Rooftop Bars in Chester County, PA

Written by County Lines Magazine

Reach new heights this spring and summer

This May has been especially warm, and here at County Lines, we’re ready for an ice-cold drink and good company at one of our area’s watering holes. Here are a few of our favorite rooftop bars to kick back and relax at this season.

Brick & Brew

Brick & Brew

On a warm spring evening, the Havertown Brick & Brew’s rooftop lounge is the place to be. On Saturdays, listen to live music under the twinkle lights. On game days, watch the Phils on the big screen. Opening for the season soon. 31 E. Eagle Rd., Havertown. BrickNBrewPub.com/Havertown

Off the Rail

Take in State Street from above at downtown Media’s only rooftop bar. The new-and-improved Off the Rail features an enhanced menu and new cocktails — while keeping classics like The Rail and spicy margarita. 109 W. State St., Media. OffTheRailMedia.com

Serum Kitchen & Taphouse

Honorable Mention: Bistro on Bridge

While not strictly a rooftop bar, Bistro on Bridge’s rooftop beer garden is a great spring and summer hang. Sip brews from the groovy red beer bus while you play a round of Jenga or jumbo Connect Four — all while staying cool under the ceiling fans. 212 Bridge St., Phoenixville. BistroOnBridge.com
