What’s the best way to put a smile on your Valentine’s face? Flowers? Food? Check out our Putnam County Guide for ideas that will be sure to blow your Valentine away!

If the way to your Valentine’s heart is through their stomach, take them for a nice evening out at one of our many local Putnam County restaurants. There are several amazing restaurants down on Main Street in Hurricane, plus Fireside Grille and Applebee’s are right off the Teays Valley exit, just to name a few! If you’d rather just stay in and stay cozy, a great Valentine’s Day tradition you could start is ordering a heart-shaped pizza from Husson’s Pizza. Be sure not to forget dessert on Valentine’s Day! JRE’s Hallmark at Liberty Square is the place to go for a nice box of chocolates, or you could try one of Bridge Cafe & Bistro’s many homemade desserts. which are all to die for!

If you prefer to keep it traditional with flowers, not only does Mary at Hurricane Floral Gallery make arrangements, she makes truly incredible and unique ones that will make your special lady the envy of all her friends and co-workers. Another traditional gift idea we love is a gift certificate for your loved one to go relax with one of our local massage therapists at Teays Physical Therapy Center, Transcending Massage Therapy or Pure Bliss Spa…OR let yourself benefit from your own gift idea with a couples’ massage. Talk about a win/win! Metanoia Cryo & Massage is taking appointments now for couple’s massages!

If your Valentine doesn’t go for the traditional romantic stuff, shop Valley Outdoors for not just him, but for her too! If he or she is more into hunting and the outdoors than candy and flowers, then this is definitely a one stop shop that will not disappoint!
