    Find outdoor dining in Seattle, compare patios and rooftop bars, and check estimated sun hours before heading out. Sun estimates use the sun's position, available venue sun hours and local weather where available. Guest sun reports are separate observations, not a guarantee of sunshine at a particular table. Coverage is a selection of listed places, not every restaurant in the city. Browse free, or share a group poll to choose where to meet.

    Compare listed outdoor seating, estimated sun hours and places to meet in Seattle.

    • Sun forecasts, with limits made clear

      Compare estimated sun hours for 385 listed spots in Seattle. Calculations and venue-provided hours help with planning, but buildings, umbrellas and a table's position can change actual conditions.

    • Ratings where available

      Check available Google and Sun Map guest ratings alongside venue details. Missing ratings do not imply a place has been reviewed.

    • Live reports from locals

      Guest reports describe conditions someone observed at a venue. Where available, compare these with the forecast; a report is not a promise about your table.

    • 1 rooftops, filtered your way

      Browse available rooftop, waterfront and shade categories. Details depend on the tags and sun hours recorded for each venue.

    • Free, and no account required

      Search, sun hours, hours of operation and directions are free. Sign up only if you want favorites, check-ins and friend activity.

    • Choose a happy hour meeting spot together

      Pick a few venues and share a free after-work poll by message, email or any chat. Friends vote without an account or app. Check drink offers, opening hours and reservations directly with the venue; the poll does not book a table.

    FAQ – Seattle

    Which Seattle patios have sun right now?
    Browse 385 listed outdoor dining spots in Seattle and compare estimated sun hours. Sun calculations, recorded venue hours and local weather where available support the estimate. Guest reports are separate observations. Sunshine at a particular table is not guaranteed.
    What are the best rooftop bars in Seattle?
    Browse the rooftop category for Seattle where listings are available, then compare venue details, estimated sun hours and available ratings. Check the venue's own website for access rules and reservations.
    Is Sun Map free?
    Yes. Searching, sun hours, live conditions, ratings and directions are free, and you do not need an account. A free account adds favorites, check-ins, sun reports and friend activity.
    Does Sun Map work for shade and hot days too?
    Browse the shade category where venues have shade or shelter tags. Not every listing has these details; confirm umbrellas, covered seating and availability with the venue.
    Can I find late outdoor dining in Seattle?
    Compare estimated evening sun and recorded opening hours for Seattle venues. Sunset changes with the season, so evening sun is not always available; confirm dinner service with the venue.
    How can we choose a happy hour spot in Seattle?
    Choose a few venues on Sun Map, start an after-work poll and share its link by message, email or any chat. Friends can vote without an account or app. The poll chooses a meeting place, not a reservation or verified happy-hour deal; check offers directly with the venue.
    I own a restaurant in Seattle — how do I get listed?
    Claim your venue for free to update sun hours, hours of operation, photos, menu links and events. Verified owners appear with a claimed badge on their page.
