The warm weather of summer has arrived and it’s time to take your party outdoors. Enjoying a special event doesn’t have to happen at your home, you can get a great atmosphere and wonderful service at some of the many outdoor/rooftop bars around your city!
We asked a few of our Party Host Helpers, who are located all around the country, to shared their favorite outdoor spots for impromptu celebrations. Whether you’re in Philly, D.C., NYC, L.A. or Chi-Town, these are great outdoor locations for celebrating a birthday or coworker’s milestone or getting together with a few friends just to enjoy the weather and a tasty cocktail. Be sure to check these great locations for a gathering of friends and have some fun this summer!
