Alfresco Dining

Thank goodness spring is finally here! There is nothing i love more than spending a spring evening eating great food on an outdoor patio. Who has the best patios for warm-weather dining?

Peaceful surroundings and wonderful food.

I love hanging out on their decks. In fact, on the way home this evening, one of the local radio stations was talking to one of the owners about a new deck they're building that should be done soon. I know I'll be there checking it out, sipping a cold drink and watching the boats cruise by as the sun sets on the Ohio.

Pardon the pun, but it's just "ducky"........

Went recently and they had a stuffed Grouper special that was INCREDIBLE. Service is down home, honest, and on the spot. It was a bit chilly on the deck, however, they did have several portable heaters on which helped take off the chill.

We have outdoor seating at Melillo's. Italian music, Italian food and wine and a bocce ball court. Hope to see you soon. Also, don't forget that we are opening on Saturdays for brunch 9-2 beginning in April.

I like sitting outside at El Mundo's. They have great margaritas.

The best restaurant patio ever...Allo Spiedo.

Good times.

I vote for the deck at August Moon. It feels like you're sitting up in the trees.

Barring any inclement weather, our glorious patio will be open Monday- Saturday for lunch, and Tueday-Saturday for dinner beginning next week, with some groovy live music on Fri/Sat night. We are also giving some hard thought to opening for Sunday brunch in mid- April. This year, much like before, our patio will be the envy of the metro area..........Of course, you gotta come to New Albany to enjoy it!

I have to concur with Ashley there. The Allo Spiedo patio was so relaxing and when the wisteria was blooming was so pretty. May it RIP.

North End Cafe
Avalon
Bristol--Bardstown Rd.
Meridian Cafe--it feels like eating on my parent's back patio & they always bring water out for my dog!

I had dinner with my girlfriend last night at Carley Rae's on first and Oak. Was there last Wednesday for the Beer Tasting and I will be back for the beer! Their list is amaizing! The food however left alot to be desired. And I am going out on a limb here that our server was very very new. But all in all its a nice place for great beers that you can't find at most places.

Good times.

ditto that. I used to love chillin' out in the gravel with some killer pizzas and a few bottles of vino. Good times indeed.

Sweet Peas on Frankfort Ave has a patio as well as a covered porch where the windows completely open up and you feel like you are outside.
