Which Restaurant Is Best for Lunch Outdoors?

Today we kick off a weekly Patch contest that celebrates great local businesses. We are inviting readers to share their favorite places and services, from great restaurants to entertainment. (See the poll below.)

We debut the poll today by asking readers to vote on the best restaurants for outdoor lunch in Gulfport. Here are some of our favorite places. There are so many wonderful spots. If we're leaving one off of the list that you like best, please let us know in the comments, and we'll add it.

• Stella's Deli and Gelato
• T & Me Tea Company
• Yummy's
• Tangelo's Grille
• Smokin's J's Real Texas BBQ
• O'Maddy's Bar & Grille
• Neptune Grille
• Village Pub
• Pia's
• Peg's Cantina

Each week we will publish a different poll and ask readers to vote. Today's poll closes at 9 a.m. Friday, and we will announce the winner by noon Friday.

The winner will get a big shoutout from Gulfport Patch and an awesome "Best of" plaque to post on the wall of their business.

Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results and reviews on Patch Places. Please vote only once per survey, per Patch.
