Boston-area patios and rooftops are opening just in time for warmer weather.
The intrigue: The only thing better than longer days is getting to watch the sunset from a patio over dinner or drinks.
The latest: Rooftop @ Revere will have a soft opening Monday, including a Boston Marathon afterparty.
State of play: Boston's outdoor dining season officially runs from May 1 to Oct. 31, but rooftops and patios on private property are already drawing customers.
- Head down Newbury and Boylston streets, and you'll see tons of patio options, from The Salty Pig to Atlantic Fish Co.
