Noodle
There’s a colorful
little Thai place with
a hidden outdoor
back patio right in
your neighborhood.

specializes in — you
guessed it — noodles.
Come check out the
wide selection for
yourself and relax in
their outdoor space,
shaded in the heat
of the day and lit
by hanging lights at
night, complete with a
tranquil little pond.

14. Skinny’s Cantina

sunset — what could be better? This festive spot
serves Mexican fare and plenty of summerinspired
blended margaritas. Situated near

glowing Manhattan skyline from their front
outdoor patio at night.

15. Diamond Dogs
Sip on fine craft beers and cocktails in
the backyard of Diamond Dogs (34-04
31st Ave.) after a long day. Named for the
David Bowie album, not the food, this pub’s
outdoor space contains benches good for
groups as well as smaller tables. String
lights illuminate the space at night. It’s a
quirky spot to catch up with friends over a
drink.
