Many people like a coffee and a catch up outdoors when the weather allows. And those with dogs are always looking for cafés with outside space where dogs are welcome! So it's always useful to know where a delicious drink can be enjoyed al fresco, sometimes with a covered area to protect from the elements!
Read on for the best cafés and coffee shops with outside seating in and around the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. Please check businesses' websites for their latest opening arrangements.
There are plenty of opportunities for al fresco dining when you visit Windsor Great Park. Head for The Savill Garden Visitor Centre and walk through to The Savill Garden Kitchen’s terrace which has plenty of space and affords beautiful views of The Savill Garden. Or drop by the Virginia Water Pavilion Café. Find out more about Eating and Drinking in Windsor Great Park including the park’s takeaway facilities.
You’ll discover The Cuppa tucked away on a little parade on Stompits Road in Holyport near Maidenhead, selling delicious pastries, artisan breads, savouries and speciality coffee as well as gifts and cards.
