On top of those awesome attributes, there are no less than seven fire pits, numerous special events sections, and an entertainment and gaming area. Sounds pretty awesome here at Offshore, doesn't it?
If you choose to imbibe, there are plenty of artisinal cocktails, wine, beer, and hard seltzers to choose from. And what's better than sipping on a cocktail with views you can only experience at this rooftop bar?
The dinner menu features selections from the raw bar, pizzas, shareable plates, and entrees. There's even a kids' menu if you decide to bring the littles.
On Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m., brunch is served! Enjoy an egg dish or avocado toast and pair with the bottomless mimosas for an awesome weekend adventure.
