We have been very fortunate living in Taiwan during this pandemic times. I have felt much safer here than when I was in the US and I could stop worrying about it on a daily basis.
However, as Taiwan moves into the next phase of Covid, living with it, there are some who would take extra precaution of not getting it. Seeking out outdoor dining options is one of those.
Thus I put together a quick list of place that have outdoor dining options or outdoor-ish, which I define as not being enclosed by four walls and have good ventilation.
All of these places I have eaten and I can generally recommend.
Five O'clock - Google Maps listing - Although all or most of the all-you-can eat bbq places on the island would qualify to be under this list, we list this one the most and probably the one with the best selection of veggies, so great for the vegetarians out there.
Simple Eats - Google Maps listing - generally opened 10am-6pm this places serves stir fried rice nooldes which i think is the best I've had on the island and have free broth which states amazing and great for hydration.
Seaside Cafe - Google Maps listing - There is now a new wooden deck built on the outside where you can sit and enjoy your cup of joe.
My Roll - Google Maps listing - great outdoor lawn area to enjoy your food from My Roll and they also serve Mountain Dew, one of my favorite sodas from my childhood.
小本愛玉 - Google Map listing - This place has a small deck area on the second floor.
海岸海景熱炒 - Google Maps listin - the stir fried place with the best view. One of our top spots to bring new friends and guests to eat at.
Ocean Looking Ice - Google Maps listing - one of my favorirte places on the isalnd. One of the best scenery. Offers coffee, tea, beer, ice cream and pizza. All the classics.
夏味鮮海鮮 - Google Maps listing - the best stir fried in town - they have some outdoor seating which is where you would probably want to sit anyways during the best of times as all the noise inside seems to bounce against the walls pretty hard making for a pretty noisy meal.
相思麵 - Google maps listing - probably the most famous and popular noodle place on the island.
Island Bistro - Instagram account - The soon to be older sister of Island Burger, opening in early May this place has the best terrace to view the sunset. Will serve the best Western cuisine on the island for brunch, afternoon tea and dinner. Coffee and espresso-based drinks will also be available.
Island Burger - Google Maps listing - simply the best burger on the island if you like the In n Out California style burger. There are four seats to eat at the burger stand.
