How we made this list. The places come from OpenStreetMap records with a Greensboro address, the same data behind our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 11, 2026, and against the U.S. Census Bureau’s city limits. A place is on this list only if its own site names a patio, terrace, beer garden or outdoor seating; OpenStreetMap marks several other places as having outdoor seating, but their own sites do not say so. We added Boxcar, The Bodega and Lawn Service from the Downtown Greensboro Inc. directory. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it.
