Drink And Dine On These DC Patios This Spring And Summer

Cantina Marina - 600 Water Street SW

Located right on the Southwest Waterfront, this seafood/Cajun dive bar and eatery is a Washingtonian favorite when the weather is warm. With an enormous open-air patio area and two full-service bars, Catina Marina is the go-to place to for tasty margaritas and picturesque monument views. Close proximity to the Nats Stadium makes their bi-level outdoor deck especially popular before and after baseball games. Tip: If tackling the short walk seems like a monumental task, boat ferries to the stadium are available starting an hour before game time. [Photos via]
