13th Floor, Baltimore

This nightspot offers a breathtaking view of the city from the top floor of the old Belvedere Hotel. Settle in for happy hour and watch the dusk settle over the city as its lights gradually begin to twinkle on. The calm won't last much past 9pm though. That's when local dance bands take the stage, the disco ball begins to swirl and the club transforms into a slightly silly dash and thoroughly retro dance party. Two Saturdays a month, the Cajuns take over and local disco takes a backseat to local. The 13th Floor also serves excellent bar food, including a small selection of delicious desserts.
