Outdoor Dining & Patio Enthusiast

I'm a patio hunter at heart—someone who believes the best meals happen in fresh air and good company. For the past decade, I've traveled across the US for work and pleasure, and I've collected a mental (now digital) map of incredible outdoor dining spots in every city I visit. I'm drawn to discovering hidden gem patios with authentic character, whether that's a rooftop bar in Minneapolis, a dog-friendly brewery courtyard in Denver, or a historic tucked-away garden restaurant in Charleston. I started Best Patios Near Me because I wanted to share that same excitement others feel when they find their new favorite outdoor spot. When I'm not exploring patios, you'll find me with a cold drink, my rescue dog Murphy, and usually a notebook jotting down details about the vibe, food, and whether the seating works for a long afternoon.
