We’re so lucky to live in Austin. Although sometimes the heat can be unbearable, for the most part, it’s usually just the right amount of sunshine we want to be under. With plenty of patio bars on West 6th in downtown, you can enjoy the weather without the burn!

Some of the following spots are also restaurant patios, so why not grab some dinner while you’re at it!

Bar Peached

Bar Peached has one of the more unique patios, located under street level but still with a great view around. Before you read on, they usually book out in advance, so it would be smart to make a reservation right now.

Bar Peaches’ vibes are always fun, especially because they have one of the best happy hours in town. You have to try their spicy margarita! It’s got just the right amount of kick.

With a cute, blue setup outside and free parking (!), this should be on your patio bars on West 6th itinerary. Good luck finding free parking (or any parking) anywhere else.
