Rooftop @ Revere

"This one of those outdoor spaces you may have heard people talking about but haven’t checked out yet, and we’re here to tell you to go as soon as the weather allows. (They plan to reopen for the season in early May.) It’s the largest rooftop lounge in Boston, there’s often live music and you can rent a cabana for your crew or just hit the bar like a normie. The cocktails are summery — you’ll see a lot of specialty spritzes — and they serve plates like tuna tartare and toasted sesame hummus with pitz and veggies." - Tanya Edwards, Eater Staff

"There aren’t a lot of things in Boston that could be described as Miami-esque, which we’re mostly fine with. Drinks on the beach would be nice, but we’re good without a bunch of middle-aged men in Guy Fieri shirts trying to find the foam party at Señor Frogs. But with cabanas, a (kiddie) pool, and cream-colored lounge chairs, the roof at the Revere Hotel in the Theater District comes close to approximating South Beach (sort of). The lobster rolls, sandwiches, and charcuterie will keep you happy as you get another drink." - joel ang, dan secatore

"The Revere Hotel’s newly renovated rooftop bar will open for the season on May 19, featuring more space for drinking, new food and drink menus, and summer-friendly options like sangria and mango margaritas." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal

"The Rooftop at Revere is, shockingly, a rooftop at the Revere Hotel. It has cabanas, an indoor pool, decent bites, and is the perfect place to take your cousin from Miami to demonstrate to her exactly how much Boston is not Miami. It costs $20-30 dollars to get up here during the day, but it's free after 5, so it's a good option for happy hour drinks and sushi." - Dan Secatore
