The Return of Waterfront Dining – and More Outdoor Excitement!

April is looking like it’s going to be a sweet month for outdoor fun in NYC!

While the pandemic made outdoor dining the only way you could visit your favorite restaurants for a period of time, the beginning of the spring season means the reopening of venues which are actually known for it.

Ellington in the Park, located in Riverside Park by 105th Street (just past the dog run), just announced it would be reopening on April 7. If you’re not familiar with the venue, it’s a great place to bring your dog for some seaside dining and drinking, featuring two levels of river-facing space and live music. The website indicates upcoming events will be listed soon.
