Oxford, Oxfordshire
The pandemic has brought lots of change to all our lives and across many businesses in the tourism sector. One area that has successfully emerged is a new fashion for outdoor dining. Alfresco dining is extremely popular across the continent where most restaurants, cafes and bars offer outdoor seating for you to sit and enjoy the beautiful weather, good food and great company. This has become increasingly popular here in the UK, as we head for the relative safety of outdoors, and businesses across the South develop new outdoor spaces for us to enjoy a great outdoor dining experience in, no matter what the weather. As we prepare for hopefully another scorching summer in the South East, there is a host of new and exciting places to enjoy alfresco dining.
Take a look below for some of the finest resturants, bars and cafes with outdoor seating in South East England, where you can meet friends, sample some of the region's great delicious cuisine and hopefully the sunny weather too.
Discover a host of other dining options by visiting some of the destination dining out pages across the South East, including Eastbourne, Southampton, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Poole, Gosport and Maidstone
Don’t forget to book ahead and Know Before You Go. Please contact the restaurants, pubs and attractions direct to book and to check availability. Look out for the 'We're Good To Go' industry standard and supporting mark.
Discover a host of great resturants, pubs and cafes with outside seating in Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Sussex, Kent, Surrey, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Dorset.
