Where to Patio

Maybe you seek a sunny spot for people-watching? Or a buzzy spot to catch up (physical distance-style) with friends? Or a kid-friendly refuge with sun umbrellas?

The list of patios now reopened for business in Coquitlam is growing fast. You’ll find some suggestions below, and be sure to refer to their map with all businesses open for dine-in, takeout, and patio service online here.

Though not the entire list, here are some to try:

For Big Views

It’s hard to beat the view from Westwood Plateau & Country Club. Kick back for a drink and bite to eat at Fairways Grill & Patio or Rogues Bar & Grill, where you can gaze over into the skyline as far as Mt. Baker.

Also, try out the licensed patio at Eaglequest Golf, Sandwedges Café.

For Seeing Friends

Sometimes the view isn’t just about nature. For some people-watching on the patio, try Browns Socialhouse Town Centre & Schoolhouse, Cactus Club Coquitlam, Milestones Coquitlam or JOEY Coquitlam.

For a Craft Brewery

Head to Mariner Brewing for locally brewed beer on the front or back (pet friendly) patio.

For Pub Life

Thinking beer and wings? Try the patios at John B. Neighbourhood Pub, the Golden Parrots Pub, Woody’s or The Taphouse Coquitlam.

For Families

Check out ‘happier’ hour at Mr. Mikes Steakhouse Casual, which has a large, open outdoor patio. Other family-friendly patio options include Pasta Polo, Doppio Zero Pizza, White Spot, and Me-n-Ed’s Coquitlam. Kooks Cooks is also a great spot for breakfast and brunch with the family.

For Meat Feasts

Head to The Keg Steakhouse + Bar’s large patio, with outdoor heaters for those chilly evenings. And don’t miss the Rio Brazilian Steakhouse for all-you-can-eat barbecued meat – al fresco.
