The 15 Best Outdoor Dining Spots in New York's Southern Tier

A few weeks ago, I took a flight out of Binghamton to Orlando just to get away from winter for a few days, to enjoy some sunshine and mid-80s temperatures. And that's just how it turned out.

During my short stay, I enjoyed a couple of dinners in an outside restaurant setting. It's been so long since I've had the chance to do that during the winter months. But soon, we'll get to experience warm temperatures and sunshine as well. and I'm looking forward to outdoor dining throughout the Southern Tier of New York and Northeast Pennsylvania.

But I thought, maybe there are some area restaurants that offer outdoor dining that I'm not aware of, so that's why I asked the question on social media - "Where in the Southern Tier do you go for the best outdoor dining spot?"

As always, our listeners came through with some great places for outdoor dining to enjoy during the upcoming warm weather months. Here are some of the local restaurants that were mentioned. If you know of any others not on this list, let me know.
