One of my favorite things about spring is the beginning of the outdoor eating season! The thought of eating out and not having to clean up afterward sounds like the biggest treat, doesn't it?!
Eating out with little kids can be really tough, but eating outside makes the dining out with kids' experience so much easier! It's automatic entertainment!
Here are some restaurants in our area with outdoor seating that are popular with local residents.
