Best Rooftop Bars in the Triangle | Eater Carolinas

"All are welcome at Velvet Hippo, including VIPs. Very Important Pups have their own special “yappy hour” from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the weekends, a nod to the owners’ dog Griffin. Creative cocktails like the Wabi-sabi, with wasabi-infused coconut cream and local rum, adorn the menu. DJs often spin beats to help keep spirits as high as the patio." - Elliott Harrell
