A date where you both have something to do
Dinner is fine. Dinner is also two hours of maintained eye contact and a bill.
Ice-free curling gives you something to actually do. You slide stones down a purpose-built sheet, try to knock theirs out of the way, and find out fairly quickly how competitive they are. Almost nobody has played before, so neither of you starts with an advantage.
Between shots there’s a bar, street food and a DJ. The conversation happens around the game instead of across a table.
Couples activities at Vinegar Yard and Chelsea
The two venues give you quite different evenings.
Chelsea sits inside the winter village at Chelsea Winter Illuminations. Lights everywhere, après-ski styling and a busier, louder feel. Pick it when you want the setting to do some of the talking.
Vinegar Yard is near London Bridge, close to Borough Market and Bermondsey Street. It’s the one to choose if you’re building a longer evening around the area.
Both venues run the same packages, so the only real decision is which side of the river you want to be on.
