With the weather warming up and Coloradans getting their vaccinations, many of us are itching to get outside and enjoy some delicious food. What better way to support local businesses than an outdoor brunch?
Follow along for our top 5 recommendations on Boulder County brunches — outdoor patio on the house!
Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse | Boulder
Let’s kick it off with a Boulder staple – the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse. Not only is the restaurant a beautiful and historical site, but it’s home to some incredible breakfast food.

Brunch is available at the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse on Saturday and Sunday from 10 am to 3 pm. You can make reservations below or at the link here.
Waterloo | Louisville
Up next is Louisville’s very own Waterloo. Located right on Main Street, Waterloo offers a fun atmosphere with great food, drinks, and music — and all on their beautiful, outdoor rooftop patio.
Their brunch is offered every Sunday from 11 am to 2 pm featuring Texas-inspired dishes. You’ll definitely want to prepare for a boozy brunch with drinks ranging from their “Corpse Reviver,” “Rosé Paloma” and classic “Bloody Mary.”
Not drinking at brunch? No problem! With biscuits and gravy, chicken fried steak, avocado toast, bananas foster french toast, and classic breakfast tacos, you’ll find something that hits the spot (while paying tribute to Johnny Cash).

Oskar Blues | Longmont
Live music, craft beer, and an outdoor patio. What else could you ask for? Welcome to Oskar Blues. With four locations across Colorado, Longmont is lucky to be the Boulder County location for this fooderie.
Although Oskar Blues veers more toward lunch than brunch, the patio made the cut. They’re open Sunday-Thursday, 11:30 am to 9 pm and Friday-Saturday, 11:30 am – 11:00 pm. They’re newly renovated and excited to show off the space — no need for a reservation!
