With A Gigantic Heated Outdoor Patio, Malt & Vine Has A Cozy Gathering Spot To Enjoy Local Cuisine In Washington

Outdoor dining season used to be tragically short here in Washington… and suddenly, over the last year, it has become a year-round way of living. With heated patios, illuminated tents, and decked out igloos popping up all over the state, it’s safe to say that creative outdoor dining is here to stay, at least for the time being.

Redmond’s Malt & Vine recently debuted their new outdoor seating area, and it’s fantastic. In addition to sipping on some of the best local craft beer and boutique wines, you can feast on takeout from plenty of neighborhood restaurants.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life.

This is the largest outdoor drinking area in Redmond. It's located behind the building, and it's nothing fancy -- you'll definitely want to bundle up. But it does allow for safe, fun social gatherings.
The best part of this experience -- other than the fact that you'll be dining somewhere other than your living room -- is that everyone can find something they want.

Their Redmond location is right around the corner, and the Q-bao (pan-fried buns) and soup dumplings are out of this world.
Romio's Pizza & Pasta is right across the street, and pizza just happens to pair equally well with beer and wine.
