When it gets warm, Inwood locals flock to the patio at Garden Café to hear jazz. Trees and umbrella-covered tables offer shade on a hot night, while the selection of cocktails, wine, bottled beers, burgers and other classic American fare make Garden Café a go-to for the summer.

Las Tapas
Embrace the small-plate trend at this favorite among tapas lovers. Portions are surprisingly generous. The sangria (classic, Spanish, cava or peach) is tasty and the outdoor garden will make you dream of Barcelona. There’s always music playing (sometimes live), but never too loud that you can’t hear your dinner mates.
