BRING ON WARMER WEATHER AND PATIO HANGS!
Whyte Avenue + Old Strathcona is home to more than 50 patios at various local restaurants, bars & cafes! Whether you want to people-watch on the bustling sidewalks of the avenue, enjoy a cozy courtyard meal, or see it all from a rooftop – we’ve got a patio for you!
Note: all patios have varying opening dates and hours of operation. We recommend connecting with a business to confirm patio availability, some businesses may still be getting their outdoor spaces ready for the summer.

- There are 50+ options to choose from!
- Orange = most patios will have dedicated outdoor seating and fencing, and may have a boardwalk for pedestrians to navigate around them. Think rooftops, courtyards, and sidewalk expansions.
- Purple = Bistro patios are often a few tables & chairs on the sidewalk – a perfect way to enjoy the sights and sounds of the avenue. Think a few small two-seater tables near the business where you can sit and sip your coffee.
BUT, ARE THEY PET-FRIENDLY?
Yes! Well, some are…
Look out for the paw icon on the mural map to see which patios you can enjoy with your four-legged friends! & check out our Pet-Friendly Business Map for a list of shops and spots that you can visit with your pet into while exploring the district.
The patio map is updated annually at the start of the season. It’s always a great idea to call ahead and make sure the restaurant you’re thinking of visiting can accommodate your plans, including bringing pets or confirming accessibility!
