A fantastic view in one of the most iconic locations in London is bound to get you some serious brownie points with your better half. Take her to Searcy's Bar at The Gherkin – which you'll have exclusive access to thanks to a certain DesignMyNight – and you'll be treated to world class food and drinks, including a wonderful list of cocktails and Champagne.
For a delicious dinner to impress your wife, take her to JW Steakhouse for the perfect wine and dine experience. Treat her to quality prime beef and delicious sides, and don't forget to hit the bourbon bar – especially if it's date night.
Giving a classic date night a modern twist, this excellent bar and mini-golf venue in the heart of the City is one of the best activities to treat the other half to. Sink a couple of cocktails and then get ready to hit the course for round-after-round of high-octane putting.
Treat your wife to a romantic evening of gypsy jazz over at Ronnie Scotts, as Benoit Viellefon are set to take over the stage for a stellar performance. Feel like you're in the stylish, Parisian cafes of the 20s and 30s, where this genre first emerged, and sip a tasty glass of vino.
Treat your beer-loving wife to a trip to Brewhouse & Kitchen Hoxton. This isn't just a stylish spot to knock back pints, but it's also home to all kinds of exciting activities, from masterclasses and tasting events to brewery experience days, where she'll be able to create her own beer.
Does your wife deserve a little pampering? Of course she does. To make her feel really special, take her to The Pretty Parlour - a unique venue in the heart of Ealing where you can get your nails done while enjoying Veuve Clicquot Champagne and cocktails. They're offering hot towel treatments, manicures, head massages and more in this stylish space, all with a drink in hand.
Looking to treat your other half to an authentic, home-cooked meal like no other? Then take her to the intimate Fengzhen Supper Club, which can be found at the house of talented host Jay, situated in Crystal Palace. You'll get to enjoy a ten-course tasting menu of Chinese and South East Asian cuisine like Enoki mushroom salad and grilled lemongrass chicken with red chilli dipping sauce, paired with BYOB drinks, all for just £65 per person.
Dalloway Terrace is a beautiful, tranquil place to eat with your wife in London. Named after Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway, the venue carries a distinctly British, elegant charm throughout, while the kitchen serves up delicious treats from breakfast to brunch to Afternoon Tea. Even better is that the 'indoor-outdoor' concept of the terrace means that it's a gorgeous spot for the summer months, and once winter rolls around, it's delightfully heated.
