So, if you’re looking for some inspiration for your new outdoor kitchen and fireplace, then our guide will help you to find just what you’re looking for, so let’s get started!

Awesome Outdoor Kitchens With Fireplaces

Keeping It Rustic

One of the best things about renovating your outdoor space is being able to reinvent the way your backyard looks, and for those who are looking to achieve the perfect cross between modern and traditional, then something like this will certainly do the trick.

This brickwork is rustic yet classy, and will help to ensure that your outdoor kitchen is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The inclusion of a charcoal grill, like this one from Blaze Grills is a great way of being able to prepare delicious food while reveling in the warmth of the fire.

This outdoor kitchen will also benefit from the inclusion of a cover of sorts too, which will not only help to protect your kitchen equipment from the natural elements, but will also provide some much-needed shade during the days of the warmer months too.

Grill Under The Gazebo

If you’re looking for a more comprehensive outdoor space, then building something like this permanent gazebo structure is definitely going to help you spend more time outdoors.

Even during the colder months you’ll be able to benefit from the outdoor kitchen and relaxation area, and the inclusion of a fireplace will help to keep you warm no matter what time of year it is.

With this built-in Alfresco Grill, you’ll be able to cook delicious meals for your friends and family all year round, especially if you include a relaxed and comfortable seating area, so you’ll never have to give up your outdoor space, even if it does get cold.

Of course, no outdoor kitchen space is complete without some proper refrigeration, which will allow you to keep your cooking ingredients and your drinks cool while you relax.

For this, we’d recommend the Sub-Zero Under Counter Refrigerator, which will fit into your outdoor space effortlessly, without compromising on style.

Poolside Vibes

There’s nothing worse than having to get out of the pool and walk all the way to your outdoor seating area and kitchen to dry off and warm up. The solution? Place your new outdoor kitchen right next to the pool!

This outdoor area looks chic, and effortlessly blends in with the poolside area for a classy-looking outdoor space that is going to maximize your ability to enjoy the warmer weather. Plus the inclusion of a fireplace will make it much easier to come out of the water and dry off ahead of eating.

No outdoor kitchen will be complete without the necessary cooking equipment, and for a modern space like this, you’ll want something like the Mont Alpi 805 Black Series Kitchen, which is a comprehensive outdoor kitchen that will give you everything you need to elevate your outdoor dining experience.

Boasting With Bauhaus

The Bauhaus design movement is an interesting one, and focuses on geometry and angular designs, which can be used to great effect when attempting to create an outdoor kitchen space that is both timeless and unique.

The use of angular wooden slats to surround the fireplace and to create a sort of shade from the sun is perfect, and the color contrasts well with the angular and sleek-looking worktop and seating area found on the inside.

The addition of a Blaze Grill such as this will help to ensure that your outdoor kitchen is as functional as it is appealing, and will also mean that you can make the most of your backyard throughout the warm months of the year.

Go Botanical

One of the best ways to breathe new life into your outdoor space is to introduce more greenery, and as you can see in this example, the introduction of more plants and trees into the space is able to turn what would otherwise be a generic patio backyard space into something truly magical.

You can pick and choose the plants you include in your garden depending on how much care you want them to require, and it’ll be better to choose hardier plants if you’re someone who often forgets to water their indoor plants too.

No outdoor garden and kitchen is going to be complete without an adequate outdoor grill, which is why we recommend something like this Wolf Outdoor Gas Grill, which will help to ensure that you are able to grill and cook all year long.

In conjunction with some colorful yet tasteful outdoor furniture, as well as an outdoor fireplace to act as the centerpiece of the garden, then you’ll have a garden you won’t ever want to leave.

No kitchen like this is complete without adequate cabinetry, which is why it’s important to utilize something like this Alfresco Sealed Dry Storage Pantry, which will help to keep everything safely stored, even while you’re away from your kitchen.

Plus the inclusion of a fireplace and relaxed seating area will mean that you can enjoy your new outdoor space without having to go inside once it goes cold!
