This one is not on a rooftop but we included in error, so I hope you will forgive us.
Located at the Manteo Resort in the Mission, the patio at SmackDab is perfect if you’re looking to be close to the water but away from the busyness of downtown. As well, SmackDab boasts a wide array of different foods and B.C. craft beers for you to choose from. Ultimately, a perfect location for a quick brunch or a night out with the lads or the girls.
