Denver bars and restaurants with expanded summer patios
Call it the summer of al fresco dining. Or don’t.
You could call it the summer of systemic racism boiling over, or the summer of the pandemic continuing its hold on countries worldwide.
Whatever you call it, there will be the option to eat outdoors.
