Up On the Roof
When the weather turns warm in the DMV, we all suddenly start looking up. Rooftop season is officially here and whether it is cocktails at sunset, brunch with a breeze or just an excuse to linger outside a little longer, there is no shortage of spots around town to do it.
We’ve rounded up rooftop spots all across the DMV for all your sipping and dining while taking in the view. Honestly, there are a lot of them and we’ve done our best to get them all on this list.
Not a fan of heights and more of a patio person? We’ve got you there too. Check out our Patio Pleasures roundup featuring all the courtyards, gardens, and sidewalk patios throughout the DMV.
