Pizza from Logan’s Table. (Ella Dellasanta) Logan’s Table
You can never go wrong with a certificate to a restaurant for a nice dinner on this holiday. Logan’s Table in Leominster is the perfect spot. This is an affordable restaurant that is cute, cozy and delicious. It is also owned by local chef and Oakmont alumni Logan Boudreau. It has a little bit of everything on the menu and the desserts are to die for. If you want to mix it up from the normal restaurants you always go to, this is a perfect spot for a nice dinner that is not too fancy but also not too casual.
- Art on the Rocks

The last local spot that can make someone’s Valentine’s Day extra special is a date night idea instead of an ordinary gift. Pottery painting is an activity that people often forget about, but can be very enjoyable. Art on the Rocks in Gardner right by the movie theaters and Papa Gino’s is a great way that you can get away for a day or night and do painting/pottery with your special someone.
