Patios and outdoor dining in Boca Raton

Last checked Oct. 8, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Outdoor tables inside Boca Raton’s city limits are easiest to find downtown, on Federal Highway and on Via De Palmas. Outside downtown, two bars with patios are at Boca Center off Military Trail and on Yamato Road near Congress Avenue, and a breakfast patio is on St. Andrews Boulevard. This page lists only places whose own websites say they have a patio or outdoor seating.

How we made this list. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside Boca Raton’s city limits, the same data behind our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 8, 2026. We added Flanigan’s, Miller’s Ale House, Tap 42 and First Watch from their own location pages, because each page states its outdoor seating, and we checked every address against the U.S. Census Bureau’s geocoder. OpenStreetMap lists Patio Tapas & Beer on Southeast 1st Avenue; its own site now gives 504 Via De Palmas, and we use that. Coffee shops tagged with outdoor seating on Glades Road and State Road 7 are in unincorporated Palm Beach County, so they are not here. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. Run one of these places? Write to us to correct your entry.
