Umbrellas are so last season. Give your outdoor drinking game an upgrade at Catalyst’s new patio bar and lounge, lined with sofas and wicker swings where you can while away a summer evening sipping cocktails under the Kendall Square sky. And speaking of cocktails, the crew at the outdoor bar has some special tricks up their (short) sleeves, just for the patio crowd.
