Best Social Distancing Patios

We have been really excited to see some of our favorite places re-opening in the past couple weeks. That said, as eager as we are to return to the dining out scene, we’ve been really cautious and only gone to spots we feel are taking all appropriate precautions. We decided to round up some of our favorite patios for you all! You can assume all spots listed have tables 6 feet apart or greater, all staff wearing masks, and require all patrons to wear masks when not at their table.

New Terrain Brewing

This Golden brewery is a new favorite of ours - we can't believe we didn't know about it earlier! They have one of the best outdoor spaces of any brewery complete with views of North Table Mountain. They have food trucks on certain dates, so be sure to check their site. Plus, they are dog friendly and have great beer! We recommend trying the gooseberry & lime seltzer.

Wibby Brewing

This brewery in Longmomt has a HUGE outdoor space. They have a large tent, so there's plenty of coverage if it's a hot day. They allow dogs (a must for us!) and have QR codes that allow you to order AND pay all from your table. They typically have a food truck so check their schedule online. Plus - great beer!

Acreage

This cidery in Lafayette is an all time favorite of ours, so we were happy to see all of the measures they were taking to make their restaurant safe. First off, they have a great outdoor space with mountain views. If you want to distance even further, they welcome you to bring your own picnic blanket! You won't have a waitress unless you're seated at a table, but you can order through the cider garden and enjoy delicious cider and snacks with an amazing view.

Avery Brewing Co

This brewery is a local favorite in Boulder. They’ve expanded their outdoor patio since COVID and it is huge. They have a full kitchen and an extensive beer list. Pro tip for those bringing a fur friend: check out the twin lakes dog park across the street before grabbing a brew.

Ace Eat Serve

We are loving the vibe of this patio! This restaurant in Uptown not only has a great outdoor space, it also has some seriously delicious pan-Asian eats. Think bao buns, ramen, & potstickers. They also have a fabulous cocktail menu. Plus they have a weekend happy hour!
