Readers' Choice Roundup: Outdoor Dining and Drinking
Check out these reader suggestions for places to enjoy a meal or a drink outside.
Last week, the beautiful spring weather got us inspired and we asked you, dear readers, to tell us about the best outdoor dining and drinking spots in your communities.
There were lots of wonderful places to choose from, and you let us know which places you think are best.
Today we offer you a roundup of the top picks from a dozen participating Patch sites. These are the places that you, the readers, voted as tops in your community:
- In Smyrna-Vinings, the top spot is Zucca Pizzeria in the Market Village.
- Readers in South Cobb gave the nod to community favorite Mexico Lindo.
- Buckhead Patch readers say the Tavern at Phipps is the best for outdoors dining and drinking.
- Midtown readers said The Nook on Piedmont Park is the best. (The restaurant is celebrating its third anniversary all weekend with drink specials and other promos.)
- The Midway Pub beat out other East Atlanta Patch establishments as the best outdoor patio experience.
- Cascade Patch readers said their favorite outdoor eatery is Landon's Restaurant & Bar.
- Raging Burrito was No. 1 among readers of Decatur-Avondale Estates Patch.
- The patio at Osteria 832 was voted the best by readers of Virginia-Highland-Druid Hills Patch.
- If you're looking for a nice place to eat outside in the North Druid Hills-Briarcliff area, residents suggest Napoleon's on Lavista Road.
- In Brookhaven, Pub 71 was clearly the reader favorite.
- Café Intermezzo was voted the best outdoor patio in Dunwoody in this week's poll.
- And readers in Sandy Springs had a tough time deciding, leading to a three-way tie among Ray’s on the River, Blue Grotto and Brooklyn Café. It’s nice to have choices!
