## Grosse Pointe Farms: sushi, small plates and a date-night meal

[Blufin Sushi](/places/blufin-sushi), at 18584 Mack Ave in Grosse Pointe Farms, pairs a patio with a menu of sushi and other Asian entrees. Lunch, dinner, small plates and dessert are available, with vegetarian and vegan options among the offerings. The bar serves beer, wine, liquor and cocktails, and happy hour includes food and drinks. Dogs are allowed in the outdoor seating area. For families, a children’s menu and high chairs make this more than a date-night choice.

At 97 Kercheval Ave, [Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe](/places/dirty-dog-jazz-cafe) offers outdoor dining alongside its intimate indoor setting. The Grosse Pointe Farms restaurant serves upscale, eclectic cuisine, including small plates, comfort food and vegetarian choices. Dogs are allowed outside, and reservations are accepted and recommended for brunch and dinner. Its live-music offering is part of the restaurant’s identity, but the supplied facts do not place performances on the patio. Choose it for an outdoor meal with cocktails, wine or beer rather than assuming an outdoor concert setting.

[Howlers And Growlers](/places/howlers-and-growlers), at 15222 Charlevoix St in Grosse Pointe Park, puts craft beer at the center of the visit with a rotating selection of 40 taps. Its full kitchen serves pub fare, comfort food and small plates, including vegetarian and vegan options. Outdoor seating allows dogs, while a children’s menu and high chairs support family meals. Free lot and street parking are useful practical features. The business opens at noon on Saturday and Sunday, with later starts on its listed weekday operating days.

For cocktails and bar food, [The Charlevoix](/places/the-charlevoix) has outdoor seating at 14927 Charlevoix St in Grosse Pointe Park. Beer, wine and liquor round out the drinks selection, and happy hour covers both food and drinks. Table service is available.

[O'Flaherty's](/places/o-flaherty-s), at 15119 Charlevoix St in Grosse Pointe Park, is the choice here for outdoor seating with a drinks-and-socializing focus.

The family-friendly gastropub has a children’s menu and high chairs, and it accepts reservations. Its listed operating days begin at 4 p.m., so plan around an afternoon or evening visit rather than its broader meal-category listings.

[Sidecar Slider Bar - Grosse Pointe](/places/sidecar-slider-bar-grosse-pointe), at 17051 Kercheval Ave in the City of Grosse Pointe, centers its menu on gourmet sliders, barrel-aged cocktails and craft beer.

## Grosse Pointe Shores and choosing your stop

The supplied listings contain no Grosse Pointe Shores business with documented outdoor seating, so this guide makes no patio recommendation there. Across the other four Pointes, choose by the kind of visit: Grosse Pointe Farms for sushi or a table-service meal, Grosse Pointe Park for craft beer and cocktail bars, the City of Grosse Pointe for burgers and sliders, and Grosse Pointe Woods for an outdoor breakfast or coffee stop.
