I attended an event at this location on a Friday evening. The event host had a selection of food and open bar setup for us. The food consisted of a vegetable (raw and cooked) platter, butlered hors d'oeuvres (shrimp, ceviche, beef). There was also a station of chicken and beef sliders and salad. The food was delicious.They had themed drinks for us but you also order a cocktail of your choosing.We had access to the two indoor spaces; Mist Pavilion and Vapor Pavilion.The staff were nice and friendly and took good care of us.

Stratus is a rooftop club in Philly on top of the Kimpton Hotel. My boyfriend and went on a Saturday night. Drinks were on point thanks to the beautiful bartender. The wings and pizza were delicious. The DJ played a variety of music so it was definitely a vibe. I would return in the future.

We came here for a New Year's Eve event and it was very fun! The rooftop lounge is pretty spacious but the only thing is they didn't have any heaters so we were freezing! Can't speak much on the food but the espresso martini was delicious! Bartenders were also attentive and friendly!

One of Philly's best rooftop clubs to attend for social gatherings and dancing all night! Fantastic service is offered by the kind staff and the food and drink offerings can differ from one night to the next, but are always top-tier! Be sure to dress to impress!

5/5 for the absolute bangers the DJ played tonight (Saint James?) and his transitions between the songs/remixes were great!!Drinks were fine. Food was pitifully small and not well balanced in flavor according to a friend. Space was tight since the weather was so cold and everybody was avoiding being outside.

Stopped by the outdoor rooftop bar in old city. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday night. They had live music which was pretty awesome. The view was obstructed by a wall but the decor at the Stratus really added a good vibe. We had a cocktail at the bar. I got Fraise Tagada which was made of hennessy, strawberry syrup, grand marnier, lemon juice. I wasn't a big fan of this drink. It tasted very basic. For 17 bucks a drink I expect better quality.

I haven't been here in a while and upon returning I'm not sure why. It's an amazing place with a bit of a view. Not for dinner but for sure cocktails and conversations. The manager was very nice here.

This place employs quite possibly the dumbest, most ignorant, and useless excuses for human beings on the face of the earth. DO NOT PATRONIZE this place unless you want to be charged (upfront) exorbitant fees for a sub-par rooftop experience. Was there celebrating with a group of 7 for a birthday & wanted to grab some drinks on the rooftop. We didn't even sit down before realizing that they had a $100/minimum per person policy. We had eaten dinner elsewhere and wouldn't reach the $700 total necessary so we decided to go elsewhere -- Before leaving peacefully, we saw that we were already charged $350 (half the minimum), and they were completely unwilling to reverse the charge. Instead, we were physically removed from the 10th floor and told we wouldn't be getting our money back. So if you want to be charged $100 per person for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, this is the place for you. We have unsuccessfully tried contacting management, who I'm hopeful actually know how to read (unlike the bouncers who work here). If someone who is employed by or affiliated with this 'lounge' actually cares about doing the right thing and removing the $350 charge, please reply.

Pretty unimpressive all around, not worth any kind of hype. Food is cheap and boring, it isn't worth the minimum you're forced to spend for reservations. Definitely an ok spot for a drink, but even the view and atmosphere are kinda bad compared to other rooftop bars in the area. Service is ok, but again not great for a place that requires you to pay in advance, wait thirty minutes pass your reservation time just to be "seated". I definitely expected much better and was disappointed.

Not as pictured on siteFood and drink service (managers) and minimum bottle service is a scam. I see others have said same. Like 100 ripoff, cheap and mob like mentality.View is terrible.
