Denver is full of awesome patios.
Whether you're looking for some downtown people-watching or want to imbibe in the 'burbs, we asked Live Urban agents to share their favorite outdoor happy hour spots...we bet there are some on this list that you haven't heard of...let us know what you think!
Mark said:We LOVE the patio at Rioja on Larimer Square for the great apps, fun people, and that sidewalk side location gives you a front row seat to the street scene. Club kids, fashionistas, and tourists!
Randi said:Avanti!The concept alone is wonderful...add sunshine, great views and amazing food. Perfect trifecta!

West 29thin Wheat Ridge(2013 West 29
th)This is the most lovely patio in Wheat Ridge! Sparkly lights overhead, amazing food, and a great happy hour. I can't wait for patio season!
Kassidy said:My ultimate favorite outdoor restaurant space is
the little forest at Forest Room Five . Enjoy a uniquely Coloradical experience around a campfire amongst the aspens and evergreen trees. Around every turn, there is something unique to experience in this space. The owner actually lives on the property and is constantly adding intrigue to the space... a work in progress! The duck is fantastic if you are looking for dinner!

Telegraph in West Wash Park (Alameda and S Penn). Great neighborhood location, great creative cocktails. and happy hour east and west coast oysters.
Kate said:My favorite patio for happy hour is
McLoughlins at 16th and Little Raven. They have an incredible 2 for 1 Happy Hour that goes until
7pm, and given that I live directly upstairs from them, I don't have to go very far to get there!
Lauren said:When you aren't looking for a loud packed patio scene Solitare's tucked away patio is the perfect spot. Filled in by trees to shade you from the sun, this spot is my favorite West Highlands secret.
Brad said: HiJax, which is the rooftop patio of Jax Fish House in City Set. I like it because it has great views and is the only rooftop patio in the area And it's closeto where I live ;)
Get out there and enjoy some Colorado sunshine with your favorite craft brew...with more than 300 days of sun every year, you have plenty of time to check out all of these! Any that we missed? Let us know!
