7 rooftop bars for spring drinking

POSTED: Wednesday, March 20, 2013, 12:42 PM

At such great heights we convene to celebrate the start of spring with local libations that are sure to uplift your spirits. Sipping in sidewalk seating is swell, but why not up the ante at one (or all) of these rooftop bars and restaurants? Ranging in cuisine and style from the ultra-plush Nineteen (XIX) on the 19th floor of Hyatt at The Bellevue to the cozy, casual Revolution House in Old City, Philly's open air bar scene has something to offer for everyone. Nineteen (XIX) and Vango boast some of the best cityscape views around while Continental Midtown and The Corner carry classic cocktails that are sure to appease the springtime drinker in you.

    They all sound like wonderful places to go in the summer to be safe from the flash mobs. I lost a purse to one of them last year! Of course, I can`t say more because I am white and this is Phila and anything I say will label me a racist.

    Sorry that you lost your purse to a flash mob. Now, who'd you lose your brain to?

    There are better joints with rooftops hangouts, then the ones just mention . One of my favorite ones is located in the Badlands. The hottest chicks in the city hang out there. Nobody there asking me what the hell I do for a living. Just having fun in the hood.

    Are they beds at that rooftop bar in the picture? That's strange. Sheets and pillows? People must get very toasted there and pass out.

    Why not just o list of ALL the bars, and we can decide which is best for us? What is the criteria to make the list?
