Patio weather is here, and that means margarita weather is also here. (They're the same, you see. They're nice.)
And since we're sitting at our desks all day thinking about where to get a margarita and sit on a patio for happy hour, we decided to put some of our ideas on the internet in case you're doing the same.
There are many, many options, so we narrowed it down to 10 (13 if you count the multiple Illegal Pete's locations) to try to cut down on the tyranny of choice.
Have fun! Maybe consider sunscreen!
