Valentine's Day is coming up and I know what all of you guys are thinking, “Where should I take that special someone on the 14th?” Well don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. Here are five places to take your significant other on this valentine’s in Winston Salem.
North Pit
If you don’t have a car on campus and you’re nervous of those Uber surges (Hey you never know), stay on campus and hit up north dining. North or New pit is always a great option especially if you’re ballin’ on budget as you only need one swipe per person.
Bistro 34
If you’re really into staying on campus or you have a little extra homework, but you want a fancier option than the pits, look no further than Bistro 34, located inside of the north dining hall. Known for its Steak and Fries, Bistro 34 has quite the extensive and tasty menu that includes a nice alcohol selection if you’re 21. While it may set you back a few food dollars, Bistro is an awesome choice for that special someone.
The Fourth Street Filling Station
Nothing was a warmer welcome to Wake Forest for me than 4th Street Filling Station with my parents the night before move in day. There aren’t a lot places in Winston Salem that can beat their crab cakes or shrimp and grits. Only a small drive or uber off campus and with quality service and down home ambiance, I can guarantee a lovely evening for you and that special someone.
Village Tavern
Down in the pride and joy of Winston Salem also known as Reynolda Village sits Village Tavern, a Wake Forest classic. Whether you’re looking for a valentine's day brunch, lunch or dinner, the Village Tavern has got you covered. Reasonably priced with a classic American vibe, I would recommend their tavern burger for lunch or dinner while I would suggest their eggs benedict for brunch.
Mi Pueblo
Now some of you may question my credibility of having Mi Pueblo this high up on my list, let me explain. For those looking for that classic romantic dinner, Mi Pueblo may not be your move, but for those looking for a fun and entertaining night with their special someone, read a little bit longer. With great service for large parties, an authentic Mexican vibe and cuisine, and an awesome drink selection if you’re 21, Mi Pueblo checks all of the boxes. I would suggest the Carne Asada or Guaca chicken, but no matter what you order you’re in for a Valentine’s day to remember.
