Date ideas in Stratford

17 Endeavour Square, London E20 1JN 

If you’re looking for a romantic dinner in Stratford, Figo is the place to be. A perfect blend of modern and traditional Italian cuisine, sit yourself in the scenic dining area complete with floor to ceiling windows and an open plan kitchen. The staff love to share their expertise and can assist with pairing the perfect wine for any dish you and your partner are enjoying. Pizza, pasta, and risotto are on the menu, bringing the flavours of Italy to IQL and allowing you to pretend you’re in romantic Rome or magnificent Milan for an evening.  

9 Endeavour Square, London E20 1JN 

Immerse yourself in the Alps while visiting Haugen, located in IQL’s own timber Pavilion. Wrap up warm and get cosy on Haugen’s rooftop terrace with a glass of wine or a classic cocktail or share a romantic cheese fondue with baguette and new potatoes (or a Swiss chocolate fondue with a fruit selection if you have a sweet tooth!) 

2 Montfichet Road, London E20 1EJ 

For a more unusual date idea, head over to Bat & Ball Stratford for some competitive fun with darts, ping pong and pool. Compete in classic table tennis or add an alcoholic twist with beer or prosecco pong.  Later in the night (maybe after a few more drinks!), head up to the booths for some karaoke – why not serenade your partner with a love song? 

2nd Floor, Westfield Stratford, London, E20 1ET 

All Star Lanes is a retro bowling alley right here in Stratford, the perfect setting for a date night activity. Share a lane with your date and go head-to-head and add some competition by making the loser buy the next round. The unlucky player can then drop by the bar for some drinks, with various beers, wines, and spirits on offer. If cocktails are more your thing, give a sharing cocktail made for 2 a go, like the aptly named “Love Potion No. 9”.
