At LOCAL, patio season comes with options. LOCAL features two covered back patios — each with its own atmosphere and personality — giving guests multiple ways to experience one of downtown Lawrence’s favorite nightlife spots.

The main level patio offers a laid-back, social atmosphere that’s perfect for casual drinks, after-work meetups, game day hangs, and late-night conversations. Covered from the elements and tucked behind the main bar, it gives guests an outdoor feel while staying comfortable through unpredictable Kansas weather.

Upstairs, the second-story patio creates a completely different vibe. Elevated above downtown, it’s a more intimate and versatile space that’s ideal for birthdays, private gatherings, cocktail nights, small celebrations, and group events. The upstairs setting gives guests a unique perspective of LOCAL while still keeping the energy connected to the rest of the venue.
