Go Al Fresco In NYC: 10 Downtown Spots For Outdoor Dining

Hudson Clearwater

Dubbed West Village's "secret restaurant," Hudson Clearwater is one of New York City's original speakeasy spots. Hidden behind a boarded up store front with the only entrance being an unmarked green door at the back of the restaurant, this spot is a remarkably charming and delightful dining experience. If you're looking for a pleasant way to spend a Sunday afternoon, perch yourself at one of their rickety courtyard tables and order up a Hudson Mule, a refreshingly delicious blend of Vodka, ginger beer and lime.
