Here is a good list for Chicago: https://wanderlog.com/list/geoCatego...ars-in-chicago

Some glaring omissions, most notably The Up Room in Wicker Park (personal favorite). But certainly a comprehensive list of many of the most popular rooftops in Chicago.

San Diego has quite a few rooftop bars and restaurants. Many have exceptional views. And, you can sit outside year round.

Here's a nice one in Midtown that gives you great 360 degree views. Going during sunset is magical. I can see my condo in NJ from up here.

Seattle has more than you'd expect given the the fact that it's grey and rainy much of the year!

Savannah, GA has something like 14 or 15 rooftop bars downtown which is a lot for a city of 150,000.

I say Miami for the win. It has the perfect combination of quantity, quality, weather and killer views.

Nashville has to be on the list as the Lower Broadway area has incredible number of rooftop bars. And as the Music City, USA, the caliber of the talent in their bars is simply the best there is.

Nashville is where so many New York city bachelorette and bachelor parties end up.

I'd have to go with NYC and DC for this. They definitely have the best combination of volume and quality imo.
