Outdoor Dining Denver Style – with Mountain Views
A Guide to Outdoor Dining Denver Style
You know what it’s like – the sun is shining, and the birds are singing. It’s the perfect day to soak up the sun (or the moon) and spend some time outside. But you’re also in the mood for a delicious meal. Whenever that happens, we seem to get brain fog, figuring out a place to go that accommodates both.
That’s why we decided to put the spotlight on outdoor dining Denver style. We’re highlighting a few top choices and providing a long list of alternatives. You now have a handy-dandy guide to turn to whenever you’re in the mood for a patio table.
Acova
Having a spacious patio, Acova is the symbol of Denver’s great neighborhoods. With its spacious patio, Acova accommodates adults and provides a separate play area that’ll keep the kids from saying, “I’m bored.”
Wide Range of Menu Items
Acova has you covered with a wide range of menu items like Honey Stung Fried Chicken and New Planet Fish ‘n Chips. But the desserts are on our radar. Apple Donuts, Berry Cobbler, Affogato, does it get much better?
Well, actually it does, if you’re in the mood for a cocktail. After all, you’re settling in for outdoor dining Denver style, so how does a lemonade with a twist sound? Acova serves the “I’m Your Huckleberry.” It’s 44 North Huckleberry Vodka combined with homemade lavender mint lemonade. We’re sold!
Address – Acova is in the LoHi area at 3651 Navajo St., Denver, CO 80211.

El Five
We’re going to stick to the LoHi area but take it to a new level, a higher one. That’s because El Five is on the fifth floor and gives you the choice of indoor or rooftop dining. The spacious outdoor dining area provides some of the city’s best views and the perfect setting for some top-notch Mediterranean cuisine.
Tapas Anyone?
You’ll find platters and paella to share, with plenty of vegetarian options. El Five isn’t one of the most inexpensive options for outdoor dining Denver style. But you get what you pay for, and it’s worth it!
Address: El Five sits five floors up at 2930 Umatilla St., Ste. 500, Denver, CO 80211.

Viewhouse Eatery, Bar & Rooftop
Viewhouse Eatery, Bar & Rooftop is quintessential outdoor dining Denver style. It also covers quite a bit of Colorado, with its four locations.
In Denver, Viewhouse Ballpark is on Market Street. The menu leans more toward bar food, although there are plenty of ways to order a burger, taco, pizza, and even a list of seven “mules.” You’re not stuck in Moscow if you want to try something new, like the Viewhouse Mule with cucumber vodka.
Address: Viewhouse in Denver is at 2015 Market St., Denver, CO 80205
