Now that summer has cooled into some breathable, comfortable weather, it’s time to head back outside, and out of the air conditioning. If the Texas heat has kept you off the patios when you’ve gone out to eat, fear not ‒‒ cooler days and nights make it just right to check out some of Austin’s most chill (but not too chilly) patios.

Moonshine Patio Bar & Grill

Known for its excellent bar and top-tier service, the Moonshine is the place to be when you’re looking for a great dinner on a great outdoor patio. A combination of fine restaurant and laid-back vibe makes the Moonshine a must. Ask the servers for suggestions on meals and drink complements. They won’t steer you wrong.



Trio at the Four Seasons

 

Trio, the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel on San Jacinto, is perhaps the best outdoor dining in Austin. It certainly offers the most varied experience. Besides the steak, seafood and extensive wine list, Trio is literally just a few steps from downtown, but with views of the beautiful Lady Bird Lake. You can enjoy your meal and watch the sunset ‒ and the bats that fly out over the lake.

 Roaring Fork

Looking for a relaxing patio to complement your meal? How about the best Sunday brunch in town? Lucky for you, you only have to try one place. Roaring Fork’s open-air patio is the perfect spot to dine and take in panoramic views of Quarry Lake, from the restaurant’s Stonelake location in North Austin. Relax with family and friends and enjoy happy hour on the patio starting at 4 p.m.

 Olive and June

 

Olive and June offers the definitive outdoor dining experience in Austin. The restaurant’s treehouse patio makes you feel as if you’re actually dining in a treehouse. Tucked away in the quaint Austin neighborhood on Glenview Avenue, Olive and June offers numerous sharables and small plates to let you unwind with friends and family.

Second Bar + Kitchen

 

 Second Bar + Kitchen, in the hot Warehouse District, isn’t just a great place for outdoor dining and drinks, it’s a great place for late night dining and drinks. Second Bars + Kitchen offers an upscale setting in the heart of downtown., and is right near the W Hotel and the ACL-Live Moody Theater . Check out the  Black & Blue Pizza while you take in the vibe.
