Patio Time!

The sun is supposed to shine throughout the weekend making it an ideal time to hit up some patios. Check out our list of the best places to grab a patio drink in Whistler.

The Longhorn

One of Whistler's oldest and most recognized bar's the Longhorn is a must visit on those long sunny days. Situated right in the middle of Skiers Plaza (bottom of Whistler Mountain) the Longhorn provides access for both skiers and mountain bikers coming directly off the hill. With the beautiful Whistler Mountain looking over the patio this spot is a great place to post up for an afternoon drink.

Citta's & Amsterdams Pub

We group these two pub's together because they are located right beside each other and essentially offer the same view. Located right in the smack dab middle of the Village these two spots see the most foot traffic in the village. Both establishments offer great bar food and affordable jugs of beer daily. When it comes down to it the only thing really separating the two is which one can you grab a better seat at. Next time you're in the village stop by one of these two joints for a quick pint and some sun.

Dusty's Bar & Grill

The only Bar and patio on this list located outside of the Village is Dusty's Bar & Grill. Located in Whistler's Creekside Village Dusty's is a mega bar situated right at the base of Whistler's Creekside Gondola. This beautiful location doesn't have the constant crowds of the Village which make it a great place to grab a pint and relax. There's plenty of room outside so getting a spot shouldn't be a problem unless there's a special event running that night. Smaller crowds and amazing views make this place a can't miss when you're in the Creekside Village.

Brewhouse Pub

Slightly removed from the heart of the village this pub offers great views of both Whistler & Blackcomb Mountain. The Brewhouse is also located right beside Whistler's Olympic Rings and Olympic Plaza. On sunny days, this patio is always busy and offers great local beers and burgers. If you're looking for a great place to escape the Village yet still remain close by check out the Brewhouse.
