Boasting not one but two sprawling patios — the first a converted parking lot out front, the second a cozier bamboo-shaded patio in the back — Bye and Bye is one of Northeast Portland’s more popular hangout spots. Sensibly priced cocktails, solid draft beer and wine offerings, and an ample menu of hearty 100 percent vegan food keep the neighborhood regulars returning in all weather. Bye and Bye is open for brunch on Saturday and Sundays.

Alberta is home to several bar patios worth a visit — including the Hilt and Radio Room — but Alberta Street Pub’s balance of spaciousness and seclusion puts it on this map. There’s enough room for covered and uncovered seating, smokers and non-smokers, with a stage in the corner for live music. The bar churns out plenty of whiskey drinks, mule variations, and slushies, with serviceable bar snacks like Cajun fried pickles.

Few Portland neighborhoods are as well-suited to bar-hopping as North Mississippi, and few Mississippi nights out are complete without a stop at the Rambler. Fire pits and a permanent patio roof keep the Rambler’s backyard bumping year-round. Duck inside the converted Craftsman for filling bar food with Southern-fried flourishes, a modest beer and wine list, and a killer happy hour margarita.

Taking up the torch — and location — of the dearly departed Psychic Bar, the Uncanny keeps the spooky vibes, iconic neon red windows, and killer patio going strong on Mississippi. Stretch out on a picnic table on the Uncanny’s long covered patio, heated by powerful overhanging heaters. House cocktails venture off the beaten path, including a dedicated New Orleans-inspired drinks section and an uncommon number of rum-based concoctions; the food is more typical elevated Portland bar fare. For further thrills, the Uncanny transforms into a Halloween-themed pop-up in October.

Fusing a passion for Portland (the rose) and Scotland (the thistle), the Rose & Thistle bears far less resemblance to the superficial imitation pubs that populate the states and more to the true spirit of an east Glasgow watering hole where regulars get together to watch footie, trade gripes about England, and knock back a dram. The large, multi-leveled patio has spots for sunny days and rainy ones, large groups and dates. The British beer list is one of the city’s best, the mixed drinks are strong, and the menu may not be entirely Scottish but does boast Portland’s rare Scotch egg.

It’s easy to pretend you’re somewhere balmier while sitting on the patio of Kerns’s Tropicale, drinking a piña colada served in a hollowed-out pineapple. The bar is small, relying heavily on the spacious, heated-and-covered patio outside; here, neighborhood locals bite into hearty tacos filled with cochinita pibil, nursing Oaxacan Old Fashioneds and hibiscus margaritas.

Just around the block from Nong’s, and just steps from several other Eater 38 luminaries, Rontoms is an ideal place to start or end an evening out. The vast patio consists of a covered section with possibly the highest patio roof in the city, along with a large deck dotted with leafy trees and umbrellas providing cover. Rontoms bartenders are no slouches and will mix creative originals or expertly crafted classics. Cool weather food menu highlights might include chardonnay-thyme brie fondue and seared ahi steaks. Sunday nights often feature concerts on the patio, so plan accordingly.

Rescued by new ownership in 2015, Produce Row has been nourishing Portlanders’ passion for craft beers and American whiskies in the east side industrial district for more than 40 years. The tap list is terrific, and the bartenders pour cocktails with care. The food menu isn’t the main draw, but classics like fish and chips, beet salads, and quinoa bowls won’t disappoint. The spacious, heated patio is protected by a high, translucent roof, affording both protection from rain but letting in precious light on gray days. Thursday and Sunday nights feature live music from bands and DJs, and on weekend mornings the patio is a site for brunch.

A Roadside Attraction is a dreamlike discovery on first visit, a surreal oasis in an already unconventional town. Patrons enter through the lush patio, full of twists and turns, hidden nooks, and inviting crannies. The decor, both inside and out, is as if a Victorian junk shop were dynamited next door, with each heirloom landing in unexpected but somehow ideal places to create a hypnotic atmosphere. The patio roof is just as eclectic with sections of metal, trees, and bare patches for your ideal sun (or rain) exposure. The regulars ratio is especially high here, with bartenders familiar with more than a few patrons’ usual drinks. A Roadside Attraction is cash-only, with an ATM onsite.

One of the livelier spots in the crowded inner east side bar scene, White Owl Social Club customizes its large patio — uncovered in the precious sunny months, covered with a fire pit in the rainy season — making it a welcoming spot all year long. After a series of pop-ups, White Owl’s kitchen is now in the hands of the Chém Gió team full time, offering Vietnamese drinking food. White Owl hosts DJs for both free sets and more prominent ones with cover charges — plan ahead for weekend nights by checking the bar’s Instagram account.

The Richmond Bar’s intimate patio centered around a single, circular fire pit makes this spot one of the best rainy season venues in stereotypically introverted Portland to meet new pals — what more timeless setting to make conversation than huddled around a warm fire? (For those out with existing friends or dates, heat lamps are happily available at other tables). Creative house cocktails and draft beers are supplemented by a healthy whiskey list. The small but hearty menu of pub fare is highlighted by poutine and hand pies, filled with your choice of boar or butternut squash.

Bible Club’s Prohibition-era schtick may intoxicate some and irritate others, but those in the latter category can find relief in knowing the late-season-Portlandia bowties and waxed mustache vibe is largely limited to the interior — the patio plays it fairly straight, with smooth-edged modern picnic tables and a dedicated, albeit somewhat more limited, bar outside. And don’t let the Boardwalk Empire decor deceive you, these bartenders are elite and make some of Portland’s best original and classic cocktails. The patio offers covered and uncovered sections and features regular DJ sets and live music — check Bible Club’s Instagram for upcoming performers.
