Hi, there!
There are lots of caf�s that also have tables outside, in the open air, where we can have a cup of coffee, eat something, etc. In Portuguese we call it "esplanada", but I don �t know what to call it in English. Sidewalk caf�? Well, I really don �t know, so I need your help.
Thanks in advance!

Hi
I �ve heard several times the expression " terrace caf� " - I think it provides the correct idea, but I �m not sure if it �s the best translation.

Yes, in the US we call it an open-air cafe or a sidewalk cafe.
