After a successful run in its downtown locale, the  people behind Drink, "the original fun bar," opened a second Minneapolis nightlife spot in 2005, complete with a giant rooftop patio overlooking Uptown. While the daily drink specials and cheap-but-tasty appetizers bring in a modest crowd during the week, DJ-spun music and energetic, bottle-flipping bartenders keep Uptown's Drink packed with partiers on weekend nights. Those inclined to dance take over the main bar area, but there's also space to sit,  play pool, and people watch. Plus, if the thumping bass and younger crowd gets too loud, the rooftop offers a more peaceful place to relax and enjoy the breeze.
