Adding an outdoor kitchen to your home is a great way to convert your patio or yard into a fabulous entertainment space for those warm summer days and nights. Not only that, but they also increase the value of your home and have proven to be a great investment.
They expand your living space, make it easier to entertain and cook, and are generally just a great place for family and friends to gather around to make happy memories.
Outdoor Kitchen With Fireplace Ideas
Why limit the use of your outdoor kitchen to the summer months? By adding a fireplace to your outdoor kitchen, you can set the stage for cozy days and nights during the cooler months as well.

Having a firepit as your outdoor kitchen fireplace is the perfect way to make your backyard feel like an adventure. Firepits are not only great for providing warmth while you are sitting outside, but they are also a nice center point for people to crowd around and relax (not to mention that they are also great for toasting marshmallows and making smores).

This Tuscan-inspired outdoor area really has it all, a pavilion with an outdoor kitchen and fireplace. It is the perfect option for those who want some kind of covering but who don't want a fully covered outside area.
Having a warm fire right by the table for the cooler months or summer nights, a deluxe pizza oven, and BBQ all in one place. It is understated and simple but absolutely perfect.
4. Swinging from the Rooftops

Adding a pergola to your outdoor kitchen doesn't only have to be to shield you from the elements. It can also be used to add overhead lighting and to hang an extra couple of seats which will add something fun and different to the overall look of your outdoor kitchen.
We love this outdoor pavilion with a fireplace and kitchen!
5. Cooking Under the Stars

If you love the idea of cooking under the stars (or the sun) but still want some protection from the weather, this one's for you! Get the best of both worlds by adding a glass ceiling or some skylights over your outside kitchen. This set up is absolutely perfect for the home chef who loves to cook and entertain outdoors.
Outdoor Kitchen with a TV Ideas
6. Sneak a Peak

For the chef who loves to cook outside but still wants to sneak a quick peak at the game score while entertaining guests, this subtle corner tv is a fantastic option. It is small and out of the way ensuring that it doesn't detract from the conversations or entertainment happening in the outside area, but does the trick for a score check or for another display that isn't the focus of the day!
7. Host with the Most

On the other hand, if you want to host game day brunches, lunches, or dinners at home, a big TV may be the way to go! Having a covered outdoor kitchen with fireplace and a TV is a win (especially in football season). If you don't need to use it you can keep it off, but if you have people gathering to watch a game, it is nice to have a big screen so that everyone can see from wherever they are seated or standing.
8. Best of Both

If you can't decide between having a TV in your outside kitchen and not having one, we've got the solution for you! Having your TV in a built-in cabinet like this one is not only great for concealing it when not in use, but it is also great to provide some shade to see the screen on when it's sunny out. This is an especially good idea if you don't have a covered outdoor kitchen!
Small Outdoor Kitchen Ideas
Just because you don't have a lot of space in your backyard doesn't mean you can't have an outdoor kitchen.
9. Tucked Away

If you don't have a lot of outdoor space and would rather have a small outdoor kitchen that can be neatly closed up while you aren't using it, this is a great option. Not only does the door provide shade and shelter for you when in use, but it can be neatly closed and kept out of sight when you aren't using it.
10. Small but Functional
