A backyard pool is the life of the party – until the snacks run out. If you spend much of your outdoor entertaining time bouncing between the pool and patio, it might be time to streamline. Integrating an outdoor kitchen with your poolside creates natural ebbs and flows when hosting parties or enjoying a family cookout.
Let’s look at the various ways outdoor kitchens complement pool areas:
- It’s Much Easier to Socialize. When the cooking facilities open onto the pool deck, you can effortlessly move between mingling with guests and preparing food. Outdoor kitchens allow hosts to be in the mix while grilling, making pitchers of drinks or tossing salad.
- Refreshments Are Much Closer to the Pool. Having outdoor kitchens positioned right alongside pools means snacks, beverages, and mealtimes are always close at hand for hungry swimmers who are ready to refuel. You can conveniently serve everything poolside, from icy drinks and chips to full meals hot off the grill, for a seamless dining experience.
- Poolside Shade on a Hot Day. Many outdoor kitchen designs incorporate overhead coverage to keep the chef cool. This shade also provides a welcome respite for anyone climbing out of the pool during peak sun hours. Your guests can chat comfortably while the grill master puts the finishing touches on lunch steps away.
