Patio Bar & Pizza is a casual outdoor sports bar in Fort Lauderdale’s Progresso neighborhood known for sourdough pizza, craft cocktails, fire pits, and live music. Best for groups, date nights, and anyone wanting a relaxed patio vibe.

Overview

Patio Bar & Pizza sits in the Sistrunk-Progresso corridor just north of downtown Fort Lauderdale, tucked into a Progresso Drive commercial row where most passersby would never guess what waits inside. Step through the entrance and the space opens into a sprawling outdoor patio strung with twinkling lights, shaded by mature trees, and anchored by Adirondack chairs circling fire pits on a turf-covered lounge area. A full outdoor bar keeps drinks flowing while a large projector screens hockey and other live sports under the stars.

Inside, a second bar area lined with TVs and a solid drink selection offers a more traditional sports-bar feel for anyone dodging the humidity. The vibe lands somewhere between neighborhood hangout and date-night destination – casual enough for flip-flops, polished enough that the cocktail menu gets creative.

The real draw is the sourdough pizza. About ten specialty pies rotate on the menu, all built on a crust that regulars describe as crisp, chewy, and deeply flavorful. The meatball and ricotta pie is a crowd favorite – creamy ricotta layered over tender, savory meatballs. A cauliflower crust option holds its own for anyone avoiding traditional dough. Beyond pizza, the chicken wings get consistent praise for their crunch and seasoning, though the six-piece portion may leave bigger appetites wanting more.

Happy hour pulls a mixed crowd of after-work locals, tourists exploring the neighborhood, and groups settling in for an evening. The bar is LGBTQ-friendly and welcoming to solo diners, and dogs are allowed on the patio. Service tends to be proactive and warm, with staff greeting guests quickly and staying attentive throughout the meal.

Patio Bar & Pizza is closed Mondays. Weekday hours vary – Tuesday through Thursday openings range from 2:30 to 5 PM, while Friday and Saturday nights run until 1:30 AM. Reservations are accepted, which is worth noting for weekend evenings when the patio fills up.
