Outdoor Dining in Frederick

As businesses across the state begin to reopen, one of our most missed industries, restaurants and cafes, is making a partial comeback as well.

Since we entered Phase II of Maryland’s Roadmap to Recovery Plan, restaurants have been granted the ability to provide outdoor dining options in addition to the carryout and delivery services they were previously limited to. For many this has been great news as the warmer weather allows for them to provide on-site dining options to those seeking the opportunity to get out and eat again.

Locations that already had the capability to offer dining on their patios found their path to reopening a little more quickly than others, but Frederick County establishments that do not have outdoor seating are able to apply for a temporary outdoor seating permit through the Frederick County Division of Planning and Inspections. Parking lots, common areas and sidewalks can be used for outdoor seating per approval of the application. Frederick City has also implemented their Pop Up Dining options that include closing a portion of Downtown Frederick on Market St. Fridays thru Sundays to allow for creative outdoor dining options.

We anticipate that the list of establishments offering outdoor dining will increase and change throughout the summer. We encourage you to contact the restaurant you plan to visit beforehand in order to determine hours of operation and whether or not you need a reservation to dine.
