Broadway Oyster Bar · Downtown
Two covered outdoor spaces include a reservable beer garden with retractable umbrellas. Live music accompanies charbroiled oysters, jambalaya or catfish on the patio.
The Bellwether · Lafayette Square
The building-length, west-facing patio has windows opening onto skyline views. Order bison short-rib pasta and jerk-dusted fries at a terrace table.
Russell's on Macklind · Southampton
The partially hidden, below-grade patio permits dogs. Breakfast is a draw there; sandwiches come later in the day, with desserts to finish.
Sister Cities Cajun · Marine Villa
Louisiana native Travis Parfait and restaurant veteran Pamela Melton combine barbecue with New Orleans comfort food. The partly covered back patio extends to a large fenced greenspace. Order from both sides of the menu and sit outdoors when weather allows.
Byrd & Barrel · Dogtown
This Dogtown fried-chicken counter shares a spacious, partly covered back patio with Tamm Ave Bar. It is dog-friendly and has its own bar. Order a boneless fried chicken thigh sandwich with Nashville hot spice and a cold beer.
