THERESA, WI – JUNE 27: A worker scoops curds as whey is removed from a vat of Colby cheese at Widmer’s Cheese Cellars on June 27, 2016 in Theresa, Wisconsin. Widmer’s is an artisanal cheesemaker that has produced cheese in the same facility for four generations much the same way as it was made by the founder, with traditional open vats and curds being stirred and scooped into molds by hand. Record dairy production in the United States has produced a record surplus of cheese causing prices to drop. Despite this surplus Widmer’s says it continues to see growth as consumers continue to gravitate toward craft-made food products. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images) /

4. Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen

When you look at this list (and, we certainly hope that you do), we can really thank the Orlando for bringing us such great concepts for a beautiful Valentine’s date night.

A new concept that has arrived on the scene has been the Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen, which is a hybrid between a sports bar and a fancy dining establishment. The scene at Cheddar’s is both fun and intimate, built for couples to come, have some good food and drinks, and celebrate each other.

It has only been recently since Cheddar’s has embarked on a massive expansion.

Founded in Arlington, Texas in 1979, the Cheddar’s took off in Texas, and primarily stayed a Southwest outlet until 2010 when it began to bring its mix of bar and fine-dining to the East Coast.

Seven years after it launched its successful expansion out East, Darden Restaurants snatched up the chain and moved the headquarters from Texas to Orlando. Thankfully, Darden didn’t toy with the concept and kept its hybrid them intact for all to enjoy.

In every city Cheddar’s has set up shop, many have sung praises about the chain, and it has become a hotspot and date night destination for many, and rightfully so. Cheddar’s is a place for both fun and love, especially at night-time. With no kids to worry about, this place will give off the right mood and the right atmosphere to make for an incredible date night.

That’s the Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen way.

No wonder this place has grown so quickly.
