50 Best Patios & Beach Eats Restaurants With Outdoor Seating in West MI

Outdoor Dining in Grand Rapids & West MI

Dinner at one of West Michigan’s restaurants with outdoor seating is the perfect thing to do in summer after a long day chasing the sun.

From Grand Rapids to the Lakeshore, outdoor dining is a treat on a gorgeous Michigan summer night.

Choose from urban backdrop of downtown Grand Rapids, or find something on the lake.

Some outdoor restaurants are tucked in behind the main dining area for a more private feel. Others sit you right out front where you can be part of the action.

Whatever your date night personality is, you can find a picturesque outdoor restaurant this summer.

  1. Dockers in Muskegon. Outside deck and entertainmen right on the water. You can also get to it by boat from Muskegon Lake. Very nice!

  2. Thank you for this. My Husband and I actually just had a conversation trying to figure out where we could eat outside with a two year old. Thank you!
