for those of you visit Boston in the summertime and want to enjoy brunch, lunch or dinner outside on a patio here are ten of the best places in the city from fine dining to casual and everything in between. 

1. Deuxave – at the corner of Commonwealth and Massachusetts Ave at the best French restaurant in the city, the patio here without question is the best in Boston. http://www.deuxave.com/

2. Banyan Bar & Refuge – the patio here is a very close second, located in the South End it is just as intimate and quiet and for those that prefer Asian cuisine over French this is the spot for you. https://www.banyanboston.com/

3. Parish Cafe – if you just want to relax and have a beer and appetizers this is your spot, at the corner of Arlington and Boylston. http://parishcafe.thelowerdepths.com/

4. Saltie Girl – this sunken patio offers the quiet and peace that most of the other patios on Newbury street don’t. https://www.saltiegirl.com

5. The Berkeley – located inside the Hotel AKA is another place to grab a beer or glass of wine before the night begins.  https://www.theberkeleyboston.com

6. Stephanie’s on Newbury – this is probably the largest patio in the city but on any summer night it is packed.  At the corner of Newbury and Exeter st, if you want to be in the middle of the action this is your spot.  http://www.stephaniesrestaurantgroup.com/stephanies-on-newbury/
