rooftop bars

High-rise cocktail venues

Rooftop bars are drinking establishments on the top floors or roofs of buildings, prized for their views and open-air atmosphere.

They're fixtures of urban nightlife, often attached to hotels or restaurants: We watched the sunset from a rooftop bar in Manhattan.

The appeal combines altitude, scenery, and the feeling of being above ordinary street-level life.
