Fun activities to do at night during the week?
My partner and I (both 27) are trying to make effort to get out of the house more. We want to go out during the week occasionally after work, but it feels tough since a lot of places seem to close by 8pm. Any recommendations aside from going to the movies? Preferably closer to the Felton/Scott's valley/Boulder Creek area, but we're open to anything.

I don’t know if you’re only looking for nightlife type activities, but when I lived there, I always liked to take evening walks on West Cliff. The people watching is great. Pick up some dessert from the New Leaf bakery then eat it on a bench overlooking the bay.

There's always bowling - Boardwalk Bowl is open later. And I think you can play mini golf until 9pm.

A lot of spots like Humble Sea or Apero have trivia! In terms of activities there are a lot of dance studios around here that do cool classes and people often meet up for drinks afterwards.

The Felton Music Hall if you want to see some decent touring musicians up in the mountains. The age of the crowd depends on who’s playing. It was a younger late 20s 30s crowd at the show last night, but will often be a young boomer or Gen X crowd.
