Dining Al-frosto 67% of us are left out in the cold this spring

Dining outside in the cold

Us Brits love to dine al fresco - but so far 2013 has done little for those who enjoy a salad in the sun or a pizza on the patio.

According to a recent survey by HospitalityGEM, 67% of us enjoy dining outdoors, with 37% of us wanting to sit in the sunshine. But when we eat outdoors we'll also find reasons to complain. Nearly a third of us are bugged when it comes to...well...bugs, and one in five of us are choked at having to share outdoor dining areas with smokers.

Whatever the weather though, one in 10 of us will still eat indoors, with untidy outdoor areas and poor outside table service cited as reasons for staying inside. And if the start of Spring is anything to go by, it looks like we'll be joining them for a few more weeks yet!
