we've got something relaxed and equally delicious for you. Randy’s Wing Bar is the place and, you guessed it, eating our body weight in chicken wings is the name of the game.
They’ve got a special offer for a Valentines High Tea Platter with all the trimmings. It’s part eating challenge, part romantic evening and we love it as a fun take on Valentine’s Day dining.
