Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Middletown

We went for the Thanksgiving Day dinner. It was delicious, outstanding in every way…..fresh ingredients prepared perfectly! This was our first visit, but it definitely won’t be our last. Bravo!

New family tradition at coopershawk. Had 1:15 reservation. Got seated at 2. There seemed to be a break, so learned that next year may make a 2:00 reservation. Seemed to be a gap between lunch and dinner! S tarted to get crowded again around 3:45. Thanks for a great lunch/dinner! Will definitely be back! Loved our visit! Happy Thanksgiving!

Food was really good. Party had a mix of off the menu and the Thanksgiving specials, from burgers to sushi, to BBQ ribs. Service was fantastic for our big party. One entree was a little late to the table, but nothing terrible. Coffee and desserts followed, again, very good. We sat on the enclosed patio which had heaters and no noise. We did ask if the music could be turned down a little for conversation. No problem, and made dinner that much more enjoyable.

Great food and wonderful server! It is very loud and can be over stimulating. My dad has hearing aids and was struggling. It was his birthday and I wanted him to have the delicious fried chicken. The server treated him totally and even brought a wrapped chocolate cookie to take home!

Our first visit to Shire’s did not disappoint! Beautiful restaurant with great views! Katrina took very good care of our party of six. Chef does an excellent job creating unique flavor profiles. Tried the fried green tomato, beef Wellington and mussels appetizers. All were perfectly prepared and delicious! Our entrees included the pork chop, salmon, shrimp & scallops, and chicken roulade. Again all dishes were delicious!! The only negative was the chicken was a little dry and could have used a sauce to help with that; but the pea risotto that accompanied it was very tasty. The pear mocktail was lovely too!! Perfect place for special occasion dinner!!!
