Best Edmonton Date Night Ideas if Your Date Has Food Allergies

Finding date night ideas that are both fun and accommodating to food allergies can be a challenge. Fortunately, Edmonton has plenty of places that will make your special someone feel included and appreciated. From outdoor movies and adventures to interesting museums, get creative and explore the many options available in Edmonton for an unforgettable date!

Outdoor Dates

Rundle Park and Edmonton Valley Zoo are just some of the outdoor activities available in Edmonton that would be perfect for an allergy-friendly date.

Rundle Park

Located in northeast Edmonton, Rundle Park has something for everyone. The park boasts a 18-hole disc golf course, sports fields, and its share of walking trails in the River Valley system.

You can also use the picnic sites to enjoy a meal together while taking in the beauty of the lush green grass and tall trees. There are even winter-specific activities like a toboggan hill if you want to enjoy the cold.

Edmonton Valley Zoo

If you’re looking for a late afternoon date, head to the Edmonton Valley Zoo for an unforgettable experience! With over 250 animals from red foxes to river otters and birds of prey, it's sure to be a wild time. The zoo also offers regular events that focus on conservation education and other fun activities.

The Muttart Conservatory 

Open late on Wednesdays and Thursdays, over 700 species of plants are featured in this botanical garden. You and your date can explore three different biomes, and a 20-minute guided tour can help you learn more about the plants on display.

Museum Dates

For those looking to explore Edmonton's cultural offerings on a date, there are plenty of great options. 

Royal Alberta Museum

Open until 8 p.m. on Thursdays, you can drop by the Royal Alberta Museum. Exhibits range from natural history to human history, and there are often rotating exhibits as well.

TELUS World of Science

Another late afternoon date option — or a night one if there’s a special event — is the TELUS World of Science. From its IMAX theatre to its planetarium, you’ll see incredible sights. And don’t forget the exhibits either, which include space and biology.

Others

These are far from the only museums in the Edmonton area. Others include:

  • Fort Edmonton Park

  • Art Gallery of Alberta

  • Alberta Railway Museum

  • Alberta Aviation Museum

Most close in the late afternoon unless there’s a night event, but they’re a great way to kick off a full night.

Enjoy Edmonton With Food Allergies

Edmonton is full of amazing date night ideas for couples with food allergies. From outdoor dates at the botanical gardens to museum dates, there are plenty of fun activities that can be enjoyed regardless of dietary restrictions. Whether it's a romantic dinner at home after exploring a museum or spending the evening outdoors, Edmonton has just the right spot for couples who want to have a great time.
