Summer in Park City is a magical time, and there’s no better way to soak it all in than with a refreshing cocktail in hand and a mountain view in front of you. Whether you’re winding down after a hike or bike ride, or just enjoying the evening on a sunny patio, Park City has no shortage of incredible outdoor cocktail spots. From Main Street staples to hidden gems in the surrounding towns, here are the best places to enjoy a cocktail outdoors.
Hearth & Hill
While somewhat new to the Park City restaurant scene, Hearth & Hill has quickly become a favorite for locals and visitors alike. Hearth & Hill is located in Kimball Junction.
Boneyard
Rooftop dining experiences are hard to come by in Park City, but luckily, Boneyard has us covered. With a fully stocked bar and views for days, this is a must-do for those who imbibe.
Corner Store
Since 1974, The Corner Store has been at the base of Park City Mountain and is open from 8:00 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. so you can enjoy a mimosa or cocktail whenever you like.
Blind Dog
Truly one of the best patios on this list, you’ll enjoy a backyard feel with a couple dozen of your favorite friends at Blind Dog. Tie up the pup, grab a drink, and play a little cornhole toss while you’re at it.
Windy Ridge
With seasonally crafted cocktails, casual outdoor dining, and comfort food with a twist, you can’t go wrong with this longtime stronghold from the Bill White Restaurant Group.
Silver Star Cafe
I don’t know what’s better. The food, music, space, or people. Luckily, at Silver Star Cafe, you don’t have to choose. Grab a cocktail and a seat and enjoy the show.
Montage
Burgers and Bourbon may sound casual, but in this Deer Valley-esque atmosphere, you’re sure to be transported to a place of craft spirits with mountainside views to die for.
St. Regis
If you’re looking for après ski in the wintertime, look no further than Brasserie 7452 at St. Regis Deer Valley. It’s got an extensive patio with fireplaces and views for days. The cocktails and wildflowers are icing on the cake.
The Spur
The Spur Bar & Grill hosts excellent musical acts with two patios for your outdoor cocktailing pleasure. Enjoy your sips while looking at Main Street or Suede Alley.
No Name Saloon
Since the turn of the century, No Name has been serving the people of Park City with food and drink. Its rooftop patio is open year-round and is one of the best places to sit and enjoy Main Street’s hustle and bustle.
Other Great Local Bars
If you find yourself just outside of Park City, great outdoor cocktails await in nearby Kamas and Heber City. These bonus spots offer small-town charm with beautiful mountain views. It’s worth the short drive to experience these local favorites.
Kamas
High Star
With some of the best views of the Kamas Valley and the Wasatch Mountains, I’m proud to say this outdoor cocktail spot is also in my community. There’s a little something on the menu for everyone, so give it a try.
The Notch
As long as you aren’t afraid of a little dive bar bathroom, The Notch is one of the coolest places around. Nestled in the Uinta Mountains up Mirror Lake Highway, it’s a must-stop on your way to or from your next hike or camp spot.
Heber City
Vintage Restaurant Bar & Grill
Vintage Restaurant Bar & Grill has unbeatable charm and plenty of patio seating. It is also a great place to catch a game or get lunch.
Back 40 Ranch House Grill
With beautiful mountain views, Back 40 Ranch House Grill is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail outdoors. This farm-to-table restaurant is an iconic location in Heber City.

I would add four . . . Pendry and Hyatt Centric at the Canyons and Fuego’s back deck and Salt Box (a Riverhorse restaurant) in Prospector.
