Truth be told, dating has gotten expensive. Somewhere along the way, “date night” became code for white tablecloths, hushed conversation, and mentally calculating the bill while pretending to enjoy a tiny entrée. We think that’s backward.
The best dates aren’t the ones where you worry about which fork to use; they’re the ones where you laugh too loud, share everything on the table, and still have money left over for round two.
So we’re issuing a challenge: bring your person to the Warehouse and feast like royalty for around fifty bucks. Here’s exactly how to pull it off.
Step One: The Appy Crawl
Why settle for one dish when you can share three? Our starters are built for two sets of hands. Ease in with the Spinach Dip or the Famous French Onion Dip, then go big with Stacked Nachos (add guacamole, trust us).
If you want maximum mess-and-laugh factor, Loaded Fries or a classic Poutine will do the trick. Nothing breaks the ice faster than fighting over the last cheesy chip.
Wings are another power move. Pick a couple of sauces between Hot, BBQ, Honey Garlic, Lemon Pepper, and Dill Pickle, and see what your date’s choice says about them.
Want to plan your attack before you arrive? Browse the full menu and come in with a strategy.
Step Two: Mains Made for Sharing
Some food is just date food. The Baja Fish Tacos, beer-battered fish, corn salsa, chipotle mayo- come in threes, which means somebody has to give one up. Romance! The Street Tacos and the Quesadilla work the same magic.
More of a fork-and-bowl duo? The General Tao Bowl (crispy chicken or cauliflower, your call) and the Poke Bowl are fresh, filling, and easy on the wallet. Comfort food couple? Split the Warehouse Mac & Cheese and the Spicy Rigatoni and trade plates halfway through.
And if it’s a burger kind of night, the Works 2.0 and the Mushroom Melt are double-pattied proof you don’t need a steakhouse to eat like one.
Step Three: The Drink Hack
A round of drinks shouldn’t cost as much as your meal. Our signature list is stacked with crowd-pleasers like the Swedish Fish and the Pink Warehouse, and the Warehouse Margarita arrives with an inverted Corona, because we believe in abundance.
Beer drinkers can work through local craft pours like the Plainsbreaker Wheat Ale, Microburst Hazy IPA, and Tallgrass Tango.
Not drinking? The vibes still stay high with zero proof; try the Virgin Mojito, the Guava Spritz, or a Shirley Temple.
Step Four: The Vibe Check
Here’s the part no bistro can compete with: the atmosphere. There’s no dress code, no pretension, and no judgment if you order dessert first. Whether you’re soaking up the sun on the Whistler patio or tucked into a booth at The Dime, the music is loud, the energy is contagious, and being yourself is the whole point.
Find the location nearest you; every room has its own personality.
FAQs
Do I need a reservation for date night at the Warehouse?
Nope, we’re a no-reservation kind of place. Just show up, grab a seat, and start ordering.
Is there a dress code?
Not at all. Come as you are. Hoodies and first-date butterflies equally welcome.
Are there vegetarian options?
Plenty. Try the Veggie Burger, the General Tao Bowl with crispy cauliflower, or start with the Spinach Dip.
Can two people really eat and drink for around $50?
Easily. A shared starter, two mains, and a round of drinks lands right around the fifty-dollar mark.
