The Patio - Contemporary Fusion Restaurant
The Patio is a long-running café and restaurant on F-Street in Block 4, Clifton, tucked into a quiet residential lane rather than a busy commercial strip. It is best known for its garden-style outdoor seating under the trees, with a cosy indoor dining room for hotter days and evenings.
The kitchen leans continental with a fusion twist. Breakfast is a big draw here, with English and Mediterranean-style plates served from the morning. Later in the day the menu moves on to starters and tapas-style small plates, grilled chicken and steaks, risottos, fresh pastas and gourmet burgers. Desserts are a highlight too, from pavlova to rich chocolate options, and the café serves hot and iced coffees, teas and coolers alongside.
The Patio also hosts hi-tea on selected days, along with private dinners, birthdays and small events, so it is a popular pick for family get-togethers and celebrations. Walk-ins are usually welcome, but booking ahead is a good idea on weekends and for larger groups.
The restaurant is open every day from 10 AM to 12 AM. You can dine in, pick up, or order for delivery through The Patio's own website or by calling 0300 8291936.
Menus, prices and hi-tea days change from time to time, so check with the restaurant before you visit.
