Marion: The venison and antelope merguez sausage is dynamite. They also have over 100 beers on tap and the bartenders are super knowledgeable, so try something new!

Paris Taylor: If you're looking for a good thin pie with spacious indoors and outdoor seating, a slight grunge vibe, and over a dozen beers on tap, AGBG is the place.
Alexandros Plexidas: A bit expensive but the view towards Manhattan is very nice, especially during sunset. Enjoy it with a cocktail in the terrace sitting in a chaise longue.

Meg Farmer: Perfect day drinking on a sunny nyc wkend day. Outdoor rooftop views can't be beat, grab some friends and a pitcher, arrive by 3-ish to grab a table, the rowdiness sets in around 5.
honeywhatscooking.com: Breathtaking views! Come here for cocktails during sunset. Loved the mango mojito. Classic mojito was good, but slightly strong. Coconut shrimp was yummy.

Eater: Add this to the list of downtown rooftop spaces with a hip, modern terrace atop the Raffaello Hotel. The menu features a mix of seasonal cocktails along with a focus on bourbon and whiskey.
Patrick Finley (@pjfinley): You can find amazing views of the city from this rooftop bar. The service is great and a pretty stellar atmosphere. One of my go-to's in Chicago.
