August 31 marked National Eat Outside Day, and to celebrate – we are sharing some top recommendations in the area.
With the last few weeks of summer ahead, now is the time to make the most of outdoor seating before the darker nights and winter weather hit.
This is not an ordered or exhaustive list, just some highly recommended spots...
