Dinner by Heston Blumenthal s sumptuous terrace
Unless you were speed-dialling your favourite restaurants the second that the roadmap to recovery was announced in February, you may be thinking that the chance of securing an outside table in the UK is now less likely than a spring heatwave.
The River Café, for instance, is fully booked until August; there are no dinner reservations at Michelin-starred Hambleton Hall, and its terrace overlooking Rutland Water, until September.
Which is not to say that an alfresco table at one of Britain’s best restaurants isn’t out of the question this side of the summer solstice. There are Michelin-starred terraces reserved for walk-ins if you’re feeling spontaneous, while many of the restaurants that delayed their reopening until 17 May still have some alfresco tables available. Some of the finest kitchens in the country, meanwhile, save the outside seating for their more casual spin-offs.
