Best Outdoor Seating
The Blue Willow
READERS' PICK: Quiet, multi-leveled and protected from traffic, the courtyard at The Blue Willow offers a splendid little oasis from the chaos of modern life. Shards of rainbow flash through the air as light plays and refracts through the gentle haze of outdoor misters. It's lovely, it's serene and no animals were harmed in the making of this ambiance.
READERS' POLL RUNNER-UP: Cuppuccinos Coffee House,
3400 E. Speedway. Hmmmm. This is either an expression of existential
angst, or some sort of perverse Zen thing. This upscale strip-mall
coffee house deserves kudos for doing the best it could with a
commercial space that was, to say the least, uninspiring. But
best outdoor seating?There you are, in a parking lot, with traffic
speeding by on East Speedway. The view is cement. And asphalt.
And nothing else. But it is shaded from sun and rain, and you
can bring your dog and chain him up to the wrought iron. There's
something to be said for that.
