Worth it for the views! Cocktails are little on the sweeter side. First-come first-serve seating. Recommend visiting during the sunset 🫡

We had an exceptional experience. The bar is sophisticated and employs real mixologists and skilled professionals. This is all to say before mentioning the views. I am surprised to see reviews that say this place isn't amazing, it's a must go when traveling in Boston in my opinion

Unbeatable view and so cosy and Christmasy for a mulled wine 🎄 would love to see a few more vegan snacks

Casy was unbelievable; the hospitality and service here are unreal. What an experience. I have been waiting quite sometime for this spot to open. A must for anyone visiting or even if you are from the Boston area!!! The cocktail selection is one of the best in Boston!!!!!!!! Get here!

The bar was great, I hope there will be more non-alcoholic options too. Otherwise the atmosphere and whole experience was amazing. Thank you

The place has possibly the best view of the city to share a good time, I think you can have better options for drinks at the bar, some type of mycology or a more varied menu in cocktails

Went in the off season and it wasn’t crowded but WAS gorgeous. Not as good of views inside, so I recommend coming when it’s warmer. The food was good- charcuterie board, pretzel bites, and salad with lobster. Mocktail daiquiris were yummy

I’ve been twice and have had an absolute AMAZING time both times. Casy the bar manager is the best. He’s quite the mixologist and you can trust that any drink he creates will be a good one!!! Great customer service and experience all around, and of course the views can’t be beat. A perfect spot for a date night, night out with friends, and work outings. You won’t be disappointed, especially if you’re in Casy’s hands :)

Service was amazing! They had a menu of food options but we just grabbed a glass of wine to enjoy as we took in the views. It's cute space. The open-air terrace is amazing and love that you can grab a drink and enjoy the lounge several areas on the terrace, or even grab a bite if hungry. Just talking about the business, the service here is what stood out!

It's really great they have a bar in View Boston. I went with my mom before going to the exhibit part and it was a great call. Sadly it was really windy so we weren't able to go outside. The drinks were all around $18 and they were strong! They also have some snacks and dessert options here but I can only speak for the cocktails. The service was great and quick. It also has great views of the city! It does get busy, but we went around 2 pm on Saturday which was great because we got a seat and didn't wait long for our cocktails! Great space and looking forward to going back.

Food and drinks at Stratus was great. We had the crème brûlée which was amazing and I think that was the best crème brûlée that I have ever had. The Stratus is located at the top of the Prudential in Boston, where you are seeing views of Boston 360 views I should say because you can walk around and see all of Boston from the top so at the bar area you're able to sit down and have drinks have appetizers And enjoy the view. This was a great experience since this was my first time in Boston and I was also with my husband and so we had a great romantic evening, taking in the beautiful view of Boston. Our bartender was very friendly, shared the menu and took very good care of us.. If you are in the Boston area visiting, please make sure you check out the view. It's definitely a great experience to add to your trip while you're there.

Super nice view and ambiance with the seasonal decor for the winter season. $16 for a glass of wine is STEEP though but you just have to acknowledge where you are lmao. Busy but they control the amount of people so its never overwhelming

This bar capitalizes on the view... which it rightfully should. $25 for the privilege to take it all on during the winter months is a little steep, but when it's combined with a craft drink for $38, it somehow is more palatable. The drinks truly are delicious, especially when paired with their sweet and tangy wings. The service was ok, although the choice to have a singular bartender on a holiday for a tourist attraction was a curious choice. She was lovely, and doing her best, though it was obvious she was stretched. We had a lovely experience nonetheless. I can't wait to visit in the warmer months.

Came for the winter oasis and may be the worst service from a Bartender I've seen and my husband and I are both bartenders ourselves. Weren't even acknowledged for 15 minutes while she was making drinks for others around us it was literally like we werent even there. she didn't even look at us. she actually made drinks for the people standing behind the bar seats that came up 5 minutes after we sat down before us. When we asked if we could order some drinks she went 'Yup' definitely will never be back after that experience. We're in the business of hospitality I've ever seen anything like this. Extremely disappointed. Drinks were also not even good. I didn't catch her name but she needs an attitude adjustment

Unfortunately they were out of the ingredients to make the Candy Cane Forest drink. However, the Snow Miser and Blanco Bear were wicked tasty. We also ordered the Prosciutto Wrapped Scallops and the Baked Brie - all the appetizers were so good! I absolutely loved the Brie. The restaurant was so festive and beautiful. It was hard to decide if it was more beautiful inside or outside on the deck looking over all of Boston. Our server didn't seem extremely happy to be at work, but it didn't really take away from our experience.

Obviously a very cool spot for the view.... Kind of have to if you're traveling- the bar is alright, it aims for fancy and prices that way... I wanted a drink to soak in the view but the bar wasn't my favorite part

I had a great time at stratus a couple weeks ago! I only got one drink but it came garnished with a little rubber ducky which I thought was adorable. I took my drink out to the 360 patio and sipped while I took in views. There are little couches set up in the outdoor section which worked out great. I hope they put up heaters so this can be enjoyed in the colder weather to come!

Even though it drizzling when we arrived, we had a very pleasant time sitting at the bar where Jay, the bartender, was serving us and others. He offered creativity when anything in the menu didn't work for us. Very pleasant to talk to and great service! We got the Dirty Water Margarita rimmed with Tajin and I'm glad we can taste the tequila since I enjoy its flavor. The cayenne imparted a nice heat that rounded out the drink. Since Old Fashioned wasn't present in the menu, we asked if he could make it and he offered to smoke it! Not just once, but twice! He mentioned since the large ice cube will absorb smoke, he infused it during the finish and it was very pleasing. We didn't feel as though there were too much smoke overtones but rather was nicely balanced, although leaning towards more smokiness that we liked. Will have to come back when the weather is sunnier to take in the overall experience!

Lounge at the top of View Boston. Great bartender, delicious drinks and obviously the views are amazing. I thought they were very reasonable price wise for where you are!

Very new bar on top of Prudential building. We bought the package including the View and one drink. Service at the bar was excellent. Drinks were decent. View was breathtaking. Definitely worth a visit

Stratus, and the rest of View Boston offer amazing 360 degree views of Boston. It really can't be beat. With that said, you are paying for that view in the food/bar menu. $24 for an Old Fashioned is a little steep, but considering the view from atop the Prudential Center, I would still say it's well worth the $. Service was friendly and there was a decent amount of seating. We had no trouble finding a couch outside to take in the Boston skyline.

WOW! I visited Stratus on Thursday July 13th on my birthday and all I can say is wow. Visited around 5/6pm and was not crowded at all. Felt like I was literally in heaven with the views and aesthetic, it was also a gorgeous day, sun was shining, nice breeze. I literally felt like I was on vacation far away. We lounged on the couches if we were at a resort. Super chill everyone was relaxing. The bar staff was awesome. This is the place to be all around amazing. As we were getting ready to leave it started to get busier, but definitely a must if you can sneak in earlier before the crowd. Will definitely be retuning.
