It is cold outside. We are still in the red zone. But that does not mean we have to be bored.

There are still plenty of things to enjoy about living here. We love Kitchener. We love our small business neighbours so this month we wanted to share with you some of our favourite things to do (even during red zone) that we love to do or that we are looking forward to!

The Apollo Cinema Popcorn Pickup

The movies but at home! Apollo cinemas have been keeping us entertained throughout COVID with a lot of really cool events, most notably their regular weekly popcorn pickup. If you’re looking for an awesome Saturday night in, this is a must try. Head over to the Apollo and pick up your favourite movie snacks (there is nothing like fresh popped movie popcorn) and then head home, put on comfy clothes, and enjoy your favourite movie. The Apollo Cinemas does not disappoint. Order between Thursday at 3:00pm to Friday at 3:00pm for delivery on Friday nights or pop in on Saturdays between 3pm - 9pm for some snacks.  https://www.instagram.com/apollocinema/

The Adventurer’s Guild

Three words. Best. Pizza. Ever. With some more down time on their hands the Adventurer’s Guild has been experimenting with their menu and it is so worth it. The Guild now features homemade pizza with pretzel crust. You hear me right, pretzel crust. It is just as good as it sounds. Absolutely recommend it for takeout! http://www.adventurersguildcafe.com/

Sugar Run Bar Cocktails

If you did not already know, the Sugar Run Bar has been offering many of their famous cocktails for takeout! They always sell super fast though so be sure to keep and eye on their instagram to check out the next time their amazing cocktails are available.  https://www.instagram.com/sugarrunbar/

Adventure Rooms (Online Escape Rooms + Crime Solving!)

If you’re as bored as I am, then you’re getting a little desperate for something new to do. Adventure Rooms in Kitchener is offering VIRTUAL ADVENTURE ROOMS. You can do an escape room from the safety of your own home. Choose from either a self directed game or a game with a live host. https://adventurerooms.ca/onlinegames/

Fresh Flowers from Living Fresh

Living Fresh in downtown Kitchener is now back open! Yay! And they also have curbside pickup and delivery options for your comfort and safety. Spring is finally coming this month (even though there is still snow) so it’s the perfect time to bring a little flowers into your life. I feel like we could all use a little colour right now. https://livingfresh.ca/

Two Goblets

Looking for some more unique treats? The Two Goblets (our next door neighbour!) has lots of unique European style grocery items to try. Absolutely worth popping in next time you come to Legacy. We also recommend their perogies! http://twogoblets.com/
