Restaurants for Galentine's Day in Orlando
The Hampton Social
“Rosé All Day” along International Drive at The Hampton Social. This place is just perfect for Galentine's Day in Orlando or Girls' Night Out.
Contact the restaurant to ask about reserving one of the rosé lounges with bottomless rosé + (1) appetizer for $50 as part of their Galentine's Day special. Available February 1-13, 2025.
The menu is mostly coastal-inspired shareable plates and entrees like the Crab + Shrimp Bruschetta and the Sparkling Seafood Tower. But when we dined with our own girl squad we discovered other yummy plates suitable for anyone not into seafood.
The craft cocktails like the Starlet Espresso Martini served with glitter and the I Glitterally Can't, are fun to sip. And the Hampton Frosé, made with their signature rosé is a fun choice on a warm Orlando afternoon. For the ultimate celebration, you can splurge on a large format cocktail served in a massive seashell.
The shareable donut drops are divine, so save room for dessert! Please note, the food and drinks in these images were provided complimentary.
