How we picked cafes with outdoor seating in Croydon

Outdoor seating is the entry ticket, so a cafe without tables outside was left off. Within that set, the order comes from public feedback, weighted so a cafe with more of it counts for more. Each cafe's food and coffee notes are then set against the rest, so every entry names something the others do not.
