What People Are Saying About The 13th Floor

In Short – Literally on the 13th floor, invigorating martinis and live reggae or mambo music lure young professionals onto a small, festively lit dance floor. The nearby contemporary cocktail lounge is laid out in rich burgundy and black hues. Leopard print rugs lend a playfully swank touch, but the window seats with a bird's eye view of downtown are the prime real estate. Two modern bars of glistening faux cracked glass serve any upscale cocktail you can dream up.

Saturday night surprise

by kc76 at Citysearch

Although I usually stick to the popular bars in Federal Hill, Canton, and Fells Point, a friend had recommended I check out 13th Floor on Saturday nights. I had been in there in the past and was not overly impressed, but decided to head over with some co-workers after dinner at Brewer's Art. We were expecting to arrive to the normal house mix that the bar is known (unfortunately?) for, yet before the elevator door even opened were greeted with the familiar sound of Kool & theGang. Drinks were average price for a Saturday night, and the crowd was fairly diverse in both age and ethnicity. Interestingly enough though, the dance floor was packed with people who just seemed to be out for a good time. The DJ kept things moving along very well and played the mood of the floor perfectly depending who was out there. Songs ranged from late 70's hits up to last week's top 40. Overall we had a great time, and the music/dancing is probably what ended up keeping us there until last call.

  • Pros: Music, View

Come for the view and you'll be ok

by missmimimao at Citysearch

I frequented the 13th Floor to see bands that I liked, and I usually went with friends, which meant that I always had a great time. Their happy hours can also be mellow and nice on a day without too many people. Although I'm usually accompanied, I always end up having interesting conversations with people I meet there. The drinks are so-so, but I'm more of a dancer than a drinker so key for me was picking the right night with good music; the view is spectacular so even if it's too loud to chat, you can always let your gaze wander over the cityscape; and the space is small enough to feel cozy but large enough so that you can move about and mingle with others, if that's what you're looking for. I think it's a pretty good scene for Baltimore!

Great View.....Horrible place

by csbmore at Citysearch

This bar has great views...and NOTHING else going for it. There is a difference between a run down "dive bar" that cool people go to and a run down bar that run down people go to. The 30 $ I spent between parking/cover and 1 quick round is the best money I ever spent.....I means I will never go back!

  • Pros: View
  • Cons: Decor, People
