Beautiful location, amazing views and great drinks. Staff members were not exactly welcoming or friendly.
Service is embarrassingly horrible. Will never return here. View is cool. Atmosphere is nice. But the service is so bad it hinders the experience. So many other rooftops and places to frequent in this city. Seems like they take their real estate for granted.
We only stopped by here for a half hour but it was packed early on a Saturday night. There was already no unreserved seating at 6 PM. You grab one drink, take a few selfies with the great view, and then find a place where you can relax a little more. The clientele is very mixed on a Saturday. Some people obviously coming to be seen and others look like they just rolled out of bed. My husband says it gets a lot of business people on weekdays.
Wonderful rooftop. Beautiful views. Bartenders and staff were not friendly. Many tables open in the middle of the day but host said none were available to use.
The experience is not worth the cover charge of $10. There is no DJ, just music playing on a speaker. We went on Saturday afternoon and sat on the rooftop. We were given a high top table. To get a seat around the fire pit you need to pay the host extra or book a private party of 6 or more with the restaurant and pay the extra cost for that. You will not get a fire pit table/seat by just rsvp and paying the cover. The food is fine- nothing I would call great. The menu is limited. The views are nice but just not worth paying a cover for. I don’t think I’d go back. Not a horrible experience but it’s just not a vibe like I thought it would be based on the Instagram posts.
I absolutely loved the atmosphere. Beautiful and great location. Two issues. First they took 15 min just to come over and provide water. The manager walked by a good 5 times and continued to serve everyone around me but didn't stop once to see if anyone had tended to our table. I had to ask twice for service before i even got served. Our reservation was for 1 hour and a half. 15 minutes before our time to leave out waitress grabs her manager to complain that we were still there instead of coming over politely to reminding us. It made me and my friend super uncomfortable. Don't know if I'll go back. Good food and location but service was lacking
My lady and I were lucky enough to be seated off to the side away from the bar that over looked the museum. Was absolutely beautiful and worth the small cover. Frozen lemonade was ? and so was the margarita flat bread. Tyana was our server and between her and the gentleman that sat us, the hostess, everyone was super friendly and nice to us. We had a wonderful time and will be back! Highly recommend for a couple to get out and enjoy
I LOVE ASSEMBLY ROOFTOP!I have been here more times than I can remember at this point, and I have yet to be dissatisfied. If you're lucky, you'll get to snag a seat on the lounge sofas (which I was only able to twice so far), and if not sofas, at least a table. There have been times I was unable to snag a sofa and table and ended up standing - which is the only issue I have with this rooftop lounge. Limited Seating.Other than that, I love everything about this place, but most of all - their FROSE!! Best frose (frozen rose wine) I've ever had in my life, hands down. My husband has ordered an old fashioned a couple times, and he loves it as well. The view is one of my favorites because it's mostly people watching, and by people watching, I mean staring at the people playing in the Logan Square Fountain.Also, sometimes, they are closed for private events. So, if you're planning your night out solely based on Assembly, I would recommend calling ahead - there were a few times in my life, I found out after I had gone there that it was closed. Very sad times. Other than that, keep an open mind & I highly recommend!
Amazing views of the most beautiful part of Philadelphia. Worth the cover for the reservation going out there. The service staff was great and the cocktails are perfect. This does not get five stars from me for two reasons. The table were we were seated outside has a speaker right next to our heads; about 17 inches from our ears. This made it difficult to communicate. Also, the fondue was served at room temperature at best. Within 3min, it was cool. For the view and drinks, still worth a visit.
Great staff, Ciara was awesome. The drinks were delicious, along with the food.
