Summer is on its way, and with the warmer weather comes the chance for Ohioans who have been cooped up for months to venture outdoors. What better way to enjoy those rising temperatures than relaxing on a patio with delicious food, refreshing drinks and great friends. With that in mind, Latitude 41 restaurant in the Renaissance Downtown Columbus Hotel hosted a May Day grand opening party on May 1st to kick off patio season. The event included complimentary appetizers, drinks and music to get patrons in the mood for the summer season.

Now, restaurant patrons and hotel guests staying for an Ohio weekend getaway can enjoy live music and appetizer and drink specials on the patio every Thursday throughout the month of May.

Latitude 41 is known for its natural American cuisine based on the best, freshest ingredients and crafted from seasonal local fare. They specialize in combining traditional flavors with a new world style, and boast a dining room with a vibrant atmosphere in addition to the al-fresco dining experience on the patio of this downtown Columbus restaurant.
