The Continental Midtown

The Continental Midtown is a bold and eclectic three-story restaurant and rooftop bar located in the heart of Philadelphia's Midtown Village, delivering a playful journey through retro-chic design and globally inspired cuisine. The rooftop penthouse level features an indoor and outdoor bar, a fireplace, full-grown trees, and vibrant mid-century decor, creating a warm and festive atmosphere year-round with views from Philadelphia's premier elevated patio. The food menu celebrates global flavors with a whimsical twist, ranging from cheesesteak egg rolls and Szechuan shoestring fries to French onion soup dumplings and Peruvian chicken — familiar yet never predictable. The cocktail program matches the inventive spirit of the kitchen, offering retro-inspired creations, a celebrated martini selection, craft beers, and wines. Lower floors feature a swinging jet-set mezzanine with basket chairs and a convivial main dining lounge. Inspired by 1950s coffee shop nostalgia filtered through a futuristic lens, The Continental Midtown is one of Philadelphia's most distinctively fun and flavorful rooftop dining destinations.
