Spring is my favorite time of year in San Antonio. The bluebonnets are out, it’s not 1000 degrees yet, and best of all, the patios are poppin’. With the decrease in COVID cases and rise in vaccinated adults, my family is just about ready to start hitting up some patios. If you’ve been looking for a great place to get some food and drinks while letting the kiddos run around, check out the list below! Let us know what we missed!
Dog and Pony
Dog and Pony is located off of Main Street in Boerne, and has a huge patio, as well as basketball courts and play areas for kids.

Mi Casa is my personal favorite on this list, and not just because it’s right down the road from my house! It has great food and margaritas, as well as a HUGE play area for kiddos.
