As soon as Friday afternoon hits, you can find us outside on a patio with some friends + that frozen slushy drink we would never order if we were sitting inside. We rounded up a few spots where you can soak up the sun and enjoy summer specials.

Tin Lizzy’s Cantina | 1025 Woodruff Rd

🐕 Dog-friendly? Yes

🎷 Live music? Yes

🗓 Reservations? You can request to sit outside using OpenTable – even if you don’t get an outside table, the garage doors at the bar open up to the patio

⏱ Busiest hours? Tuesdays for $2 tacos after 2 p.m.

🌟 Bonus: Be on the lookout for their new Howl at the Moon Parties on the first Friday of the month this summer (with Lunazul Tequila specials)

Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar | 1025 Woodruff Rd, Suite 101D

🐕 Dog-friendly? Only service animals currently but plans to be dog-friendly soon.

🎷 Live music? It’s a bit too small for a band.

🗓 Reservations? Not for the patio unless there’s a large party

⏱ Busiest hours? Happy hour from 4 – 7 p.m. (Includes food – get the buffalo tots)

🌟 Specials? Summer specials include a pina colada milkshake, berry lemonade, and (of course) Bad Daddy’s Amber Ale.

Wild Wing Cafe | 1025 Woodruff Rd, Suite K103

🐕 Dog-friendly? No, since they share a courtyard with Hollywood theatre but you can sit outside during the winter thanks for some amazing heaters.

🎷 Live music? Yes

🗓 Reservations? Not unless there’s a big party, or you call months in advance to reserve or rent it.

🌟 Specials? Definitely don’t miss their marg specials for Cinco de Mayo

⏱ Busiest hours? All day on the weekends.

Formula for the best patio photo: You + your drink, taken by the person sitting across from you. Bonus points for wearing sunglasses.

P.S. If you need more variety, here are some other awesome patios to hang out this summer: Yard House, Firebird’s Wood Fired Grill, Grimaldi’s Pizzeria + Tucanos Brazilian Grill.
