Feeling sweet? Here’s a roundup of the loveliest local gifts KC has to offer for your Valentine.

For the Choco-holic:

There is no shortage of excellent chocolate in Kansas City– from age-old classic André’s, to coffee-forward Maps Chocolate bars, we have plenty of cacao to tickle your taste buds. But you really can’t go wrong with these adorable Christopher Elbow heart-shaped chocolates, available as a set– or, most adorably, as a single chocolate in a cute lil mini pink box.

For the Wine Lover:

Pick the brain of the brilliant wine shopkeepers at local favorites Underdog or Cellar Rat to find the perfect bottle. Or for the experience lover, try your hand at a tasting and tour at Amigoni Winery– you’ll learn a lot, and find some local wines to love! Looking to really impress your S.O.? Tickets to a dinner in the wine room at Farina will really blow them away.

For the Book Worm:

Coffee table books make the perfect cherry on top of a styled table– and there are no shortage of beauties available at Jorjy in Brookside. More of a fiction lover? Treat your date to a glass of bubbles at the bar at Our Daily Nada, and let them pick out their own book after. Talk about a dream date.

For the Accessorizer:

EB & Co in Brookside boasts the cutest accessory bar in town– from velvet headbands, to metallic wristlets, cozy scrunchies and statement earrings galore– you can find something for any galentine in your life. Or swing by Sierra Winter Jewelry’s brand-new showroom, open from 10-5 on Valentine’s Day in Waldo (7017 Oak St), to pick up something shiny made by the esteemed local designer. Anything that comes in a Sierra Winter box is a sure-fire way to show someone you love them.

For the Art Appreciator:

Some of my best art finds have been from scouring the antique markets of KC– I always seem to score at River Market Antiques, and West Bottoms shops like Bella Patina and Bottoms Up. If your sweetie is an artist themselves, then there is no better treat than a trip to Artist & Craftsman & Supply– let them pick up a few materials to try a new medium. Want to try something together? Art classes at the Nelson make for the most thoughtful gift.

For the Action Seeker:

Shuffleboard at Boulevard’s Rec Deck is SO much fun– the perfect Valentine’s date for the duo that loves a little competition. Grab a beer, learn the ropes from one of the Rec Deck staff and shoot your shot.

For the Movie Marathoner:

Take your date to Rio Theater for an old school, indie movie experience– the neon lights, the candy, the cozy little seats– it’ll be a film to remember, no matter what you watch. Or for lovers of the old Tivoli theater, buy your love tickets to a screening at the Nelson art gallery– Tivoli has found new life within the museum’s walls! Check the schedule here.

For the Foodie:

There’s nothing a foodie loves more than a trip to a new spot (trust me, it’s my favorite thing in the world). Take your honey out to a romantic breakfast at Seven Swans Creperie– their new shop on Washington is as cute as can be. Or, make a night of it, and go try several restaurants withing Strang Hall– everything from street tacos, to artisinal pizza, fried chicken and milkshakes, and beyond awaits you at this magical new food hall in downtown OP.

For the Health Nut:

Heat things up with a giftcard to the infrared sauna experience at Sweatheory– the perfect place to escape the February cold. For the health conscious Valentine, no gift is more unique– or local– than the handcrafted selections of Apothé, available at Unbakery. Choose from the loose leaf teas or the perfectly pink Liver Lover, and your honey will be detoxing in no time.

For the Beauty Buff:

Treat your gal pal to the ultimate beauty brow experience with Wax & Honey– it’s so relaxing, I nearly fall asleep every time– and the end result makes you feel like a star. Or pop into Welwythn in Prairie Village to browse their selection of beautifully designed and health-conscious goods– who doesn’t love a new lipstick?
