Restaurants that offer outdoor seating

Help! Any restaurants that have outdoor seating? I'm on spring break this week and with the weather being 70 tomorrow, I'd prefer a lunch spot that offers outdoor seating.

Thanks for your suggestions!


Mattar's and Long Valley Pub and Brewery are the two that immediately come to mind in the Hackettstown area.

You may want to double check with these places before going, as sometimes they have a specific date on which the outdoor area opens. Even though it's nice having a great weather day pop up in March, the area might not be ready yet for usage.

I'm pretty sure I saw the tables on the side of TOPO also (the Chiurch Street side).

Oh yeah just remembered, Dairy Queen has riverside seating picnic tables, i have even gotten food elsewhere and parked there to eat (don't tell ;) ) You can also take food and eat outside at Stevens State Park by the hospital. Beautiful place that even has islands with bbq's and picnic tables if your trying to spend the day or weekend i'd recommend it. The camp sites there are so cheap we have rented them to use to hang out until midnight to, then went home to sleep in our owns beds and come right back in the morning to go hiking and campsite cook again ha.....cheaters i know but if you have kids and/or just do not want to ruin your back sleeping on a floor for $15 bucks its a chance to get away from home in your own backyard.

I'm back asking the same question as last March! Haha except this time it's February! It's gorgeous out and I've already called Taphouse, Brew Pub, and Redwoods and none have outdoor seating yet. I know it's an unusually warm day but anyone have any ideas? Dying to dine outside tonight! :)


It usually takes restaurants awhile to get their outdoor seating areas ready for the season. Things (tables/umbrellas/chairs) usually get stored away and need to be cleaned or power washed before use.

Your best bet might be to fire up your grill and eat on your own deck or patio.

Thanks friends! I know it takes restaurants time to set up their outdoor areas so I wasn't sure if we'd find anything but we had such a nice night eating outside at Publick House in Chester. Yum!


Bringing this back to life...…..any new suggestions for restaurants (don't have to be too nearby) that have a great outdoor seating area? Thanks!


I think the only local place that needs to be added to the list is Monchy's.


The Chesapeake Tavern and the Long Valley Pub and Brewery. Both places have outdoor seating.
