Fifty West Burger Bar 7605 Wooster Pike, Columbia Township; 5224 District Park Drive, Deerfield Township There might truly be no better patio in town than what you’ll find at Fifty West. The brewery and burger joint feels like you’ve just arrived at summer camp. Sand volleyball, cornhole, people carrying kayaks down to the water – it’s like you’re at church camp but you can actually drink. Fifty West is also incredibly kid- and dog-friendly; just be sure to bring your sunscreen if all the overhangs are taken on a sunny afternoon. Photo: Savana Willhoite
