Where to Book Have a Great Date Night:

Are you looking for a fun night out? You have to check out the speakeasy at Bodega and the Rest. Bodega is an inconspicuous bar where you can get expertly curated cocktails. You access The Rest by heading down a staircase to enter the speakeasy. The Rest offers a cigar room in a hunting lodge vibe. They offer a large weekly changing cocktail menu and creative dishes. You can enjoy an intimate night out in this small venue or hang out with your friends; either way, Bodega and The Rest will surprise you.

Salt Lake City was known as one of the best beer producers in the West back in the early 1900s. Today, it is all about the craft brewing scene, with Salt Lake City having over a dozen microbreweries and brewpubs for you to grab a drink in, like Beerhive Pub. Utah’s law prohibits draft beer from having an alcohol content of over 5%, although there are some heavier content varieties in bottles and cans.

Other fun things to do for date nights in Salt Lake City are to attend a theatrical, musical, dance, or symphony performance at an area theater, such as Abravanel Hall; listen to tunes at The Urban Lounge or The Depot; or dance the night away at clubs like Sky SLC, Club Try-Angles, or Area 51.

To access The Rest, you must make a reservation. While at The Rest, you must keep your phone tucked away to preserve the secrecy of the experience.
