Spring in Nashville means it’s time to snag a sunny seat and enjoy the city’s best patios. Whatever you’re in the mood for, there’s a perfect spot for everyone. We’ve rounded up our favorite patios around town. Those spots that are ideal for cocktails, good eats, and soaking up that perfect spring weather.
Butcher + Bee
This has to be my favorite patio here in Nashville (and it doesn’t hurt that the food is phenomenal)! Butcher + Bee’s patio has always felt like an oasis. When I have a meal out there, I feel like I’m somewhere far away from Music City. Highly recommend having your next lunch or dinner on their plant-covered patio.
bartaco
Bartaco in 12 South is a must for spring hangs. The patio is spacious and perfect for people watching. There’s always something going on in this neighborhood. Just grab a marg, kick back, and soak it all in! We do recommend joining their waitlist.
Sadie’s Nashville
We’ll take any excuse to head to Sadie’s and, while we love their gorgeous dining room, their patio is a hidden gem! Their spacious patio is perfect for enjoying a spring day with a breeze. The best part? It’s covered! Enjoy any of their spring offerings while seated outside with your favorite friends. Don’t forget the whipped feta!
Frankies Nashville
What could be better in the spring than a delicious slice of pizza on a gorgeous patio? That’s when it’s time to head to The Pizzeria at Frankies, located in East Nashville. We suggest any of their pizzas paired with a cold bianco wine by the glass. See their full menu here.
Pins Mechanical Co.
If you’re looking for something a little more lively on a spring day, head to Pins Mechanical Co. for outdoor games. We’re big fans of the giant beer pong!
Phat Bites
Phat Bites in Donelson may be low-key, but their patio is big, laid-back, and underrated. The food is way better than you’d expect (trust us), and they always have great deals. Keep an eye on their Instagram for the latest deals and events. You don’t want to miss what they’ve got going on.
Redheaded Stranger
Redheaded Stranger’s patio is one of my go-to spots. It’s super spacious, the cocktails are on point, and they serve one of my favorite burgers in all of Nashville (yes, seriously). You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu though. The tacos are solid across the board and their Dr Pepper hot sauce? Life-changing. Add this to your spring patio rotation ASAP.
M.L. Rose
M.L. Rose’s patio in Melrose is a nice retreat from the busyness of Nashville. It feels private with the stone wall and greenery. Go stop by for a beer or two — and get an order of the sweet potato fries!
6th + Peabody
If you’ve been here for a minute, you know we love 6th and Peabody! Their outdoor space is gorgeous and their boozy lemonade is the perfect sip for spring. If you’re hungry, grab a couple of tacos. You can’t go wrong with anything on their menu but we’re big fans of the bulgogi!
