Date night ideas in Oshawa are easier once you pick a pace. For something quiet, Brew Wizards on Celina Street lets you open a tab, pull Catan off the shelf and pay when you leave. For a little more noise, Yuk Yuk's runs live stand-up Wednesday to Saturday at 8pm, and the club menu covers dinner.
If you'd rather make something together, SplatterRoom inside the Oshawa Markets gives you a blacklit room, paint blasters and your own five-song playlist for 20 minutes. Finish downtown at Riley's Pub on King Street East, where the upstairs pool tables come with sofas for between games.
