Irwin's, Rooftop bar terrace in Philadelphia, United States.
Irwin's is a rooftop bar and terrace in Philadelphia that occupies the top floor of a historic building in South Philadelphia. The space features modern seating and bar service overlooking the cityscape, with a layout designed for mingling and relaxation.
The building was constructed in 1936 and originally served as a school before undergoing renovation and reimagining in recent years. The rooftop venue now operates within this transformed structure while maintaining some original architectural elements.
The space serves as a gathering point where locals and visitors mix on summer evenings, drawn by its outdoor setting and social atmosphere. The decor blends remnants of the building's past with contemporary touches, creating a place that appeals across different age groups and tastes.
The rooftop is exposed to weather, so visiting works best during warmer months when the outdoors is comfortable. Weekends tend to be busier than weekday evenings, so timing your visit accordingly helps ensure a better experience.
Hidden inside is Salvatore's Counter, a small chef's bar with a rotating menu that releases reservations monthly and sells out quickly. This intimate spot offers a completely different experience from the rooftop and appeals to those seeking culinary focus.
