It's the PERFECT time of year to wine and dine al fresco in Nashville—and who doesn't like to wind down with friends, have a beverage, enjoy some great eats, and of course people watch out on the patio of a fantastic local restaurant. There is just something about dining outdoors that is like no other, and if you're like me, it's one of my favorite perks of the warmer weather! So, without further delay, here are Experience Nashville's Top Patio Dining Destinations in Nashville:
Bella Napoli
Gosh, the patio here is one of the best in town—you literally feel like you are dining in a quaint little neighborhood alley in Italy. Every Wednesday through Saturday, there is live music starting at 7PM, adding so much to the overall experience. Don't miss out on the Margherita pizza, and be sure pair it with a cool Stella Artois or glass of Sangria. The perfect summer combo!

Jackson's Bar and Bistro
Another fav, and this is one not to be missed! The eclectic, cool crowd in Hillsboro Village ads to the already great vibe of Jackson's patio. An awesome drink and beer selection, along with plenty of delicious menu selections = a fun night out on the town. Don't miss the Beer Cheese Dip, Buffalo Feathers, Chicken Salad Torrado, Croque Monsieur, and lest not forget the Cookie Dough Eggrolls (to. die. for.). They are also carrying a Jackelope seasonal on tap that you would be doing yourself a disservice if you did not try!

PM
Asian inspired cuisine and a hoppin' patio? Sign me up! An eclectic mix of apps, sushi, and sandwiches accompanied with a plethora of cocktails and beers round up PM's ever-changing seasonal menu. Love the Belmont area of town, consistently decent service, and good food here.

Rosepepper
Possibly the most frequented patio of the list in my own personal life (possibly because it is the closest to my house...among other things), Rosepepper offers an experience that should not be missed. There is something about the best margarita in town, freaking awesome cheese dip, and the funky/fun atomsphere of East Nashville that make this the ultimate patio destination. Don't miss the Fresh Lime Margarita (their version of the "Skinny"— it's incredible), Cheese Dip (They serve it with taco salad bowl chips. I know, stop it.), and I'm a huge fan of the ever cliche Chicken Quesedilla and Chimichangas.

The Pharmacy
You've heard the buzz about the Pharmacy, now, do yourself a favor and go try it! Their patio (affectionately known as the Bier Garten) is HUGE, the food is cheap and tasty, beer selection is awesome, and the overall vibe is very, very cool. The attention to every little detail at the Pharmacy truly completes the experience. Don't miss the turkey burgers (available as an option on all the versions of their burgers), sweet potato fries, an eclectic beer, and an authentic soda from the soda fountain.

The Local Taco
I am in love with this place. Pitchers of Sangria, Korean BBQ tacos (my favorite taco, ever.), and chips and salsa make for a mighty fine night on the patio! Located in Sylvan Park, this restaurant is a hidden little gem tucked just outside of downtown Nashville. Be sure to check out their fun cocktail list as well.

Virago
One of the finest places to grab sushi in the city + a patio with a fabulous view of downtown Nashville = Virago. You can't beat the ambiance of this place, along with its level of quality in the food, drinks, and service. If you're looking for a place to impress a date or out-of-towner, this is the one of my "can't miss" suggestions. I took my sister and friends last year when they visited, and she hasn't stopped talking about it since (and it wasn't just the post-Steeplechase munchies)! Don't miss the V2 edameme, crispy firecrunch roll, stoned steak, and any of their cocktails!
