This Riverside bar and restaurant serves up cocktails, snacks and even Turkish brunch on a year-round patio that's fully heated, covered and festively decorated.

Let snow sprinkle down on you, or head under a huge outdoor covering at this Bloordale spot for food and drinks. The patio is fully heated, and they have all the mulled wine and hot toddies you need to warm your bones.

Eighteen30

Heaters, ample covering and lots of foliage mean the patio at this Entertainment District cocktail bar is still a steamy place to unwind with some nibbles and drinks like mint juleps and lychee martinis.

A fully covered and private patio is ultra-charming and Parisian at this French restaurant on West Queen West where you can tuck into steak frites by candlelight.

A crisp pint of Guinness on this Etobicoke pub's heated and covered patio might just make this month passingly bearable, so keep calm and support this mainstay that's been around for over a decade.
