4. Graffiti Bar
Graffiti Bar isn’t technically out in the open because it has a roof over it; their website does describe it as existing on a “30-seat open air patio”. This bar is located behind the restaurant, Sampan, on S. 13th St. in Center City Philadelphia. You wouldn’t even know that it was there – only a small lit-up sign points the way down a long, desolate alleyway. But, at the end of the alleyway is a super chic bar with bumping music. Although it’s small and can get a little crowded, the atmosphere is still super awesome.
5. The PHS Pop-up Garden
This pop-up beer garden is right on Drexel’s campus at 36th and Filbert St., so it’s a super convenient place to grab a drink. PHS stands for the “Pennsylvania Horticultural Society,” so the flowers and other foliage are gorgeous. On a warm summer night, this is the perfect place to grab a calm, relaxing drink, enjoy the weather, the ambient lighting, and the scenery.
