Burnt Hickory Brewery - of course, having to be 21 and over to even enter this facility should tell you it's perfect for a couple's night out! Enjoy your night out at "Kennesaw Georgia's Original Brewery" that was founded in 2012 and offers a plethora of "world class beer".
Earl Smith Strand Theatre - this theatre is a "noted landmark" that sits right at the Historic Marietta Square that was once a major motion picture house in 1935, now offers couples (and families) numerous events to sit back, relax, and enjoy sitting in a piece of Marietta history. Checkout their website to see the calendar of events and other things the theatre has to offer: https://earlsmithstrand.org/
Other date options on the Square: Taqueria Tsunami, Two Birds Taphouse, Piastra. These restaurants are open to families, but you may enjoy the atmosphere and the fine dining options better with your adult crew. Marietta Wine Market is also located on the Square and offer wine tastings Wednesdays 5-7 PM and Saturdays 2-4 PM; and don't miss their wine bus tours that they will be posting again soon!
