Valentine's Day would you rather questions for work give coworkers two fun choices, like a hot chocolate bar or a cookie table, so everyone can answer without talking about their love life. Below are 100 of them in five sets: sweet treats, cards and kindness, funny picks, the office, and quick picks for a chat poll. Six to eight fill a 10-minute meeting opener.

Chocolate and sweet treat would you rather questions

The easiest place to start: everyone has a strong opinion about chocolate, and nobody has to share anything personal.

  1. 1. Would you rather get a box of chocolates with a flavor map or a box where every piece is a surprise?

  2. 2. Would you rather eat only dark chocolate or only white chocolate for the rest of February?

  3. 3. Would you rather have a hot chocolate bar at the office or a cookie decorating table?

  4. 4. Would you rather bite into a chocolate and find caramel or find a cherry?

  5. 5. Would you rather bake heart-shaped cookies for the team or decorate one big cake for everyone?

  6. 6. Would you rather share a giant chocolate chip cookie with the team or get your own tiny cupcake?

  7. 7. Would you rather have candy hearts that print what you are thinking or candy hearts that give you advice?

  8. 8. Would you rather your desk drawer refill with chocolate every Monday or your coffee always stay the perfect temperature?

  9. 9. Would you rather taste-test every chocolate in a factory for a day or design a brand new candy bar?

  10. 10. Would you rather make a hot chocolate bomb on camera or watch someone else try it first?

  11. 11. Would you rather have a pink frosted donut or a red velvet cupcake?

  12. 12. Would you rather eat a dessert that looks perfect and tastes plain or one that looks like a mess and tastes amazing?

  13. 13. Would you rather take the last chocolate in the box or give it away and get the credit?

  14. 14. Would you rather have marshmallows in everything or sprinkles on everything?

  15. 15. Would you rather have a chocolate fountain in the break room or a candy wall in the lobby?

  16. 16. Would you rather eat only heart-shaped snacks or only snacks shaped like your initials?

  17. 17. Would you rather swap snack drawers with a coworker for a week or pick the snacks for the whole office for a month?

  18. 18. Would you rather get a box of candy hearts that all say nice work or a chocolate bar with your name on the wrapper?

  19. 19. Would you rather judge the team bake-off or enter it?

  20. 20. Would you rather top your hot chocolate with whipped cream or stir it with a peppermint stick?

Want the chocolate for real? In a hot chocolate bomb workshop, a kit ships to every guest and a live host shows the team how to make them on camera.

Want a Valentine's event someone else runs?

Questions fill ten minutes. For a full hour that remote and office guests share, a live host runs a workshop or game while you just join. With a kit, the same chocolate or candle supplies land on every desk, so nobody has anything to prep. Prices below are live for your group size.

Hosted games book about 2 weeks ahead. Kit workshops need about 3 weeks for US addresses, or about 5 weeks with guests in Canada or abroad. Reserve online with a 50% deposit, or send your date and get a full plan within 24 hours. See every option on our virtual Valentine's Day party page.

How to play would you rather at work

Share the deck below on a call, or read from the lists above. Four steps turn a list into a game.

Chocolate and sweet treatsWould you rather get a box of chocolates with a flavor map or a box where every piece is a surprise?

  1. Pick one set. Sweet treats or quick picks for a first round, kindness or office questions once people are warm.
  2. Read it, then vote at once. Hands up, one or two fingers on camera, or a chat poll. Everyone answers before anyone explains.
  3. One defender per side. Ask one person from each side for a single sentence on why. That is where the laughs are.
  4. Quit while people want more. Six to eight questions fill about 10 minutes. Save the rest for the next meeting.

In the office, hybrid, on video or in chat

  • In the office: read the question out, then point left for the first choice and right for the second. People move to that side of the room.
  • Hybrid: put the deck on the shared screen so the room and the remote faces see the same card, and let a remote person read each one.
  • On a video call: share the deck above, vote with one or two fingers on camera, and ask the smaller side to defend their pick.
  • In chat: post one question a day in Valentine's week with two emoji reactions to vote, then share the closest result on Friday.

Keep Valentine's Day comfortable for everyone

Every question on this page follows these rules. Use them for any you add.

  • Keep it about friendship, thanks and treats. No questions about dates, crushes, partners or anyone's home life.
  • Make it a choice, never a confession. Every question here can be answered in one word.
  • Not everyone celebrates Valentine's Day, so frame it as a February treat break that anyone can join.
  • Let people pass. A quiet vote counts as playing.
  • Skip alcohol pressure. Treats, cocoa and coffee work for everyone.

Sending something instead of meeting up? Our Valentine's Day gifts for coworkers and clients are chocolate boxes and towers.

Valentine's Day would you rather FAQ

What are good Valentine's Day would you rather questions for work?

The best ones are about chocolate, cards, kindness and the office, not romance. Try “Would you rather get a handwritten note or a shout-out in the team meeting?” or “Would you rather have a hot chocolate bar at the office or a cookie decorating table?” This page has 100 of them in five sets.

How do you keep Valentine's Day icebreakers appropriate at work?

Make them about friendship and appreciation, never dating. Skip questions about partners, crushes or plans for the night, let anyone pass, and frame the round as a February treat break so people who don't celebrate the day can join in too.

How many would you rather questions do you need for a meeting?

Six to eight questions fill a 10-minute opener when you take one defender from each side. A quick chat poll can run through ten quick picks in five minutes. For a 30-minute party round, plan about 20 and mix two or three sets.

How do you play would you rather on Zoom or Teams?

Share the question deck on this page, read the card aloud and have everyone hold up one or two fingers on camera or vote with reactions. Then ask one person from each side to explain in a sentence. The smaller side can win the round to keep it lively.

A hosted kit workshop puts the same supplies on every desk: hot chocolate bombs, candles or handmade cards, with a live host running the hour. Hosted games book about 2 weeks ahead and kits about 3 weeks for US addresses. See our virtual Valentine's Day party for prices.

When is Valentine's Day 2027?
