As we move closer to the winter months, it's going to get a bit chillier here in the Valley.
Well, we can only hope anyway.
Which spells great news for those tired of the scorching temps.
Nothing says romance quite like a drink by the fire, right?
Here are seven spots around the Valley with great food, drinks and, in our opinion, some of the warmest patios:
Cibo Pizzeria
It may look like a small house -- but this pizzeria comes with quite the patio. Here you can gather around the fire pit and see the downtown Phoenix skyline. The happy hour's not so bad either.
WHERE: 603 N. 5th Ave, Phoenix
