Stratus Rooftop Bar and Lounge

Take in Philly's underrated skyline while taking in a finely made drink at Stratus, the rooftop concept atop Old City's Hotel Monaco. Situated 11 stories above the street, sky-high Stratus boasts a pair of tricked-out enclosed pavilions joined by a roomy common chill space and a modern bar. Unlike most open-air concepts, a smart series of heat lamps and a 30-foot fireplace allow it to stay open well into the colder months.
