Project Overview

Located in the heart of Blue Mountain Village in Ontario, this restaurant serves visitors year-round at one of Canada’s most popular resort destinations. Surrounded by ski hills, hiking trails, beaches, shops, and restaurants, the village attracts a steady flow of tourists looking for food and drinks after a day of outdoor activities.

Despite the restaurant’s prime location, its outdoor patio was limited by unpredictable mountain weather. Rain, wind, and cold temperatures often prevented guests from enjoying the patio, leaving valuable seating unused during busy periods.

To maximize the potential of this space, the restaurant needed a solution that would protect guests from the elements while preserving the open, outdoor feel that makes patio dining so appealing in a resort environment.

Cabrio Solution

Cabrio Structures designed and installed a custom commercial patio enclosure that allows the restaurant to operate its patio comfortably in any season.

Project uses:

  • Commercial Patio Enclosure System
  • Single Peak Lean-To Roof
  • Twinwall Polycarbonate Roof Panels
  • 4.5mm Acrylic Bi-Fold Door System
  • Powder-Coated Aluminum Structural Frame

The full-length bi-fold door system allows the walls to open completely during warm summer months, creating a fully open patio. In colder weather, the enclosure can be closed to create a warm, protected dining space.

Result

Year-Round Patio

The enclosed patio allows guests to enjoy dining in every season, even during Blue Mountain’s snowy Canadian winters.

Increased Seating Capacity

The new structure expands the restaurant’s usable seating area, allowing more guests to be served regardless of weather conditions.

Improved Guest Experience

The enclosure protects diners from wind, rain, and cold while still allowing natural light and views of the surrounding mountain landscape.

Increased Revenue Potential

Since the installation, the restaurant has seen a noticeable increase in business as guests stay longer and more patrons take advantage of the comfortable patio environment.

Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal

Finished with a sleek black aluminum frame, the structure adds a polished architectural element that complements the vibrant Blue Mountain Village setting.
