The sun is out and so are the people. Restaurants and bars with patios are seeing a bump up in the outdoor crowds.

Keith Reilly owns O'Reilly's. He says St. Patricks Day is always busy for the bar, but the nice weather made the crowds even crazier, The weather helped keep the patio busy all day and night.

Reilly says that people have been out stopping by the bar to wait on the traffic to clear during the week while enjoying the nice weather on the patio.

In Broad Ripple its the same. Crowded patios line the streets. Christopher Lindstrom was hanging outside at the Broad Ripple Brewpub Sunday afternoon, I love the weather it's just perfect to be outside.

He says its not just people that love the weather, Dog loves it. He is just going to lick the camera. He loves it.

Business owners tell us that restaurants and bars with patios usually see an uptick in business when it warms up, but its not usually this early in the year. None of the owners we spoke to were complaining though.
