Best Patios in Nashville: The Ultimate Restaurant Patio Guide

The weather is gorgeous, so where should you go to eat? Someplace with a patio would be nice, wouldn’t it? Today, we’ve gathered our big list of the best patios in Nashville and listed them by neighborhood. This is your go-to resource all spring, summer and fall long for everything from huge patios to small ones that provide highly coveted seats! We didn’t cover the entire county, but we got a very good start.

8th Avenue/Melrose

M.L. Rose

Try ordering the Cobb salad, but ask for a fried egg, instead of the hard-boiled egg, on top for a twist on a classic. They have a huge beer menu, as well as a weekend brunch menu. Enjoy these dishes — and more — plus a cold beer on their newly renovated patio.

Pour House

Fun, fun and more fun. Located right near the Gulch, Pour House is known for beer, bourbon and burgers … and some of the most extensive outdoor seating in all of Nashville.

The Smiling Elephant

Everyone rejoices when this patio opens up, as we always want extra tables to chow down on the pad thai and more! It’s a tiny patio, but every extra table helps. [Note: no alcohol, no BYOB]

The Urban Juicer

More than just juice, Urban Juicer is filled with healthy meal options. So grab a fresh juice or smoothie, a healthy sandwich or salad and hit the front patio on a pretty day.

12South

12th Avenue South

12 South Taproom & Grill

We are always reminded of great food with great service with every visit to 12 South Taproom.

Bartaco

Since Bartaco made its way to Nashville in the fall of 2015, the patio has remained a popular spot — no matter the season!

Burger Up

Although one of the smaller patios in 12 South, it is still a favorite amongst diners — just as much for the burgers served as the atmosphere it offers.

Edley’s Bar-B-Que

The BBQ is delicious, but if pork is not your thing, the catfish tacos are pretty dang tasty!

Epice

Consistently amazing, the owner of Kalamata’s opened Epice and never missed a culinary beat.

Five Daughters Bakery

Why not enough a donut in the open air? Head to this 12South donut shop and treat yourself to something sweet.

Flipside

The entire front opens up to expose the tables for pretty day dining!

Frothy Monkey

If you are thinking Frothy is “only” a coffeehouse, stop that and grab a table for dinner. We really like the shrimp and grits, as well as the corn-crusted trout. We can’t wait to work through the rest of the menu, hopefully on the large patio!

Mafiaoza’s

If pizza is your thing, even if you are gluten-free, Mafiaoza’s is a must. Their happy hour is pretty amazing, as well.

Portland Brew

Overlook the bustling neighborhood of 12South while sipping on coffee that offers a taste of the Northwest.

Urban Grub

The back patio at Urban Grub has a secluded, cozy feel with a nice view of the bar.

BLVD

Another Arnold Myint joint, BLVD has some of the best fries around. But don’t stop there. But we needed to point that out, as sometimes we just want fries and cocktails!

Bongo Java

Located in the heart of Belmont, this coffeehouse is a popular spot for students and locals. They have some of the best coffee and their food hits the spot.

Chago’s Cantina

A hidden gem in Green Hills? Yes, such a thing does exist, like the back patio of Shalimar which serves up some of the best Indian food around.

The patio is large with TVs, as well.

McCabe Pub
