This summer, do as the locals do and end the day lounging in the sun with a drink in hand and food on the table. These are some of our favorite patios for al fresco drinks in Park City.
The Spur Bar & Grill has an ideal rooftop for people-watching. Sip on cocktails crafted from local spirits and devour a brick-oven pizza or the popular Spur Burger. The Spur collaborated with locally owned Alpine Distilling to create the Spur Whiskey, try it in a refreshing whiskey sour to start your night off on the right foot.
The Bridge Café and Grill next to Park City Mountain’s Town Lift is the go-to spot for Brazilian-influenced American fare. And their patio is the perfect place to land after a day spent hiking and biking on the resort. You can’t go to Park City’s only Brazilian restaurant and not order the Caipirinha, the national cocktail of Brazil!
Café Terigo is found in the heart of Main Street and offers pleasant outdoor seating under a canopy of trees. They serve French and modern Italian fare, like steak frites and cioppino, with extensive wine pairings.
No Name Saloon is famous for its buffalo burgers and signature cocktails like the Spicy Paloma and Main Street Fizz. You’ll find eclectic décor and local characters hanging around this beloved joint.
Windy Ridge Café has an off-Main Street location that maintains a casual, calm atmosphere amid the summer bustle. This hideaway is ideal for low-key summer evenings when comfort food is calling. Their Orange Elderflower Mule and Whiskey Ginger Lemonade pairs well with an evening spent relaxing on their breezy patio.
Grappa is located at the top of Main Street and offers an intimate, quiet patio surrounded by greenery and lit with dreamy string lights. Grappa is known for its rustic Italian cuisine. Start the night off with a Twisted Negroni (or two).
Boneyard Saloon & Wine Dive is a short drive from Main Street, but the distance doesn’t sacrifice the venue’s stunning rooftop views. Their fine comfort food is often complemented by live music and around 20 beers on tap!
Silver Star Cafe is nestled next to the Silver Star chairlift and has a menu of long-loved dishes — some of which were featured on the Food Network show “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.” Sit outside on their patio and try the osso bucco.
Versante Hearth + Bar, in the Park City Peaks Hotel, debuted “Versante on the Lawn” last summer, allowing patrons to enjoy wood-fired pizzas and fresh pasta al fresco. The Silver Queen cocktail has wonderful fruit notes to accompany the perfect summer evening outdoors.
