Valentine's Events in Jersey City

While I personally am of the opinion that you should engage in good drinks and good food as often as humanly possible, regardless of your romantic situation, Valentine's Day is well-known as a day for delicious indulgence, so why not enjoy it? There are plenty of options around Jersey City to help you out.

First up, a pre-Valentine social event for both singles and couples next Tuesday, Feb 11th!

Hosted by Garden State Food Tours and held in the cozy and creative atmosphere of LITM, this event promises you two custom cocktail creations from LITM as well as some decadent desserts from All Kinds of Whoopie and Milk Sugar Love for $35/person. In addition, LITM will be running some other drinks specials that evening so you can keep the fun going and maybe make some new friends with a little liquid courage! As a date or just a nice evening out, this event will be sure to put you into the Valentine's Day spirit. More information and tickets are available here.
