Sixteen Short Pump restaurants and cafes with patios, outdoor tables or a rooftop, most at Short Pump Town Center and on Pump Road, with hours and phones.
Last checked 2026-10-19. Refreshed every three months.
Short Pump’s outdoor tables are mostly at Short Pump Town Center. The open-air mall lists several restaurants with outdoor dining, and Casa del Barco adds a rooftop bar. Off the mall, the patios are in the Pump Road and Wellesley shops south of West Broad Street, in the Green Gate and Vinery shops to the west, and in West Broad Village on Old Brick Road.
How we made this list. Short Pump has no city limits: it is an unincorporated part of Henrico County, so we used the Census Bureau’s boundary for the Short Pump census-designated place. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside that boundary, which also feed our local directory, checked on 2026-10-19 against each place’s own website or, for mall restaurants, the outdoor dining list on Short Pump Town Center’s site. A place is here only if one of those says it has a patio, outdoor seating or a rooftop. The list is alphabetical and is not a ranking or a recommendation. Nobody paid to be on it. Restaurants can write to us to correct an entry. Patios close in bad weather; call ahead.
