Hey Boston fediverse! I'm looking for places to eat outdoors in Boston, with coverage if there is rain. Any suggestions? Searching is proving difficult, especially for finding info on if there is coverage outdoors. Update: I asked before, and got great recommendations, but I'm finding the covered outdoors part difficult to confirm. #food #foody #Boston #OutdoorDining #Outdoors

    @kristinHenry@vis.social I know Veggie Galaxy in Central Square has outdoor seating, and I *think* they have coverings for rain.

    @jztusk@mastodon.social @kristinHenry@vis.social Yelp also has street photos sometimes, but they might not be up to date.

    @kristinHenry@vis.social I’m with you on the covered part being hard to confirm from afar, especially knowing whether it’s covered as in an umbrella, or as in a roof. I ended up either walking by places or calling them other times I was there. This time (last week), the one evening it rained, I ended up ordering food for pickup from the restaurant at my hotel and eating it in my room. Felt like I wimped out, but was tired from a long work day and it takes energy to search for places.

    @kristinHenry@vis.social Grendel's Den in Harvard has outdoor seating with umbrellas that we've used for foss gatherings with folk with health considerations before. There's a fair few places in the sea port too. North end is hit and miss. I don't really know anywhere in Dorchester or Roxbury that has outdoor seating the umbrellas. Not until you get to places like milton anyway. Boston do have a outdoor dining program, but no city list of businesses with licenses unfortunately.

    @kristinHenry@vis.social Rosebud in Davis has a little side patio that is permanently covered!

    @kristinHenry@vis.social Offering up this spreadsheet of #Boston area covid conscious stuff, last updated ~2025. It includes a tab of outdoor dining options across the metroplex. This came from the New England Still COVIDing discord. (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13VZlmx8N8AO4vFyXMUsLdnQDN9ppNLA-0nnyqQdwAMA/edit?usp=drivesdk #MaskUP #NewEngland
