Summer has a tendency to breeze by. Take advantage of the sunny weather and make the most of summer. Go out & explore the food scene of your city, whether you just moved in or have lived there for 10 years. Regardless, new stores and restaurants are consistently popping up.

Enjoy the best part of restaurant dining at home by creating your own little patio café. For a party of two, Summer Casual suggests picking a Bistro Set. Bistro Sets are ideal because they do not take up a lot of room and serve as a great option for those with limited space. Our Erin Bistro flaunts a retro style with a lively blue and white striped outdoor wicker weave. This whimsical bistro seamlessly adds fun and charm to your personal café. Bon appétit! 

 Erin Bistro comes with 2 chairs & 1 table (Available in store & online at Orchard Supply Hardware)
