Summer is around the corner, which means it’s almost patio season. We look forward to enjoying all of our favorite Kokomo summer activities, but we also love the simple things in life — like a nice dinner, lunch or drink on a patio. That’s why we compiled a list of the top outdoor dining spots in Kokomo.

Sun King Brewery

Making the very top of the list is Sun King Brewery located on charming Buckeye Street.

Sun King’s patio isn’t just a regular patio, it’s a cool patio because it comes equipped with outdoor games like corn hole and ping pong. Not only can you enjoy some delicious brews on the patio of Sun King, but they also allow you to BYOF — bring your own food!

Here’s the big selling point for us though- Sun King is family (and dog) friendly!

Located at 500 N. Buckeye St. A, Kokomo

Marble The Steakhouse

If we were to give out an award for “prettiest patio in Kokomo,” Marble might take home that award. You can experience and enjoy luxury dining, brunch and drinks on the Marble patio. If you’re looking to experience the good life, you can do just that here.

Located at 500 N. Buckeye St., Kokomo.

Roarry’s at GolfUp 31

This Top Golf-style driving range is now open at Wildcat Creek Golf Course! This indoor-outdoor dining area is perfect for a chill evening out on the range with friends or just getting a bite to eat while you watch on a comfortable patio setting.

Missy’s Family Restaurant

Oh, Missy’s… you warm our hearts and our bellies! A delicious breakfast and warm coffee enjoyed on an adorable patio? Yes, please. While Missy’s breakfast is superior, the Buckeye Street, OR the new Webster Street location serves lunch as well, so there’s plenty of time to get in max patio enjoyment and enjoy some ice cream while you’re there!

Located at 503 N. Buckeye St. and 4005 S. Webster St., Kokomo

Cooper’s Pub

Cooper’s Pub lucked out when it comes to outdoor dining space because instead of a patio, they got an entire alleyway! Cooper’s has utilized their great outdoor space this summer offering outdoor dining with plenty of tables and chairs for their customers as well as a stage for live music.

The Foxes Trail

The Foxes Trail patio is, hands down, one of the best place to be during the summer months! Not only is it located in beautiful downtown Kokomo with a view of the Wildcat Creek, the bike trail and the big beautiful bridge lights up at night, making for a perfect view. The patio seating also doubles as the best seat in the house during the Riverwalk Concert Series. You can enjoy local live music and enjoy a nice meal or, my personal favorite, the Long Island iced tea slushies on this 21-and-over patio!

Located at 305 S. Main St., Kokomo

3 Amigos Mexican Grill

The Buckeye Street ambiance continues with the abundance of outdoor dining areas available. Don’t miss out on this dining area at 3 Amigos located at 219 W. Jefferson St., Kokomo!
