The City of Mesa and the Downtown Mesa Association are excited to introduce a great way to "extend" patio dining for all of the restaurants in the downtown Mesa area--no matter the restaurant's outside capacity. Al Fresco off Main will be a designated area with plenty of outdoor, distanced seating where people can bring food they ordered from any downtown Mesa restaurant to enjoy their meal in the middle of downtown! Closing off half of the first block of MacDonald Street off Main, the provided seating will offer a safe, socially distanced, fine-weather dining option.
Al Fresco off Main will continue throughout April and be offered seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Beginning Feb. 12, the Downtown Dash delivery service will deliver your meals directly to your table! Order from a dozen restaurants online, give your order to the al Fresco host and Downtown Dash will deliver to your table for free! Downtown Dash hours are Thursday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
We've all missed live music performances, so al Fresco off Main is bringing it back! Enjoy local musicians at Thursday Lunchtime Concerts from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and at both Lunchtime and Evening Concerts on Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Visit the Downtown Mesa Facebook page for schedule.
The tables and chairs, provided by the City and Mesa Arts Center, includes fencing around the area, signage, hand sanitizer and wipes, and staff cleaning the chairs and tables throughout the day.
