Fair Weather Means Alfresco Fun in Delco
When it seems that Mother Nature has finally released us from chilly weather, then it’s time to seek greener pastures. And by “greener pastures” in Delco, we mean dining in the great outdoors at your favorite restaurants.
You don’t always have to grab your shades, either: Many of these Delco hot spots offer covered alfresco options for rain-or-shine fun. And some employ tent-like sides and heaters when the temps dip for year-round use. Take that, Mother Nature!
Check out these alfresco gems — cheers!
