Spring in Austin is prime time for al fresco dining. It’s a sweet, and all too short, season where the air is crisp, the breeze is alive, and the sun is barely sparing us from the triple digits.
I love walking from restaurant to restaurant or hopping from margarita to margarita when the sun is shining and the sidewalks are crowded because everyone has either just gone for their morning Town Lake run or they are pregaming for their Lake Austin boat day. Sit outside on all the welcoming outdoor patios around town and enjoy the quality time with your people!
So, whether you’re in the mood for live music, the best tacos, a classic burger, or a kid-friendly space, I’ve rounded up my all time favorite Austin restaurant patios. Let’s hope they all have their misters ready for the heat!
