Greater Boston for 2024

When the sun comes out in Boston, you know it’s time to grab a seat on a restaurant patio and soak it all in.

Starting Wednesday, over a hundred establishments will offer outdoor seating, according to the City of Boston.

“It’s like recreating a piazza in Italy,” said Siddell. “There is nothing like that city vibe when you’re walking through the streets as people are eating, drinking, laughing and socializing.”

Like Newbury Street in Back Bay, Boston’s North End sees a wave of business when the weather gets nicer and the patio opens up.
