If you look for restaurants that have patio dining, you’ll love the Lift in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Not only is the wraparound deck furnished with tables, but the owners have made the most of their property by extending their seating area onto the roof.
The food is fabulous but the best part about eating at the Lift in the summer is the gorgeous view. Located right at the bottom of Snow King Mountain, you’ll get a side of unrivaled scenery with your meal.
Lift Jackson Hole, 645 South Cache Street, Jackson, Wyoming
Lift Jackson Hole/Facebook With this restaurant’s convenient location, skiers often ski right up to it in the winter. It’s within walking distance of the main square in Jackson, though, so it’s no less convenient in the summer or for those who don’t ski.
The flat and spacious roof was an obvious choice for expanding the dining area.

Plus, it’s prime seating during Jackson Hole Live - you don’t have to fight the crowds, you can hear the music perfectly, and have a great meal at the same time.
Lift Jackson Hole/Facebook Jackson Hole Live is a summer concert series that takes place across the street from the restaurant at Snow King Ball Park. Different regional bands play throughout the season and sometimes national bands take the stage.
The food at the Lift is terrific, and you definitely get your money’s worth. Most of it is traditional bar fare, but the nachos are gigantic!
