Covered tent on their patio. Two tabletop fire pits and heat lamps, overhead string lights, music, funky plants, and drapes for color and softness.

Their Mercado has goodies to heat and eat later!

Pleasant and most delicious dining on both front and back patios! May I recommend a bit of everything with their Chicken Kabob Mezza Platter -- hummus, baba ghanoush, tahziki and your choice of flatbread or raw veggie sticks. 

They’re glüehing this crazy world back together with hot mulled wine, cider and beer :-) You can bring in take-out from neighboring restaurants.

These two are often mentioned as they have great patios, but Tin Shed is closed until the Spring and Teote is only doing take out and delivery.

Lovely grounds overlooking the golf course (formerly Ringside) with a permanent overhead structure, lots of heat lamps, and even more patio space outside when the weather gets nicer!

So... I do have to mention that I have a strong preference for restaurants and breweries over bars in general. I've listed these FYI, but technically they're not the "cutest" go-tos and may have other issues like they allow smoking, get too crowded, too enclosed, or you have to go inside too much. Google them and use your best judgement :-)

Lovely dining just off Hawthorne and this forever favorite Portland restaurant. Experience extra attention to detail and safety.

They know how to adapt to their environment,  change their look, and make everything gorgeous here! What a beautiful patio dining experience! Phone first.
