jws patio

JW's Patio

A contemporary take on Mediterranean delicacies, JW's Patio is a place that you need to try. From calamari to grain bowls, gyros, scallops and lasagna, JW's Patio will keep you coming back for more, and of course a patio that can't be beat with live music scheduled regularly.

Crazy Cajun Patio

Crazy Cajun

As the largest patio in Beaumont, Crazy Cajun is the area’s go-to for crawfish (when in season) with seats right next to the colorful mural dedicated to our local delicacy. Year-round, there are seafood platters like creative twists on local favorites like crawfish mac and cheese and boudin burgers.

 

Mellow Mushroom patio

Mellow Mushroom

Outfitted with industrial fans and a dual indoor-outdoor bar, Mellow Mushroom is the place to relax with a pie and beer. Their pizza is made with a signature Sweetwater dough that makes it all the more cravable, and the mule flights are always a crowd-pleaser.

Neches River Wheelhouse

Neches River Wheelhouse

For waterfront dining in Mid-County, Neches River Wheelhouse is the place to watch the boats come in while subtly drifting away. Expect stellar surf and turf, Cajun favorites, and craft cocktails on their newly expanded palapa patio that looks like a surf shack meets tiki hut.

Madison's Patio

Madison’s On Dowlen

A Southeast Texas staple, Madison’s is the area’s go-to any time of day. Their newly revamped pet-friendly, covered back patio features swings, loungers and double decker seating that's perfect for brunch or dinner. You can catch live music and deejays on any given night on the indoor and outdoor stages while you grub on burgers, wings, sandwiches, and salads.

Dylan's Patio

Dylan’s

Newly renovated, the patio at Dylan’s in Port Arthur is one of the best adult playgrounds in Southeast Texas with a true backyard party feel. Expect Mexican and American favorites like nachos, wings, and Southwest eggrolls that’ll taste all the better once the drinks get flowing.

5 Under

5 Under Golf Center

Interactive gameplay and free-flowing refreshments make 5 Under Golf Center one of the most unique dining experiences in Beaumont. Home to Southeast Texas’ only double-decker outdoor setup, you can rent a bay to snack as you swing or eat, drink, and be merry on the standard patio (no golf required). They often have live music and unexpected menu items like injectable donuts.

High Tides

High Tides

Coastal views and Cajun eats are on the menu at High Tides in Bridge City. As one of the area’s only boat-in dining spots, the lively atmosphere will have you convinced you’re at a beach party. They recently added a Bloody Mary and oyster bar along with some extra shade and swings. Stop by for a cocktail or seafood platter and make it summer year-round.

Little Woodrow's

Little Woodrow’s

Located in Beaumont's West End, Little Woodrow’s outdoor swings and fire pits are prime real estate for people watching and nighttime revelry. A rotating selection of food trucks feed hungry bar patrons while numerous televisions play the latest sports rivalry.
