Outside Dining

[SJSloan]

I consider myself a Disney veteran but when we go we usually seek shelter inside air conditioned places when we eat. However, I haven't ventured out and eaten at a restaurant yet and I am not sure I'll be ready to when we go to Disney next month. With that said, I am trying to make a list of places that has outside dining, both table service and quick service.

Can you more experienced vets or outside diners help me?

So far I have:
Chef Art Smiths Homecoming'
Tortuga Tavern (I think)
Pecos Bills (small area?)
Flame Tree BBQ


But I am sure there are many others. Any help would be great. TIA

Casey's Corner, Yak and Yeti Express, Harambe Market, Sunset Ranch, Woody's Lunchbox, Lotus Blossom and katsura grill have indoor/outdoor. It might be easier to list the places that don't have some kind of outdoor seating. I will go on, Tangierine Cafe, Spice Road, Sommerfest, La Cantina, Rose and Crown, Yorkshire fish and chips, I am sure that I have missed some. Some of the nicer sit down restaurants have bar areas that are outside also.
Edit, I have not added the Disney Spring or resort places either.

Curious as well if any of the resort TS restaurants have outdoor seating? I think Grand Floridian Cafe does but I’m not certain...

I just called the TA line. It's for my personal reservation for July. You can't even get into the hold queue!! They just say they have closed the phone line for now

I wasn't able to call yesterday because we had family visiting for literally one full day and that was yesterday so wasn't gonna sit on the phone all day.

Thank you! I guess my list is based on the restaurants that they announced with be opening, but I didn't note that. A lot of yours are Epcot restaurants and unfortunately we don't eat there much (I'm a Disney disgrace in that regard). I'm going to fill myself with Food and Wine this year though.

The only one I can think of is Chef Art Smith's Homecomin, they just built a new covered patio. But we tend to eat at the same restaurants when we go which is likely why I'm not thinking of any others.
