In Andover you can enjoy Italian food at and people watch at the same time. There are five tables outside during the summer months when the snow has finally melted.

Mike Staffieri, manager at Bertucci’s said he thinks people like to have the opportunity to enjoy the outsides because of the weather. “It’s more scenic,” he said.

During the evening at r it gets pretty busy said Jill Cantarella, manager. They have six tables outside on their patio. To keep safe from the sun they have canopy umbrellas. Located right in downtown Andover, there’s a lot of people walking around. Perfect to get in some people watching. This section is open usually until Labor Day weekend or until the weather starts to deteriorate.

“It’s a nice atmosphere,” Cantarella said. “It’s really nice to be out there.”

In North Andover check out restaurant for a nice private experience on their deck. The area offers table seating and a lounge area with coffee tables and couches, as well as a television.

Corilee DeAngelas, manager, said that there is awning over the tables, but the lounge area does not have one. There’s never much of a wait, but most people just relax in the lounge until a table opens up, DeAngelas said. “It' s a good place for people to come together and to sit sit outside and enjoy it,” she said.
