Eataly Boston announced the re-opening of Il Patio di Eataly: Boston’s Summertime Piazza for this season and we couldn’t be more excited!

In Italy, a piazza is a public square that holds gatherings, parties, festivals, and markets. To harness this type of atmosphere in the city of Boston, their menu features genuine Italian food and has a focus on the community through collaboration. Boston-based creators, nonprofit organizations, and local artisans, florists, and booksellers will come together to show the community their work and accomplishments throughout the season.
Cocktail Collabs For A Cause
Senior Beverage Manager Gregg Guertin will work with influential guests to curate drinks inspired by their favorite spirits. Every month, one of these drinks will be featured and a portion of the proceeds from each drink sold will be donated to a local organization (How cool is that?!).
Below is the schedule of each influencer as well as the local organizations they are giving back to!
