Best outdoor DRINKING spots

[Tim Dolan]

I had to ask. A day as nice as today begs the question. As for me, it's a good bet I could be seen at an outdoor table at the Bishop's Collar later today.

Day load drinking is always good at "the concrete beach", Macys crossing.

The place on the Parkway? I'm not drinking at any bar that has a neon pink "GO PREP" sign in it .

The deck at Standard Tap is quite nice, especially on a clear night. And well, ya cant beat a roster of only local tap beer. Food is great across the board, especially any seafood.

The deck at the Manayunk Brewery is also quite imprfessive; Chris Firey's beers are terrific, especially his dark brews, and the brick oven pizza, rotisserie meats and chicken, and mahognay wings are equally impressive. Pick a spot on the LEFT side of the huge deck to avoid the crush of bodies than mingle rudely near the deck entrance, and sit near the smaller thatched roof bar; great views of the Schuylkill, an old bridge and the almost silent stream of expressway traffic. Really pretty at dusk too.

The roof deck at Coyote Crossing in West Chester and Coyote Crossing's outodoor patio in their Conshohocken outpost are magical outdoor spaces, decent Tex-Mex food, decent beers on tap and killer tequila selections at both places.
