History and nature balance out in a most alluring way at the Heritage House in Riverside. This is a great romantic date destination because you will get to gaze upon the 1.3 acres of orange groves as well as various historical pieces that are on display at the nearby Heritage House, a 19th century Victorian home that has been restored to an incredible detail. This home reflects what life was like back in the 1800s, and even then, the reliance on the citrus crops was as significant as it is today. You'll no doubt remember your time here with your date as the area is incredibly picturesque, historic, and uniquely California.
Feel like going out tonight but don't feel like dressing up and dealing with too much glitz? Then head to Morgan's Tavern in Riverside. This is one of those places that could be categorized as a “dive bar,” but in the case of Morgan's, that's entirely a good thing! This charmingly unassuming nightlife hangout features karaoke, music videos, an excellent jukebox and a full bar. There's even an inviting patio area to enjoy if you feel like taking in the night air.
