Who wouldn’t want a monthly pizza subscription? Every month, they’ll get to devour the yummiest pizza brands in the nation (think Brooklyn’s coal-oven pies and Chicago deep-dish ‘za). Choose from two subscriptions: Three month or six months. A food of the month club always makes one of the best Christmas gifts for boyfriend foodies.

Matching pjs are always a good idea. Whether you choose a holiday pair for Christmas day or a fun print to wear year round (peep the sushi pajamas), it’s a Christmas gift for you and him. Cozy up with these winter gifts, as well.

A temperature-controlled coffee mug? Check! We tried the Ember Mug and LOVE that you can adjust the temperature so it stays perfectly warm all morning. And the sleek design is enough to add to cart. He’ll love not having to warm up his cup of joe mid-morning.

This bucket list scratch-off poster is all over social media. Filled with 100 date ideas, trips and new experiences to try, he’ll always have something new to look forward to. It’s a fun way to start planning for the next year, too. He’ll be saying “Been there, done that,” in no time.

This Christmas gift for your boyfriend is for the couples who recently started dating. We’re Not Really Strangers is a purpose-driven card game for couples, friends and families. The game covers three levels: perception, connection and reflection. Prompts are designed to build connection with each other and help you better understand your partner. I bought this game early in my relationship to build connection with my long-distance boyfriend. We love it so much we make it a point to play every few months.
