Courtyards and Patios in Fredericksburg

As the rays of sun beam down on Fredericksburg for the summer season,  we felt it fitting to highlight some of our favorite courtyards in downtown Fredericksburg. If it is a brisk summer day, and you are looking for somewhere to sit outside, here are some wonderful spots with courtyards and patios in Fredericksburg:Outdoor Brick Patio with seating, large heaters and string lights.

  1. Courtyard Marriott – Surprised? We assume not; it’s right in the name! During your stay at the Courtyard Marriott, enjoy some sunshine in their back courtyard as you prepare to explore Fredericksburg. 
  2. Curitiba Art Cafe – A hidden gem behind a beloved gem, Curitiba Art Cafe’s tucked away patio is the perfect spot to enjoy an espresso or craft cocktail.
  3. Eileen’s Bakery & Cafe – Eileen’s is a bakery with so much heart, and their courtyard is no exception. Their Whipped Peanut Butter Cake only tastes better when savored on their back patio.
