And with the hundreds of 2-for-1 specials you’ll find in your App around the city, you’ll be able to afford that elusive, much-needed date night.

You actually clicked on the link to read this article (shem). But it means you feel us and that you’re in need of some #Datespiration for your next ‘parent’s night out’, so here you go:

1 | THE WILD FIG RESTAURANT

Nervous about a real-life date night? Hey, it’s scary leaving the kids for the first time! What about easing into your dating adventures with a lazy Saturday afternoon lunch? The Wild Fig promises a roaring fire, live music and a mouth-watering menu. This is the perfect way to spend a wintery afternoon and still get home in time to tuck your kids into bed.

2 | FIRE AND ICE! RESTAURANT

“Grown up” milkshakes? Say no more. Mama is on her way. Ice-cream and alcohol are the ingredients needed for a great night out… or so I’ve heard. The unique and refreshing decor lends itself to an elegant night of dining.

3 | BEERHOUSE

99 bottles of beer on the wall… that’s right! If you’re a fan of beer and/or making your hubby a happy guy on date night, why not try Beerhouse? Relive your glory days in a relaxed social setting, try some hand-crafted beer and chat about anything other than the kids. The ‘schnacks’ will go down well as a treat with a cold beer in hand! Pizza is now also available on the menu.

4 | HQ, CAPE TOWN

Indecisive? Mind too tired to make a decision? This spot will take away all of the stress of choosing your meal – steak, chips and salad is the order of the day. What more do you actually need? The interior is Parisian-inspired and will leave you feeling like you’re sitting in a contemporary French steakhouse rather than in the middle of Cape Town. Sip a delicious cocktail, enjoy your steak and listen to the live house music.

5 | LA BOHEME

This cosy, welcoming restaurant is perfect for colder evenings. A glass of sangria, a front-row seat to bustling Sea Point life and decadent gourmet meals are sure to ease those parenting frustrations and revive those earlier days of independence!

6 | CAPE TOWN COMEDY CLUB

Open from Wednesday to Sunday, The Cape Town Comedy Club is the perfect place for a night out! In addition to world class comedians and entertainment you can sit back and enjoy great food, laugh and just have fun.

You know what, why not go for a night cap after dinner? I mean, the kids are sleeping already… #FoodForThought. Or is it #DrinksForThought. Who cares, point is – GO ON THAT DATE!
