Lena’s Wood-Fired Pizza and Tap

Lena’s outdoor oasis was a huge hit over the summer and the party won’t be stopping for the fall and winter. Lena’s has both fire pits as well as heat lamps to keep you warm while enjoying some wood-fired pizza and beer. This Rosemont institution is always a crowd pleaser, especially for pizza lovers.

Hops N’ Shine 

Hops N’ Shine in North Del Ray has a heater outdoor patio to help keep you warm while you enjoy one of the many great beers on tap. Hops N’ Shine was quite popular over the summer with their expansive outdoor patio. 

Brut Champagne and Wine Bar 

One of Allison’s favorite hangouts in Old Town off of South Royal Street has heat lamps stationed outside for outdoor dining. Come cozy up for a glass of wine and a yummy small plate. We love the Rosé!

Sweet Fire Donna’s & Tequila and Taco

If you’re in the mood for BBQ or Mexican and want to dine outdoors, then you’re in luck. These two popular spots operated by Homegrown Restaurant Group in Carlyle both offer heated outdoor seating.

Augie’s Mussel House and Beer Garden 

Augie’s has something for everyone. Whether you want to sit outside and watch a game or enjoy a delicious bowl of mussels, then Augie’s is the place for you! We also love the pretzel bites with beer cheese and the Philly Cheesesteak egg rolls.

Hummingbird Cafe

Craving some fish by the water? Check out Hummingbird Cafe on Union Street near the riverfront. Their heated patio along with their crafted cocktails are sure to keep you warm on a chilly night. We love the oysters and jumbo shrimp!

The Garden

The Garden and their huge heated outdoor space is a favorite among locals for outdoor dining in Del Ray. From their oyster happy hour to a variety of draft beer and craft cocktail selections, you really can’t go wrong at The Garden. They now also offer breakfast sandwiches, beignets, and Swing’s coffee on the weekend.
