1. Browne family vineyards

The best spot to catch some rays and drink good wine on hot summer days, the Browne patio will not disappoint. There is often music at Land Title Plaza right next door, which makes for a great ambiance for lounging outside.

2. Marcy’s Bar and Lounge

Known for their quality, hand-crafted cocktails and eclectic menu, Marcy’s boasts a large patio garden dining space that’s perfect for a relaxing evening after work ...or even later if you’d like. Marcy’s is the only late-night bar in Walla Walla open until 2 a.m. every night!

3. Big House Brew Pub

While we recommend sitting at the table right by the fireplace on these summer evenings, the Brew Pub’s huge patio is a great place to grab a quick drink and enjoy some of their many American-style cuisine options.

Tucked away in a spot behind Crossbuck and Walla Walla Steak Co. on 2nd Street that is rich in history, this is an incredible, beautiful patio space created to enjoy sunshine, good food, and even better beer.

With one of the most magical patio areas in Walla Walla and some of the best fine dining, a visit to Passatempo is a must. Their patio even includes an outdoor grill, where their talented chefs cook some of the food served.

7. Bacon&Eggs

While their patio is small, the opportunity for people-watching is unmatched, and the food is impeccable. Stop by for a breakfast cocktail, sit by the flower boxes and enjoy the beautiful views and colors of Walla Walla!
