Silicon Valley is magical in spring and summer, and there's nothing better than enjoying a meal or drink outside. Here are the five best spots for a picnic or a patio lunch to enjoy the warm weather.
With heaters and TVs, Brew City Grill is the ultimate hangout place to bring friends and family. Have a delicious meal with a refreshing drink under the umbrellas on Brew City Grill's spacious patio. Their specialty pizza, topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, red onion, roasted tomatoes, charred peppers and mushrooms—is a big hit. 651 W. Hamilton Ave., Ste. 1070, Campbell
Keeping the doors open, the patio at District San Jose flows seamlessly from the indoor area. Customers can enjoy the expansive selection of wines, whiskeys or cocktails with their meal. A fan-favorite here is the West Indie-spiced wings served with a dipping sauce. District is a great spot for happy hour, too. Multiple locations
Scott's Seafood opened in 1976 and has continued to provide award-winning quality and sustainable food and drinks ever since. On a chilly night, diners can warm up with heater lamps on the patio. It is the perfect location for a romantic date night or a fun outing with friends and family. The specialty dessert of a raspberry jack—served with French vanilla ice cream, raspberries and whipped cream—is the best way to end the night under the patio lights. 200 S. First St., Ste. 10, San Jose
The patio dining at La Catalana transports you right to Spain with the help of fairy lights, cobblestone and grass flooring and wooden tables. A must-try dish? The seafood paella, a classic Spanish dish. Pair the meal with one of the many wines La Catalana has on its menu. 3720 N. First St. Ste. A, San Jose
This bohemian-style restaurant serves a Cal-Indie cuisine with fresh and authentic ingredients and flavors, all on a chic patio setting. Get cozy on one of the outdoor chairs and couches, and start off your dinner with the Ettan salad, filled with mixed greens, avocado, grapes and pumpkin seeds with a fermented curry leaf chutney. 518 Bryant St., Palo Alto
